Honda S-MX

A Tamiya kit from I guess a few years ago. Typical fit and construction one would expect from a contemporary Tamiya model. It went together easily, a relaxing “no responsibility” build over two partial weekends and the week nights in-between.
Exterior paint is a combination of automotive urethane base colors and enamels. Clear is urethane.
Interior colors are mostly Tamiya lacquers. The patterns on the seats are ScaleMotorSports decals as is the C/F on the hood and rear spoiler.
The most effort required is the probably for doing all the window trim on the clear… - Mark

That looks very cool. I have often seen these kits quite cheap and wondered if I should.... Now I think I have to!

Perfect execution of a model, when tamiya could manage good detail for not too much $.

Re: Honda S-MX

An odd little car done skillfully. Nice paintjob, very shiny. Color combination seems a bit strange, but suits the car/theme nicely.

One thing I can't stop wondering about, though: how in the bloody hell are you going to get your spare tire out when you need it? Even worse: I have this exact kit for a number of years now - and I never noticed this funny detail
