Great build! Excellent talent! I'm fairly new to the hobby. I think you used Tamiya cement to glue the steering wheel to the dashboard without scraping any paint?? How does it work?? Sorry for the rookie question. Thanks for sharing!
No worried about the question, it is the only way we learn so all questions are good questions. I did use Tamiya cement. It is recommend that you scrape the paint to make a better bond, this is true. For me I tend to use fairly thin layers of paint when I airbrush and so the glue still dissolves the paint along with the plastic to create a bond. If you scrape the paint it will always make a better bond but even with the paint it does work somewhat. This does not work the same with chrome tho, you do need to scrape the chrome away or it will not create a bond. Hope that helps.
@@ScaleAutoGarage Thank you very much for your detail explanation and prompt response! Keep up the great work and again thanks for taking the time to explain in detail. It's much appreciated.
Hey man love your work but I'm a new comer to the replica car building scene and have bought the exact same car as you and was wondering do I need to repaint everything and have to use those tools for lines and all as I don't have any equipment like that avaliable and the money to buy them?
Building models is about enjoying the hobby. Do what you can do with the tools and items you have on hand and explore other inexpensive options if you can find them. There is no right or wrong way of doing it, just ways you can imporove your own work with time, testing and experience. Aoshmia kits can be built with minimal paint applications but there are some basic colors you should get like black and silver so you can add some details.
For paint I really only use two brands, Tamiya or Vallejo. For the Tamiya paints, I use their primer always, and then colors I use their Acrylic line. Easy to find, easy to clean, easy to use. Vallejo come in a lot of decent colors that Tamiya doesn't offer but they are a little more effort to clean up. I use their Air line including their metalics. I clear coat using Mr. Hobbies Mr. Super Clear. I buy all my supplies from Sunward hobbies in Ontario. They have free shipping to both Canada and the US and have a great selection of products to choose from.
The exhaust came all chrome in the kit. There are actually several exhaust choices with this kit. I just use some of the Tamiya clear blue on the tip and a few other spots. I need to work on my exhaust work. 😅😅
Yes, I use glue, usually a Tamiya liquid cement but occassionally I will use a bob smith super gold plus superglue as needed. If you are asking about the wheel hub specificly, no, you don't glue this part in place so that when it is complete you can move the steering from side to side.
No problem. I know starting out can be very intimidating and leave you just asking yourself where to even begin. Basic tools I have on hand are: Cutting blade (exacto knife) but you can use a scalpel or any other sharp blade that can be handled in one hand. Sprue cutters, similar to wire cutters but have one flat side so when you cut it leaves a sort of flat surface. Tweezers for handling the small parts. Various sandpapers to work the surfaces. For paint I would have used Tamiya acrylics. They are super easy to use and clean. I use an airbrush which can be a little more advanced and is a fairly big expense to start off with. Tamiya offer cans of hobby paint that are perfect for building model cars. I would have used mostly basic colors such as yellow, silver, black, semi-gloss black and clear red and orange. For more detail on how to do the actual work I would suggest checking out a channel like Scale Model Experiment that has plenty of in depth tutorials on how to do certain things from sanding and painting to decals to bare metal foil and so on. Building models can be very rewarding but like anything, it takes practice and repitition to get good at it! Good luck with your build!
@@ScaleAutoGaragethank you so much bro! You really helped me a lot. You earned a subscriber Edit: ONE LAST QUESTION Do you think it would still look good without buying any paint other than black(excluding keisuke)? I just think that some of it is unnecessary and I only plan on maybe doing just this one so I feel like the paint would go to waste
@@b-barbosamarco829 this kit would not be bad if you didn’t paint the yellow. It can be built with just some black paint and doing some of the details but just know that the plastic body won’t look like a die cast version if it is not painted. The plastic does look pretty good and can even look better if you sanded it and glossed the bare plastic but straight from the box, it may not look quite just right. Either way, the point of the model is to have fun with it. Enjoy the process. If you just want to paint the black parts then you should just paint the black parts. It will look fine and you will have the pride of an accomplishment. Good luck with your build. Feel free to share photos when you are done on my FB page or on Instagram! Would love to see the finished piece.
The process is great. Every details are well-made. You have a good nose for building things, especially car models.
Thanks so much!!
😮😊😊😊
Beautiful work, Detail and Finish on this build!
Thank you so much. Glad you liked it.
Nice videos as always!!

Very good detail and always great build, it looks so nice, I like Initial-D.
Thanks so much man. Great to see you are still watching!
Damm nice build and I absolutely love those gold wheels! She's beautiful Spencer!
The rims are awesome, for sure. Aoshima did a very good job on this one.
Looks good! I just did an unboxing on this. Will be using the body for my micro drift RC!
Nice, it is a great platform for RC
Very nice looking model. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for watching!
Spencer is back! Loved it brother! Now I want to build one as well. Can’t wait for the next video.
Thanks James, this was a really great kit to put together.

Hey, thabks so much for saying. I appreciate it.

Is it juste or the headlights are slightly tilted ?
it is totally possible they are slightly tilted. Models sometimes don't go together quite as clean as we would like them to. haha.

Hey mate-, I would like to know the material list for each section of the car. Could you let me know what products (paint) you used?
For paint I really only use two brands, Tamiya or Vallejo. For the Tamiya paints, I use their primer always, and then colors I use their Acrylic line. Easy to find, easy to clean, easy to use.

Salut my friend super car. super video subscribe subscribe
Thank you for the sub! It is appreciated.
Does this need glue?
Yes it does require glue
Great Build 😄 I like the color of the muffler. What paint have you used for that?
The exhaust came all chrome in the kit. There are actually several exhaust choices with this kit. I just use some of the Tamiya clear blue on the tip and a few other spots. I need to work on my exhaust work. 😅😅
@@ScaleAutoGarage Got it 👍In the Video it looked like you have used some chrome color or else.
tyre can spin?
yes they can!
Can you do 98' Pontiac Firebird ram air?
Would be an interesting build but I would have to find the kit first. :-( That is not as easy for me as one might think.
@@ScaleAutoGarage there's a lot of those on american ebay but nearly all of them are over $60
3:15 how did you put that part did you glue it or not
Yes, I use glue, usually a Tamiya liquid cement but occassionally I will use a bob smith super gold plus superglue as needed.
If you are asking about the wheel hub specificly, no, you don't glue this part in place so that when it is complete you can move the steering from side to side.
Can someone give me a list of the tools and shades of paint he used? I just bought this kit recently and im rewally new to this 😅 Thanks in advance!
