2016 Honda NSX

[martinfan5]

With the paint I wanted for this now finally available for it( paint has been ordered) , it was time to get started on it.

Engine mostly done, I need to touch up the black, but I doubt I am going to do a lot more since it will be hidden once finished.

Its the newest release from Tamiya.

Looks good Jonathan. How's the engineering? 

And yes, what colour are you going with. Gravity has 2 colours for this one, I really like the blue.

Awaiting further progress.

Gonna be an ace build,I just got mine,,good luck w/yours,bro!

 

[martinfan5]

Thank you guys

I think this should answer the question as to what color I am going to paint it.

[Randy D]

Hi Jonathan,

  The chassis, suspension and motor are looking great !

  That color should be sweet

Very nice. I'm planning to do mine in pearl white or pure red. I'm leaning more towards pearl white as there are a few Ferrari's and they're red.

That's going to look great.

Moving forward , started working on the interior , let's start with the dash, stripped the chrome on the middle section, top/bottom was painted in Tamiya Nato Black, steering wheel/column in semi gloss black


Jumping forward, one completed interior , interior tub and seats painted in a flat black.  Now, I am not going to lie, I am not 100% happy with the interior,  I did attempt to do a black/white interior theme, but it did not turned out very well, so I just went to all black.



And a more closer to finished chassis, all that is left at this point I believe is the two flat panels for the underside and the brake rotors, I have still yet to paint them, and I am trying to find a color, ( preferably in the Metalizer line) that is close to the Carbon Ceramic color




And how about this one( first coat,no pearl coat( mid coat) yet)

Nice Jonathan, very nice. That blue looks phenomenal. Gonna look so good with the pearl and clear on it.

Looking forward to more.

Have you maybe considered mixing colors to create the carbon ceramic color on the brake rotors?

[nicknkim14]

That blue is BLAZING!!!

[Davewilly]

looks pretty cool so far.  Looks like a pretty nice kit. I might have to add it to my "Wants" list

I did, and I did

 

[martinfan5]

The brakes, finally got them done, mixed Tamiya Met Grey and Tamiya Flat black and air brushed them.

Clear coated, time for polishing.

[Bennyg]

Looks good.
