Tamiya 1998 JGTC NSX Mugen Street Version
I originally was going to build this with the Mugen Castrol livery but the box didn't come with any decals and sorts. So I decided to build it into a street version.
 Box  2 coats of Tamiya TS-34 Camel Yellow

This reminds me of the 13 devils car in Tokyo Xtreme racer.

Re: Tamiya 1998 JGTC NSX Mugen Street Version
Some updates. 90% done with the chassis, waiting on some paint from local hobby store. @_@
  My first attempt in applying CF decal (it ain't easy than I thought)  I have these to finish too.

Re: Tamiya 1998 JGTC NSX Mugen Street Version
It´s an interesting idea you are pursueing here. Will you have the rims in a different color or do they stay green? IMHO it doesn´tfit the yellow that good. Besides that the paint job is great - nice looking...

Re: Tamiya 1998 JGTC NSX Mugen Street Version
Personally I'm really not liking the green for the wheels and I hope you won't keep it that way. Black or white would look good I think

Re: Tamiya 1998 JGTC NSX Mugen Street Version
^ Thanks, but unfortunately, the wheels will stay green. Sorry to disappoint you guys but it's how I wanted it from the beginning and now it's too late for to go back and redo it.

Re: Tamiya 1998 JGTC NSX Mugen Street Version
Hey all, it's almost done. I just didn't post any pictures yet till now.
All I got left is the rear wing in which I am in the process of applying CF decal.

Re: Tamiya 1998 JGTC NSX Mugen Street Version
It's good to see you've almost completed it. From the photos though, I can't help but nit-pick at some little details like tidying up the headlight black-surround (looks like you went a bit wonky with the Sharpie). Maybe rub it off then use some masking tape to help achieve that straight edge. Looking at the engine cover, maybe thin out your black paint a bit more to help it dry with a more even surface.
Looking forward to seeing how the wing turns out and please show off the body in nice sunlight

You might also want to rethink the front fog lights. Seems as they could use some trim as well as a shaded background to make it look more realistic. I like your the CF-panels in the front hood. Robert

Re: Tamiya 1998 JGTC NSX Mugen Street Version
^ Yeah, I'll get some of those things fixed later on. I'm taking my time on the wing since it's so difficult to apply the CF on it. XD

Re: Tamiya 1998 JGTC NSX Mugen Street Version
Well after months of putting it off, I decided to finish it off. I wasn't all that excited with this build from the beginning when I found out the livery wasn't included.
As the build progressed along, I just lost all motivation and you can see that in some parts of the model. I'm sorry for the lack of work, but when the right time comes, I will definitely come back to this and fix all the parts I've messed up on.   Till then, comments would be much appreciated. Both good or bad.
