Initial D Sileighty Progress

[Forhod]

Here is the Initial D Sileighty. Done some work on the body, finished the interior and painted the rims.
I just have to clean up the body a alittle and it would be ready for painting.




I need some help here.. Which colour should I paint for the Sileighty? 110 or 65?
The right one is 110, left is 65.

keep the progress pics coming pal!!!~....

I preferred 65..

one more thing, you must quickly decide the colour, or you wouldn't have time to paint it for this Sunday's meet.. Raining heavily these few days..

Both colour's look the same to me

110 looks slightly darker, I say use that.

WOW! More progress pics!! Sileighty, how I wish I could get my hands on a kit like this, closest I've come to an Initial D kit is the Yellow EK-9.

I just sand the front a little.. Reprimed and it would be ready for painting tomorrow.. But I am still undecided for the colour..

I will go with 65! I find 110 is too dark!

[bah humbug]

110! Is this the 1/32 scale sileighty or the 1/24.

I've only seen the 1/32 version on ebay. I've never seen the 1/24 version if there is one.

It's hard to see a diffrence I like 65 though

[Forhod]

Yeah.. I tried pretty hard to capture the difference.. but still.. it is very hard to see the difference between the two colours.

Anyway, I sand abit of the front. I'll prime it and spray it tomorrow.. but still.. I need more comments on the colour.. Thanks for the comments so far.



bah humbug : Erm.. this is the one. Fujimi's.


There is another one which the figures are included.. but I got this anyway.

id go 65

The true color of the Sileighty for Initial D is Impact-blue.

110 is a character color (Blue with very little red) purple-ish blue, it is perfect for my Gundams; 65 is Indy Blue for automotive.
If you want a close match with the model box art color, use 110. If you want to match the video game/anime color, go with 65.

My suggestion is: go for what you want to do, instead of what is supposed to be done

Here is a finished Initial D Sileighty on the web:
