Woah my bad guys. Ya ever think something in your mind and it sounds right but when you try to say it it don't work lol same thing just happened. What I ment to say was to make the pink fit look like a tiny rc car that was scaled to big fit(orange one) if that don't make sense forget it lol sorry bout that

OMG i love it i cant wait for the fiished product you are putting so much detail i love the antenna and are you gonna put working lights i really hope so!

[Dr. Kustom]

Thanks for all the comments guys! Once I got all the details (windows trim, a few decal, metal badge, license plate, etc) finished on the body, I will add another coat of clear on it. Then I will polish it up. Last, I will install the 10 LED from the newest Kyosho light kit. Bad news is, I kinda lost interest in the 1/59 Fit, lol. But I will finish it one day... maybe...

Update:


Also re-new the headlight lense. Left is stock, and the right is polished.

Nice, where did you get that Mugen badge though? You must have had it custom made right?

Thats a 1:1 car, not the 1:28 Dr.K is working on

Shes looking better and better everyday, once your done this, you better get cracking on the S2000 and the Pajero !

[dreamingISdrifting]

[mycrors4]

meh im jealous.. this makes me want a mini-z every time i see it.. Looks awesome. I cant wait for finished pix
(P.S. I may have a dream tonight about this car )

[Dr. Kustom]

Thanks guys!

Update: Adding details on the front bumper. Cut out a piece of styrene to cover the front clip, then I added mesh on the styrene. I also order some more Tamiya paint, when they get there, I will make the mesh matt black.

[Dr. Kustom]

Update: Inside of the body also painted orange to make it looks like a Kyosho Auto Scale body.

The emblem I believe comes with the body kit, like with all mini-z bodies that need assembly


Btw DK (abreviation for dr. kustom) Car looks awesome, looking forward to the finished deal.

[Dr. Kustom]

I got the emblem from a Tamiya model kit, the original Kyosho white body doesn't comes with it.

[Dr. Kustom]

Update: The Fit now have Kyosho X-Speed V Motor. =p


Mock up of the emblems. =]

:O this is byfar one of the best eyecandy ive seen!
you should try making it FWD to match the real Honda Fit(not sure if this has been mentioned before)

[Dr. Kustom]

Thanks mycrors4. I don't plan on turn it into a FWD though. Btw, the Honda Fit are available in FF and AWD.

More goodies showed up in the mail today. I should be able to get more work on the Fit today.

[GearHeadV8]

sweet tools...what are they?

[Dr. Kustom]

Thanks Cody, there are a side cutter and 3 different modeler knifes.

Update: There was some paint problem happened on the Fit earlier, but I took my time and sand everything down, primer it and now its painted.
