Tamiya 2016 Acura NSX

[martinfan5]

All finished up minus the they are not really metal transfers markings for the hood/rear end,  love this shade of blue, it is even better in person, the camera does not do it justice, its is gorgeous.   I replaced the side/hood mesh decals over clear parts with just real meshing,  since there are no markings, I did do the car with LHD( US Spec).

Far as we all know, this will be my last completed model for the year that isnt already started( meaning, I have some other projects that I want to try and finish up)

Enough of the words.

It really is a beautiful color and good paint work and a nice modeling job overall. Not being able to see any part of the engine is kind of a deal killer for me though.

Awesome job. That is strange about the emblems, which according to Bob Downie, are stickers not metal transfers. 

I agree with you that I think Gravity Colors' Novelle Blue is a tad darker than the real color. I saw another NSX on FB painted with GG's color and that was the first thing I noticed.  I'm painting mine Valencia Red, partly because GG's color is off, and partly because I'm doing a tribute (but updated) version of my original NSX, which is Formula Red with ivory/black interior.

Correct, I spoke with Bob and that is what he told me as well,  I had sort of feeling that is what they were.

I do think the shade is tad dark, but I still love the color and happy with it.
