tamiya is moving onto producing supercars
less and less japanese cars unless its a track car. liek the Xanxi Skyline GTR

u can make ur own stuff basically, this is gonna be my first time using putty, hehehe gonna be hard, am gonna try make a widebody ae86 with the bodyshell u can see from my previous post, lol

I dont get it....can you explain a bit more

and I have seen that you can mix putty with colour thinner
whats the use of it ?

i duno,about that thinner thing

bt u know putty, and u know that really good model site?they use putty to hide all those lines, look here http://www.geocities.co.jp/Playtown-Domino.../jusutocyu1.htm

yes
those putty for custom parts is epoxy putty
u will also need some stereyne plastic to shape things
that is if ur working with cars..such as bodykits

u need stryene plastic to make bodykits?woot, hmm, need to get some, why dp u need the stryene anyways?

basically its ur base for the body kit
i mean..if ur gonna add some stuff to the body
the steryne will be very useful not just to give it some support but shape

bt the stryene is jst a flat piece of material, how would it help?i can use some sort of card, bt would that be the same?

I bought the 1:24 Initial D RX-7 FC3S yesterday. Assembly is screwing the chassis/interior to the shell, screwing the front and rear bumpers on, and then instering the axels for the wheels then pushing the wheels on. Easy assembly, awesome car. I already had a green 1:24 FD3S so the Keisuke figurine sits by that and the Ryousuke figurine of course sits by the FC.

The FD is quite a bit smaller even though it's also "1:24" but the people who made my FD didn't do the best job scaling.

eh?so that pic u posted up are models or diecast? if its model, WOA! how u get the doors?!?

it's a diecast model. I explained all there is to the "construction" process. All you have to do to the body of the RX-7 itself is screw on the bumpers.

The FD is purely diecast.

looking nice those models , eightsixdrifter9

how much time did you spend on those 2 ?

hmmm, well jst spraying parts of my deathscythe black now after sanding it all, cant wait till i get my white paint, hehehehehe, deathscythe with white wings!!woo

when can we see it , CF86

duno, ive only jst sprayed the foot, and filled it with some stuff to make it heavier.My bro sud be bringing the white spray around 10-20 of september, the weather hasnt been all that great, so i cudnt spray that much

btw, do u think it will look good?i mean like the colour matching, because the legs are gonna be errr blue, not really dark, not really light,and white wings, and u know that yellow V shaped thing thats on the head, am planning on spraying that white too, wt do u think?

abit like this, bt i think the legs wont be as dark, or sud i jst spray them grey instead of blue?




EDIT~: again!

omogmogmg jst had this wicked idea, what if i jst spray the whole thing black?bt keep the wings white, so u know it like opens up and its all black, and i was reading on some site about the deathscythe it built for stealth purpose?
