Tamiya GR Supra + Carbon on TE37s

[lghtngyello03]

Again, I have not posted any of this in the WIP page, as I have the entire build on my Instagram/Facebook, Scott's Scaled Builds.

 

This was a super fun build and went together like any Tamiya kit does….with no issues at all. 

 

The color is Turbulence Grey from Splash Paints topped with their 2k clear as well. 

 

I decided to do a split carbon roof with carbon decals from Scale Motorsports. The mirrors, front splitter, and side skirts have also been covered in Scale Motorsports carbon decals. 

 

The interior is stock, but has embossing powder to simulate carpet. It’s painted using Splash Paints semi-gloss black, and interior red paints. 

 

The wheels are Volk TE37s, and we’re printed by myself. They are finished in Splash Paints Beluga Black, and topped with Splash Paints 2k clear. They also have red Hobby Design Volk logos, some lug nuts, and RB motion valve stems. Stock kit tires were used and fit perfectly. 

 

The chassis was slightly weathered to give it some depth. 

 

Thanks everyone for checking it out! On to the next one!

Scott...I really liked this kit when I did mine.  Yours turned out spectacular.   The 2k clear really makes it jump. Well done.

Thanks Rich!  This kit was an absolute dream to build.  As every Tamiya kit has been, it just fell right together.  2k Clear is definitely a game changer on your final finish as well.

Awesome finish!  The paint feels like it is still wet from the factory! 

Great work overall, I like this a lot!

Beautiful looking paint finish and the color shows the body lines well. Great attention to detail and clean assembly. The photography is impressive as well.

Great looking model! Excellent paint and detail work. Also liking your photography, I like how a dark background with reflection makes a car stand out.

Thank you! This was a great kit to build, as any Tamiya kit has been, haha. Pics were taken with my iPhone 12 pro max, not too shabby for a phone.

Thanks a lot!! I was using white as my background for the longest.  Black changes everything it seems.  It definitely makes things stand out more it seems.
