Finished: Tamiya Raybrig NSX

Finished this one up the other night and finally got some decent pics (Thanks Veyron).

Here it is, built OOB the only thing added that wasn't in the kit was CF decals to the headlight areas and the guitar string wire for the antenna. Sprayed with Tamiya's TS-57 Blue Violet (aka: Raybrig Blue) from the can, no clear and no clear over the decals either. Decals were quite a chore but went on decent, although not perfect. Overall, I'm happy with it.















Thanks for looking......

Wow - that shine. Are you sure you didn't clear coat over the decals? Very impressive. I've often though about buying this kit - and now I must!

Re: Finished: Tamiya Raybrig NSX

I don't think it's right when people take the studio photos of the real car and try to pass them off as photos of a model they've built.....






j/k

Outstanding model, truly one to be proud of!

Yep, what everyone else said...

Really incredible work, I am amazed by the shine and the absolutely spotless decal work. This model deserves to be placed in a museum or something. I cannot wait to see what's next!
