Completed-Honda S2000

This is the first Tamiya model I have ever built and let me say that the fit and finish was perfect and the metal transfers were a pain in the ass. The color is TS-58 Pearl Light Blue over TS-30 Silver Leaf. It looks to be a spot on match to the car I tried to replicate.
If anyone wants outdoor pictures I can take them if you wish.






Car I tried to replicate. I got everything except the wheel decals(woudlnt stick??) and the side s2000 transfers the decided they wanted to fly across the room to never be found again.

Re: Completed-Honda S2000

Re: Completed-Honda S2000

Very nice S2000, beautiful color to replicate, I would love to see yours outdoors. Those wheel decals were amazingly difficult to get to stick - but oh well. And the metal transfers get easier with time. Great build though! Thanks for sharing!

Re: Completed-Honda S2000

good job... i still have a hard time with metal transfers. did you paint the holes in the exhaust black? i think it would look more realistic like that.

Re: Completed-Honda S2000

Sad news is that it is overcast here so no outdoor pictures. Even worse is I will be out of town so I cannot take them for another week...

Thanks for all the comments!

Re: Completed-Honda S2000

good looking car, man!

a little advice, you might want to check the right exhaust pipe and paint the interior black, otherwise it s a real stunner, it s so lifelike!

I d be very proud of the results!
