Revell Integra Type R

I just bought this kit, and it is real fun to put together. Dan, i'm not sure if it was you that needed some integra decals but you can have mine because i'm not going to use them. so far i've assembled the interior and it is looking great. the engine bay is black and red and the inside is black with red seats.

all i need to do is get my lazy but to my new found hobby store and get some paint and polish...

He can still have mine, too. :rolleyes:

What color's the body going to be? :D

the only thing i have done to the body is attach the front grille, and the rear bumper. then i sanded it down. tomorrow i will be adding the coats of primer and if things go well, the first layers of black paint. this model will be black with the red acura decals and such. very sharp looking!

Sounds good! :D Someday we'll have to compare it to mine. Of course, mine's a Mugen Honda ITR. ;) Estimated time to completion: 8 months!!! :eek: :hehe:

;)

I have a strange urge to buy something like that, an Integra or Civic or something and totally rice it out :D:D

The Revell Integra Type R kit sells for about $10 (US). It's cheap; buy a fleet! :D

Mine was $11, but i have to get tons of paint supplies and stuff. i'm not sure if i have the right primer though. what will happen if i use the wrong kind of primer?

ok, here it is with the first layer of primer. i should be starting the painting process tomorrow. thanks for the hager idea jay!

What kind of primer are you using? Take a pic of it, if you can, please. ;)

I wanted to get one of those integras too, but my local model shops don't carry it... strange... :confused:

but anyhoo.. looking good man, be sure to post some pictures of the final product.. :)

my Mugen ITR's estimated finish date is.. hmm... 1 month from now.. :D a but sooner then Jays ;)

Should look good when you have it finshed.

We dont get that kit here in NZ either

Like the coat hanger !!!

I bouth that kit at Wal Mart last night for $7.96 they had like 4 left.. I can't wait to start that one, but i have to finish my RX-7 first.

here is a pic of the teg with all the layers of primer and the rear view mirrors and spoiler attached. i'm just a bout to take it outside for the first coat of black paint. see you later.

I've put the first layer of paint on and i will wait a few days til the next layer. there were a few blotchy places but i sanded them out and its ready for the next coat.

cool cool.. can't wait to see the final product :flash:

I swear man.. I searched the ENTIRE city for this kit today.. and NO ONE.. and I mean NO ONE carries this kit... :mad: :mad: :mad:

I know, I just looked all over for it too and couldn't find it...maybe it's not in Canada or something.....

sheesh, that sucks. this was a very fun model to do. it fit well and was relatively easy. it looks fantastic put together. here are some shots of the finished product.

Looks superb, if only you could get better focus out of the camera!!!:mad:

Great choice in black, and the wheels set it off nicely! Very F&F!!!:cool:

They never did a silver Type-R! Or are we not bothering with factory colours?:rolleyes:

Heep, you are the best, the black made it look fantastic! and guiddy, i would be able to get better focus except i'm using a webcam instead of a digi cam. i'm thinking of getting a digi cam cause i'm sick of the blurry crap. i think silver would look great on yous jose.

It would do your models justice!!!

Like the Euro clear rear lights BTW!!!:D

Well guys, I decided on Metallic Blue from Tamiya. I am not going to go with the factory colors, And the hobby store did not have a great selection and i did not want to wait any longer, I applied the first coat and it looks good so far., The lighting sucks so i can't get a good pic of the color..

Blue's looking good.:) :)
You must have known i was going to post you that colour !!!!

Yeah it looks much better after my 4 coat was applied but i am too lazy to walk back down to the basement to take another pic..hahaha i will have more tomorrow..:smoker2:
