Some progress made!
Far more pieces to paint than compared to 1/72 airplanes, fun kit to build so far. 🙂

Done with the interior, pretty happy with it except for the Decal Soft that messed up the dashboard.

Almost finished, I failed at applying the decals, so this had to be a white Supra instead. 🙁

Finished!
A bit sad that the decals didn't want to cooperate, they are such a major part of the looks of this kit.
Some mistakes made here and there, but lessons where learned along the way!

Take your time with the decals. Especially the 36 on the bonnet and those on the air intakes in front of the rear wheels are tricky.
Very nice work so far 👍🏻

Yeah, I feel the decals will be the hardest part of the kit! Hope everything goes well.

The decals where very brittle, I managed to rip them right from the start...
If anyone knows where to get aftermarket decals it would be very appreciated, else this will have to be an all white Supra from now on. 😠

Thats a bummer!

This Livery is cool imho:

(don't think about the fact that the decals are more expensive than the kit. we model builders are crazy people...)

I've got projects planned where the aftermarket stuff is nearly double the kits worth… but I'm not crazy, I sniff glue!

Nice save there Sebastian
