I agree about the grip. I got the one for the Tamiya trigger type and it fits perfectly.

LO Look at this Procon PS-290 Same quality half the price. When you get a trigger type nothing else will be as fun to use. I have this airbrush and absolutely love it. I think the pre-order thing is a website error. I have had mine for 2 years and there are 25 reviews.. Contact them if you are interested.

They also left out the inter-cooler pipes. You can also make the brake ducts but both were a PITA but they do add to the engine bay look. -
Magnifier (Trumpeter) 1/12 Ford GT40

Another way I would try is paint the seat with a silver lacquer like TamiyaTS-30 Silver Leaf then airbrush Tamiya XF1 Flat Black acrylic over it. When dry use the Tamiya small Q-tips soaked in ammonia too carefully remove the black Ammonia will not touch the lacquer but will easily remove the acrylic. You probably could scrape off the black with toothpicks. this is also a good trick for doing BBS style wheels. -

How are the seat rivets done? -
This guy needs help!

Using Future under the decal can glue and help the decal stick. After drying excess Future can be removed with ammonia.

Do not go near TS36. It has known issue with cracking. It has cracked every time I used it even a test on a spoon. -

Toning down kit chrome - I remember an article ?

Use a semigloss clear instead of a flat clear. Tamiya's TS-79 is a good choice. Testors was good too but you will not be able to get it anymore. -

Awesome work. Great looking chassis. -
Tamiya's Lacquer Thinner should be used with their paints. It's alcohol based which allot safer than cheap hardware stuff that has allot of Acetone in it. It looks like you need more thinner to get rid off that awful orange peel effect.

If you can find it Tamiya has that green for there 1/12 scale kit. I think it will be limited run. There is no other green that is right. The green is called Cobalt Green.

Watch the alcohol, it will remove Tamiya paints.

WD40 is great at removing all tape and label adhesive residue.
