Honda S2000 Matt White

I am glad to finally post a completed model after 3 years starting many projects and not having a chance to complete one. I guess I am an excited builder ...

I started with the Tamiya 1/24 kit:




I made a few changes:

> Front spoiler built out of putty
> Wheels from Aoshima kit
> Ride height drastically changed for low stance and big camber
> Exhaust tips made of old telescopic antenna

I had a very hard time picking the final color.
I was going for shiny white but after the white primer I found the result more original and perfect to my taste.
Only issue I found it that it is really hard to capture it in pictures.

Here is my attempt:





































And with the hard top in place, for a look quite different:






























Hope you like it!

Thanks!

I wanted to build it OOB besides the wheels and the stance but I could not leave the original front bumper without tweaking it a little bit. I used 2 parts tamiya putty which works great for this kind of work.

The weathering on the exhaust is made with a black wash and some blue and yellow pastels.
