Well, I finally got some more work done to my Beamer...got the interior finished, and got some paint on it. Now I`ve having to rework the entire suspension to get the tire/wheel combo under there....y`all know the drill, if you change one thing, you gotta change 10 more to make the one thing work! LOL!   |

Looking good Tommy. I like the interior. The lil marks on the seats make it stand out.

Thanks Y`all! Bobby, the seats are just painted grey and done in the kit decals. This is a great kit, everything is well designed, but like I said, I`m now having to re-engineer the suspension to get those tires under there. Maybe I should have just used the kit wheels..............Nahhhhhh!

Thanks Alex. The Japanese kits are great kits but sometimes the interior details are very lack luster.

AAARGHHH!! Don't go the CF hood way, it's going out of the 1:1 scene already.... go with a clean mono chrome paint and you won't go wrong my 2 cents  |

It looks like Tamiya yellow to me....because I just painted a racing airplace that color! LOL! After getting stalled out on my project, I got back to work on it yesterday, and things kinda fell into place....I guess sometimes taking a break helps! Anyway, I`ll try to get some pics up this week....not quite finished, but getting there!
