I have been working on this model for many months. im really happy to have finally finished it. never thought it would happen. its a tamiya 2000 Subaru Impreza WRC Arai Version with a Renaisance door kit i got from ebay. let me know what you all think. thanks Rob http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/404938subarufront.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/107951subside.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/829453subtop.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/860032subback.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/799072subback2.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/656348subinsd.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/948235subinsd2.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/602758subinsd3.JPG primera man 11-20-2002, 12:59 AM http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/images/smilies/eek2.gif ...I'm lovin that door kit.

I really like the doors, that's pretty awesome. ales 11-20-2002, 02:47 AM You're on a roll now!!!! :eek2: Looks great! Toksin 11-20-2002, 04:31 AM That door kit rocks Bobj 11-20-2002, 05:06 AM Awesome lookin sub, well done the doors look great. jimbob 11-20-2002, 05:14 AM great job you can see the effort that has gone into it!! doors finish off a great model JIM sausage 11-20-2002, 06:45 AM Are those front grilles photoetched ones by Renaissance as well? Noticed that some photos don't have open doors. Are they hinged so that you can open them at will? Daryl 11-20-2002, 06:51 AM The doors, dude... the doors... really make the kit stand out great job there Veyron 11-20-2002, 07:13 AM Nice effort on a way cool car!:flash: Gainsbourg 11-20-2002, 07:29 AM Brilliant work Rob. I spent several minutes admiring your photos before I can start writing something. The car is perfect from all the angles and that door kit really gives it a perfection look. flyonthewall 11-20-2002, 07:37 AM Superb! I was always under the impression that those resin door kits had to be glued in the open position. 935k3 11-20-2002, 08:55 AM Beautiful job! I am just curious did you use Tamya TS50 Mica Blue and if so over what base coat color? I used bright silver and it came out a little dark. fastlife 11-20-2002, 09:07 AM That door man!! Very nicely done. Would like to see a big boy exhaust, but the opening door makes up for that big time. :D More door pics...please COZMO6476 11-20-2002, 09:48 AM Originally posted by sausage Are those front grilles photoetched ones by Renaissance as well? Noticed that some photos don't have open doors. Are they hinged so that you can open them at will? The Renaissance kit came with lots of photo etching which included the grill and yes the doors can open and close at will since i made hinges using some brass tubing, brass rods, and some epoxy putty. i will take some pictures later today to show you all. im glad you like it, but it was a supreme pain in my arse to get it right.

I used bright silver and it came out a little dark. I did use TS50 but it was over white tamiya primer. Midnight Racer 11-20-2002, 11:34 AM I really like that you can open the doors.Great kit. MaukaRunner 11-20-2002, 12:22 PM That's one nice Scooby! One question though is the stock door panels correct for that car? I thought the race cars had them removed. fwdfreak 11-20-2002, 02:11 PM Goddamn I just love that ass shot with the closed doors.. very nice scoobie Integra14 11-20-2002, 07:52 PM I would like to learn how to make the doors like that!` GTI1800 11-20-2002, 08:33 PM Hi, awesome works.......probably the best SUBARU that i see..... all is nice........ Laurent COZMO6476 11-21-2002, 01:32 AM Originally posted by MaukaRunner That's one nice Scooby! One question though is the stock door panels correct for that car? I thought the race cars had them removed. as far as i know... the kit came with reference pictures of what the door looked like. plus the resin doors looked just like the doors that came with the kit (superficially at least) COZMO6476 11-21-2002, 01:53 AM Here are some more detailed pics of the "hinges" http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/362173open.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/653016right2.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/262025right1.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/642208left.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/224194interior.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/107550open2.JPG hope it answers some questions... remember its brass rod, with some brass tube hidden underneath some epoxy putty BTW, noticed a bunch of touch up spots now that ive seen close up pictures of the doors... oops. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
