DON2000 Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Good afternoon everyone! I finished my next Tamiya 24303 model - Lexus Zent Cerumo SC 2006. The model is built practically out of the box. Used - Studio27 SC430. Tamiya LP series paint was used for painting. The model is coated with 2K varnish. Car polishes were used. Enjoy watching. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Chernosky Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Pretty cool looking Lexus. I have done this kit but in a different livery. I am wondering about the paint division between the red and silver. Is that a red decal that separates the two colors and did you have to match the paint to the decal. If so you did an outstanding job. It looks flawless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The model was first painted silver and red. According to the instructions, namiya TS-49 should be used. I don't use cylinders. That’s why I chose tamiya LP-50 to match the color of the sticker. The body color must match the color of the sticker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been my experience with Tamiya that they usually match their decals to their paint line. And LP50 is the match for TS49. So next Tamiya project keep that in mind and follow the instructions. (which you did) And test first, of course. This one turned out perfect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
