Finished - Supra MKIV


Stock, built it curbside because the engine was needed for something else
All the flaws are nearly invisible in real life except the paint misses at the window edges.












C&C please, but most important- be brutally honest!

Re: Finished - Supra MKIV

Paint looks really smooth as does the CF Decal, but it's in bad need of window trim.

Re: Finished - Supra MKIV

Honest? Ok.
Looks great! But it would be even better a bit lower...It sits a little high,or is just the pics??

What have you used to glue the front-back rear lights?

Re: Finished - Supra MKIV

paint looks excellent!

needs: rear wiper, black paint around the inside rim of the headlight lenses, a tad lower ride height (even though they are 19" wheels), and use a lot less glue when you put the drivers mirror on, or maybe the paint is bad around the mirror base?

Re: Finished - Supra MKIV

For the most part it looks great! I do agree with what everyone's said. Could use some more details (i.e. the insides of the front and rear lights, side markers, inside window trim, and interior), could probably use some lowering. The Paint and Carbon looks awesome!

Re: Finished - Supra MKIV

Thanks everybody, i tried to paint the inside window trim but it was too har for me to try and mask off. The outside window trim got a tad f*cked up and the glue for the rear view mirrors isnt actually visible in real life :S
Regarding the ride height, i will keep it in mind for the next supra i'm making. I've heard from several dudes that the supra sits very high even at stock wheels/brakes.

Hey man, there are thousands and thousands of wheels that look like the R34 ones (and i guess nissan didn't come up with that design first in the world). Just imagine that they aren't nissan wheels and there you go

Peace

Re: Finished - Supra MKIV

I thought this kit came with pre-cut masks for doing the inside window trim.

Re: Finished - Supra MKIV

Honest....allright.

Like the other guys said the paint is good. I don't really like the carbon hood, but it's done well. Wheels are totally your choice....I have put them on an NSX that is posted here in AF somewhere and must say they look good on a lot of cars.

Headlights are really bad, just take a look at a pic of the real car (or the instructions for that matter) and you are good to go. Same for the rears...and don't forget to paint the edge black on all of them ;-)

Panel lines look good, but could be a tad thinner in some places. Window trim is missing as mentioned before.

Either paint the sidemarker or remove it...

OK, enough said. Don't take it too hard...with patience and practice you can become a really good modeller. Keep it up!

Re: Finished - Supra MKIV

Nice CF and paint!

For the inner window mask, I use a 1mm or less tape and then bigger to the center, so you can follow the lines better with very thin tape. Then look from outside if the tape has no bubbles where the paint could run into. If you see some, you can press them away with a tooth pick.
