Hellow again form Slovenija :D

I decided to start built this model because of practicing to put decails on models and have one quick built just for a fun. And I also enter in Slovenian WEB scale plastic auto models contest. So here I will update you with my news. Let's start:

This Fujimi kit is so crapy. It has racing exterrior with civilian interrior. All details were put on the body. Also under car....there is no under!?! Just clasic, maybe from some old skyline or honda underplate :roll: . Now you see reason why I will not put so attenzione on this built. Like I said, just little of fun:

Well, in all bad things we can find some goodies, like that brembo breaks.

And I must admit, decails are also good to.

Looking good for a quick build.

Not totally accurate, but you already mentioned that this would be a fun build.
Paintwork looks superb, by the way. Very impressive.

Very nice so far...But one thing I don`t understand is that muffler in the middle...

Very nice work.
I like what you have done to the interior to make it the race version.
