    that's so clean, flawless :) you did a good job on this one! I like the pressure valve on the rims.

      can you tell me what did you applied on the speed dials decal? is it varnish? 😳

      @SmallScaleFun  Рік тому

      :))
      yes, is varnish, and I like to apply varnish because is looking more real.
      I use acrylic, undiluted varnish after decals are well dry

      Hey!
      Yep, a beautiful kit to build that fits well as a gift :)
      Also, take a look at the Peugeot 206 WRC from Tamiya (I have a video), a nice kit that can be a present

      I know the feeling, but this NSX is a kit that you should build.
      I suggest that you build it with custom rims, will look much better.:)

    Is it hard to assemble, does it also come with the coloring kit?

    • @SmallScaleFun
      @SmallScaleFun  2 місяці тому +1

      It's not so hard just use the instructions provided with the kit. The hard part are headlights. After you spray the varnish, you need to adjust them to fit in their spot.
      This kit comes without the colors, primer, and glue you need to have them :)
      But is a beautiful kit.

    Can you open doors on these models?

    • @SmallScaleFun
      @SmallScaleFun  2 місяці тому +1

      On this model nope. The only thing that you can open on this model is the engine cover.
      But you can try 1/12 scale models like Porsche Jagermeister wher eyou can open doors, engine cover and so on.

      So sorry to hear that. I use a cheap compressor, is very noisy but I work in a garage. I bought an air pressure valve with a moisture trap valve in order to adjust the airflow and I have 25 l of air ready to use :)

    Great work! The color of the wheels in 5:58 is beautiful, is it metalic grey?

    • @SmallScaleFun
      @SmallScaleFun  10 місяців тому

      Hey!
      Thank you for your appreciation!
      The color of the wheels is an "accident" :)
      I sprayed gloss black primer -> ALCLAD Stainless Steel -> and didn't wait enough time to spray the gloss varnish, so, the varnish made that color, practically the varnish has diluted ALCLAd color.
      You can obtain something similar with metallic grey (I intend to use this color on a Toyota GR 86 rims)

    • @zengyanliu413
      @zengyanliu413 10 місяців тому

      Thank you very much for sharing the experience! That's a great "accident" which makes the wheel color just like the one on the real Honda NSX.@@SmallScaleFun

      I'm working on Tamiya 1/24 VW Beetle 1300 for the moment.
      The body was damaged by paint (Gravity Sea Blue) and I had to buy another kit to use the body
      After that, I have another Beetle kit (Tamiya new Beetle) :)))

    I want to build a Rally/Race inspired version but want different wheels and tyres to fit on it !

    • @SmallScaleFun
      @SmallScaleFun  Рік тому

      Hey!
      I'm not very sure, but you can go for 18-inch tires (some tires that you find in a hobby store).
      Or, if you have a Tamiya Subaru WRC kit, I think you can use those tires.
      Anyway, for custom tires some minor changes need to be made to the suspension.
