Lewbud,

FAB-1 is from Thunderbirds, my most favoritest show when I was in preschool. Big Smile It was Lady Penelope’s personal car, with equipment that rivaled 007’s original Aston Martin.

I wonder if anyone will do a 1/24 scale kit? I believe Aoshima revised the tooling of the original 1/32 kit to include an interior.

Octane,

If you mist on the first couple of coats before applying a wet coat, it will give the following coats something to grab on to and will keep them from pulling away from the edges. That looks like a fun build.

John,

I think that's from the Gerry Anderson UFO series.

Driver is in center, but is just a head and shoulders, no detail below that.

Cool build!

Hard to tell if the driver is in the center or is it right hand drive?

I needed a slump buster so i put this simple kit very quickly and had a little fun.

It's a styrene kit by Imai that comes molded in pink and black. It's a motorised kit, but they don't include a motor. So i didn't put in any of the electronics. I didn't primer it either but that was a mistake, as the pink pulled back from the edges.
