Mazda MX-5 Miata

Hello,

Now I want to show you the third of my automodels. It concerns the Mazda Mx-5 Miata of Tamiya on scale 1:24. The Mazda is completely built out of box, only the porter was added. The MX-5 is coulered in karminred from Opel.

A timeless classical Design, which let the "Roadster wave" arise again.

Now have much fun with the pictures:











Greetings from Germany

Stefan

Re: Mazda MX-5 Miata

your paintjob looks nice, shiny, but i think your interior is a bit plain. i also like the thing on the trunklid, which i guess is the porter?

Re: Mazda MX-5 Miata

Did that trunk luggage rack come with that kit? It looks familiar, like the one in the Jag kit. This looks beautiful! Love the background again like the CRX. Keep up the great work!

I think the interior looks great! the stock Miata has an all black interior, just as this one does. there are some details that were picked out with some paint on the dash, but for the most part, there really isn't anything different than a 1:1 stock MX5

paint is awsome!!! and the "porter" lends this car to be an older man's touring car, or a very european feel.

I LIKE IT!!!

Hi,

first impression is ok, but looking closer I find the colour probably too thick(?), while the black in the panel doesnīt look crisp. The thick plastic of the side window should be replaced by thin clear sheet. Didnīt you use window colour for the rear lights? Just like g00ey wrote, interior looks a little bit bare. Rear porter is a nice touch.
