Model Factory Hiro 1/24 Aston Martin DBR9 LM
The Aston martin DBR9 debuted in sports car racing in 2005 and achieved success at Sebring with a win in the LMGT1 category and a third place in that category at Le Mans that year. The model here is the Le Mans entry as depicted in the 1/24 scale Model Factory Hiro multimedia (resin,metal and photoetch) kit. As with all Model Factory Hiro kits the design and detail are well executed but trial fitting is imperative and a little fettling is required. The kit builds up into a great replica, particularly highlighted by the Aston Martin green metallic paintwork and extensive carbon fibre decalling finish. Hope you enjoy.

Well done! Color looks spot on, what did you use? I have the Renaissance kit in the stash to build...someday.

Re: Model Factory Hiro 1/24 Aston Martin DBR9 LM
In answer to your question Mike, the colour is actually an automotive spray can decanted for airbrushing. Zero Paints from the UK currently make a factory colour matched range of paints for all the different racing Aston Martins. I have used their paints for other projects and was impressed. They are a matt finish and require a clear coat, either their own or I use Tamiya lacquer spray can clear decanted for airbrushing.

It looks awesome!
