Hi everybody,
I started this build some months ago then left it apart because of some paint problems.
Later I took on trying to complete it...work in progress, but not so bad until now !!
Cluster decals applying went horribly...so I decided to print all the instruments on photo paper after collecting some good images of them on the net.
The kit is a curbside fujimi, quite underdetailed for what concerns the underbody (it is basically the same I have on a 2nd gen mazda rx 7 !), but with good general lines and a stance I like it very much.
Here is the little 'un:

Now I'm doing the dashboard, I downloaded from internet some nice clusters and instruments (since I messed up the original decals forehead-slap-smiley-emoticon ) and printed them on high quality photo paper. Then I glued them to the dashboard itself. This is what is coming out...I am quite satisfied with the result !  |

Work is going on, being the kit a curbside I hope it won't take too long to be finished. Here are other photos, I am slowly flocking the interior (had to redo it because the first time it was awful)  Then I have build the rear part of the seats, for added realism, and am planning to paint them red (maybe adding a small sparco decal on the headrest):  This is the underbody (really generic, it's all wrong, but it is impossible to make it correct):  Things are going on slowly as I said, but not bad I think ! |

Here are the (nearly) completed tail lights:  Plus I did put BMF into front lights (but I'm installing them tomorrow) |

Here are a couple of pics of the finished front and tail lights.
I'm really satisfied of the result with BMF and clear spraying red and orange.
Build is really going to end soon, I'm getting the seats ready in some days and then the windows...
