I think you've changed my modelling life by what you did there - painted the black parts first (hood, window trims ...), masked them off and then painted the body. I've been doing it the other way around (paint the body, mask the trims, cut too deep into paint and f***k up the trims...) for ages. I am for sure going to use your approach on the very next model. Thanx for the idea!
Hahaha yeah after i found out this way it saved me tones of time and hassle, but the only problem is that the trim will be glossy and not semi gloss. Not too obvious tho😉
@@JHHobby Since I mainly build beaters and rat-rods, I almost never use gloss after the paint job, as having the flat or semi-gloss surface gives me a better canvas for all the weathering. But still, on glossy cars, I'd rather see a glossy trim, than a messed-up trim :D
@@JHHobby youve inspired me to make scale models, Now my subaru WRX sti wrc from 2002 is coming along great. You have taught me alit through your tutorials. I dont know how to thank you.
Just finishing up my first car kit since watching all of your videos. Your tips and tricks really helped to make this my best kit yet. Thanks for the help!
Looks so good. I'd imagine I'd be too scared on doing a modification for the first time (albeit the one on this build was nothing on the tutorial video you made). But I suppose there is only one way to get better.
I'm just finishing up the Fujimi NSX-R kit...and I have to say that the fit and finish is TERRIBLE. Lots of extra work to get things to line up nicely (mainly the windows and the extra R parts: front and rear lips)
I got my Tamiya branded stuff from a seller on eBay...which ended up coming from Japan. Didn't seem to be any stock in North America. This is the first time I've seen this other brand.
