The Low Down MK2, Another Commisioned Build..

As I said before Raess has been working on a few comissioned builds and heres another one. this time around its a Golf MK2. slammed down to the ground, so that makes it 2 low down ground scrappers.
this one is a more subtle look to it. porsche mesh wheels get this one rolling around, it's different from the MK1 trio he finish up earlier.

So far this make it 3 MK1's and 1 MK2, all he has left of comissioned builds are a Honda Prelude and a Beetle. I'm sure he would be happy to get those out of his hair soon.

"Another commission build . this was done during the mk1 builds so this progress was a bit slower. none the less it is finally done. This is the second lowest car iv done after the kpgc10 skyline"

Specs of the Low Down:
Kit: Fujimi vw mk2
Tamiya light tan with 2k clear
Ferrari seats
Porsche mesh wheels

Lower Than Shakotan?? "Godzilla Is Here"

Holy shit this thing is low! The shakotan style is low, but I think this is an all new "low" for Raees. he built this Hakosuka so low that the exhaust is pretty much non-exsistent(see those little things peeking out of the side), it's grungy, dirty, and damn right sexy.

The body has been weathered, it adornes torn decals as a sign of age, classic front mounted oil cooler and race configuration spoiler, flares and head light covers gives it a vintage race track menace appeal. the interior shares the same grunge as the outside, sporting only one seat for the driver, vintage 3 point roll cage, race style gutting, kevlar dash pad and some wethering on the sheet metal. sorry ladies, this is a single mans car..haha it's rolling stock are a set of SSR MKII's with blue faces to match the decals on the hood, they wraped in some hippari style tires(stretched) to clear the race fender flares. it has all the markings of a highway reflector killer and well speed bumps are not an option with this one.

Enjoy.

"So i decided to take a bit of a break from all the commision builds to finish my skyline. this is probably may favourite build. it was really fun trying new techniques. the results i am very happy bwith

"Godzilla's" Specs:
Fujimi takahashi kpgc10 racer
Aoshima SSR MK2 wheels
Aoshima nostalgic seat
Kevlar dash with 'stolen gauge'
Custom weatherd bonnet
Custom damaged exhaust
Colour is a mixture of tamiya silver, chrome powder, weathering set and acrylic paints"








Here chillin with the homies and the sexy silver 510..

MK1 Factory Part 2

In part 1 we had a sweet looking black golf on steelies, this time around Raees finished up another Golf in red with some BBS mesh wheels. those 2 along with the silver one from the VW Approved post are all for customers that he has lined up. oh and trust me, theres a couple more on his bench that are for customers as well, they too will be done really soon and will be posted on here as well.

The red one is the last of the trio of MK1 Golfs that he had to build. it's a fairly simple and clean loking Golf. red, lowered, BBS and the factory lip spoiler. looks like it could be a fun ride. knowing Raees, he will most likely build another MK1, hell who knows it might be of his real MK1. 

Enjoy the MK1 Factory

Commissind Build, Well half built...By Raess.

Raees has taken in some interesting projects. he has had some people ask hime to build models for them. some box stock with a couple of mods and maybe one of their real car. this Revell 510 was only half built by Raees. the other half to be completed by the customer, which to be honest with you can make or break this already fantastic looking build.

He has painted and built the interior, chassis and engine. he also added some details like spark plug wires, some weathering on the chassis and the small details in the interior. the wheels are aoshima SSR MKIII's on some super low profile tires with a stance that looks quit menacing.






Well, I can only hope the customer lays down a nice paint job. if possible, I might be able to have an update on that once it happens.

Thanks for looking.
