Can someone post up a nice Clear photo of a kit painted in Tamiya Mica Red, I'm wanting to spray a kit in this colour but want to see what the result can look like first.
Yes I did a search but so many results just featuring red or mica blue etc.
Thanks in advance

These are the 2 best of my Kure Skyline right now. Its not polished, and the good lamp in the house is burned out, so the lighting sucks, and its raining outside. I'll try to polish it up tomorrow and take outside pics if you need.
This model has been sitting on my monitor for 3 months like this, got on to other projects and never finished detailing it.

Here is a Subie: white primer + Mica red. I think it would look better with a silver undcoat first. I also found that it darkened a lot with exta coats, more than my experience with TS-50 Mica Blue.

Actually I primed it in Tamiya gold to keep the color as "warm" as possible. Plus the gold covers better than their primer...
