Hasegawa Civic type R (EG6)

just finished this. well. came up with the bumpers my self. some what like the veilside one. scratch built. well, i'm poor and dont have any styrene sheets so i used old phone cards. same goes for the side skirts.:rolleyes: really pleased with myself with this being just my 3rd model. lol. experimented lots of things. including cutting up the hood. put a small nos bottle inside too. made the stock rims black, sprayed it thick so that the honda logo doesn't show up. :icon16: and the coolest thing is that it has an Rx-7 engine in it. LOL. how cool is that huh. but i won't mind if you think it's dumb. lol. got it from my die cast hotworks racing model. it isn't some big engine just a flat piece:

:p

Not bad at all. Keep building and youll only get better.

I like the front bumper alot! but the paint looks a bit heavy.

quick tip, next time use a white primer under the yellow and you won't need to use so much paint.

Nice build for a third model. As said before, the paint does look a bit heavy, and white primer will help that.

Another tip, it looks as though you tried brushing the body lines without using any thinner and creating more of a wash? Here is a great tutorial on painting body lines...

The paint is bad,but details are impresive

thanks for the comments! i was feeling bored not having a kit to do so i decided to add more details to this car.
i scratchbuilt an intercooler using a phonecard again, plus some wires and tubing.the wires run over the card and the tubes on the side hold them down.

coloured it black and then sprayed silver. then i used a toothpick to run along the gaps inbetween the wirs to get this effect which i like. silver with some black.
