ooo... u can start with s15 n rx7 le liddat.... just be patient if u screw up coz u will anyway.... like over paint or overglued n things liddat le... but from there you'll learn the art of modelling la... trust me, it's fun than collecting ready made cars coz it's made by u n not the factory worker... so quality oso ur standard la...

wow.. r u trying to scare me?
i think im gonna screw up big times, man! haha...

i really never expected that it will be so tough tho...

i had an F1 model when i was 8, i think...
and i screwed up when making the engine part...
i gave up at last cuz i broke something... those tiny parts.. haha...

that was last time.now u r getting bigger enough to take care of it..dont worry bro.slowly.better late than never.hahaha...

lor... who says old skool one are not attractive..

here's my old skool skyline!~...



modded it BOSOZOKU style... the style which only suited on old skool japanese cars..









hehe....

the 1st method is my favorite one.. i lowered almost all my kit using this method which is simpler and saves time.. the only thing to do is to glue the top of ur tyre to the fender... u can adjust the height by adding card in between the fender and the tyre... but the disadvantage is ur wheels will be fix and cannot roll on.. but since its a static model so its not quite important...

i just explain briefly here bro.. later i'll post it with picture so it's easier to understand...

just wanna ask, the bonnet of the car can open? if no, wuts da point making the engine?

one more question, if u guyz planning to spray different color on certain part of the body, how u spray it? use tape to stick the part that dun wan to be spray?

certain models can open da engine... hence u need to paint da engine in detail as well on the painting part u are correct... tape the part u don't wanna paint n expose the desired part for the spraying session

wow... it seems like painting is the toughest part to do.. haha..

yeah... da most time consuming to learn the art as well...

hehe.. yup bro.. modelling is all about ur painting skill... all the details u did will be forgotten if ur didnt paint it right...

anyway... im up to something right now...!~

the box art...


hehe... now im building classic cars!!!~... its still not completed but u guys can access my blog to see more pics...!~
