Very nice. I can't get my panel lines and weatherstriping to look nearly as sharp as yours.

One suggestion, paint (or use a marker) around the edge of the headlights. They'll look more real with black edges.

Very clean DC2s. Super sexy. Keep it up, especially with Hondas!

Re: 2 Honda Integra DC2s

for all my panel lines, I use the tamiya acrylic smoke and lightly thin it down. I then take it and place it into the panel and let the capillary action do its thing. I'll have a little run over outside the panel line. I wait for the paint to dry then take a very very light amount of thinner and wipe off the excess paint. The area may be a little dull after taking off the paint so it may need a touch up of polishing. This time you have to be very careful not to get any polish into your newly painted lines.

Thanks for the recommendation, I just got too anxious to finish the model so I did not have the time to paint around the headlights.

Will: what can I say? I Love Hondas, 90% of my collection is Hondas

Re: 2 Honda Integra DC2s

Looks great. Both paint jobs are nice and shiny. Speaking of panel lines, you missed the gas refill door and door handles?

I try not to overdo it. Sometimes, overdoing the panel lines, takes away from the whole effect. Leaving some out actually brings the model out better and keeps some realism IMO.

I use tamiya grits and finish off with 3M hand glaze

I can understand that. My method of 'not overdoing it' is to use a darker shade of the body color instead of black or dark grey. You might give it a try and see how it works for you.
