Hello-
Here is a Fujimi WRX. I used House of Kolor Euro Red with several coats of gloss and a ton of polish! :D
Stright from the kit minus the cutouts in the front grill. I left off the front plate to get a good view of the grill work.
Enjoy!!

Very nice model mate. Love the colour.
Never really fancied doing a scooby, but I think you just changed my mind. Would look at home in the snow!!
Again, nice work!!!

HOK paint is Auto Lacquer and you will need an airbrush with comprssor to get the best effect. Also you will need lots of ventilation because HOK really stinks up the place. :bloated:
HOK is a very thin paint mixed with lacquer thinner. The best suggestion I can give about HOK paint is make sure all your mistakes in your body are FIXED before painting, otherwize they will show up under the paint. A real nice feature of HOK is its glossy effect. After painting three or four layers of paint the basic colors have a real nice gloss to them before any after market gloss is aplyed. The pearls and flip/flop paints require a gloss coat to bring out the best in the color.
Another plus for HOK paint is the dring time. I can paint a body, then clean out my airbrush and turn right around and the body will be DRY! Lacquer paint takes only seconds to a few minutes to dry totally. I really like HOK its easy to polish, spray on, and do graphics with it. Besides the smell its totally worth the time invested and $$.
