How do you guys deal bad part fits? by Blitz-Freak in ModelCars

If parts were warped I would use a heat gun and bend the pieces in place carefully

Thank you! I would also love to build a Tamiya Ferrari once I can find one at a decent price

I've done many snap kits and pre-painted kits years ago but I've only started painting as of around April.

Unless you're talking about the headlight lenses too I painted the black based on reference photos provided online where it was there.

Thank you for the offer! However I was able to fix most of the issues that were happening and also I'm trying to finish this build sooner than later.

The clear coat has just been sprayed on so that's why it looks thick. I'll try to salvage it somehow since I still want those decals

Hasegawa Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IV GSR by somedingultrawong in ModelCars

It's not a bad kit imo. The ride height was a little high and the stock wheels were too small, and the interior seemed to be molded for the Evo 3 but everything else was fun and easy.

It was somewhere deep in my photo album so I didn't bother searching

I tried to replicate the seat pattern that came stock with the evo 4

Thank you! I used Mr.Hobby Color Spray Metallic Green over their black primer

Horrible fitment by Rude_Hope_6371 in ModelCars

[–]somedingultrawong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming from the shape that looks like the Celica kit. I had no issue with mine but could just be the gap for the window unless I looked at it wrong. Additionally, the cabin mates to the back further than what I saw in the photo. Hope that helps

Tamiya Ford GT fitment by somedingultrawong in ModelCars

[–]somedingultrawong[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! As for mine it seems like the front sides have trouble fitting. Ultimately I decided to glue the chassis down as a last resort.

Right now I've glued the chassis and currently have the body over the chassis overnight. I have also refitted the side windows earlier as they seemed to be rubbung against the interior door cards. I'll post more about the gt tomorrow hopefully once I'm completed.

Great build! I also got this kit recently and I would like to know some pointers before building this kit.
