WRX STi Progress

twoninety · #1 11-22-2002, 02:15 AM

Hi Guys

Been very busy at work so I was not able to update you on my WRX STi. It's the 1/24 Tamiya kit, as usual, not much drama putting it together. The only gripe I had was the chassis. What a pain to paint.

I wanted a Red car with an all black interior so I choose Tamiya's Mica Red.

Anyways, here are some pics.

The body, primed and ready for a coat of paint.

The infamous chasis.

I never had a taste for gold wheels, so they too were primed and ready for a coat of aluminium.

Couldn't resist putting it together just to see.

A shot of the interior

Since it's the end of the year, days like these are all to common. So, kit building will have to stop for a while.. at least till the weather clears up.

I will post more pics of the completed model when I get the time.

Peace
