Hi all, new here!
.... and I'm just about done my first model, a 1991 3000GT, produced by Tamiya. You'll have to bear with me here, I'm at work, and I can't RIGHT CLICK into properties of photos, therefor I cannot link the scaled down versions to this page. But, you can drag and drop the links below into your address bar, and you can see the 1200x? originals.
Now on with the show: The box the car came in  After the 3rd coat of primer. I ended up using 5 coats of teh Tamiya primer because of the problematic vents just fore of the rear wheels:  After the 5th coat, looking nice   Shot of the mostly complete undercarrige  Yea, the interior suck a lot of ass, but I'm just a beginner   And that's aboot it. I haven't taken any moer pictures of the car since I've done more, but I'll add more in the next little while. One thing I KNOW I've done wrong was I tried to glue on the front "snake eyes" lights (flash to pass when the headlights are down...) with the same cement that I used to glue the body together. Now I'm left with an off colour orange mess, and no way to clean it up  Other than that, can anyone offer tips to me for final details that Ican add to the car? ANYTHING would be appreciated! Thanks for taking the time to look! Medicguy PS... I just won an EBAY auction for a EVO VII Lancer WRC car, I CAN'T WAIT till it gets here! M Last edited by medicguy; 12-06-2002 at 11:37 AM.

well I suppose I didn't bold it or anything, but you have to drag and drop the links into your address bar. IMAGESTATION wont let me link directly to the pictures, this is just a way around the matter.

Well, my first ever "update" on the current model!
Side view... the better side...  rear view, you can see on the left side of the glass where I inadvertantly used the plastic model cement, rather than the "Krystal Klear" glue  and same here, the yellow in the front lights there SHOULD be clear, but apparently, I messed up   drivers side sail pannel.... should be a bit more "flat black" (which I used...) but I painted on the inside of the glass, so it's glossy  ditto for the passenger side....  it's about 90% done, just waiting for the spoiler and the rear license plate bracket to dry (which will read "GTO")  Well that's it for now, I REALLY need another model to start on so I have something to do while paint etc is drying. BTW, there is 5 coats of paint on the car (Tamiya Pearl White) and was laid on with a spraycan. Ciao for now! Meddie
