The Supra is looking good. Maybe try to wet sand with 3000 then 6000 and then apply some polish wax. One of the things that I enjoy about model building is the problem-solving aspect when something does not go quite to plan! Those skills can easily be transferred to 'real' life.
Working on the 1/48 Atlantis M46 Patton kit now for Max’s Models 3-of-a-kind group build. The Patton will be 1 of 3 Atlantis 1/48 armor kits, the other 2 being the M4A3E8 Sherman and M109. Oddball759mm has several Atlantis & Aurora M46 Patton build videos if you’re looking for tips & techniques.
The Toyota Supra was a new car when I was your age! Like you, I thought it to be the best looking coupe getting around with zero chance of owning one, which in hindsight is a good thing! Give the body a wet sand with super fine paper and try some more mist coats of clear Or strip it and start again? Not the first time it’s happened

Gonna try this later on, after class!

Thanks for the tip-off. I'll definitely be buying more Atlantis kits in the future!
Just found your channel through Jeff Elliot. Welcome to the community. Gave a like & subbed.
Who's Jeff Elliot? I owe him thanks it seems
@model-grail-kit-hunter I've been building models for over 10 years, but I'm still learning new things every day.
The Supra should be a fun build. Take your time and try new things along the way. Happy Modeling ~ Cory
After thinking, I think I'm gonna strip the body and try to airbrush it with Testors paint.

I went home later that night, and it bothered me. I'm gonna try and wet sand it, but I also have some paint stripper!
