tamiya

This is a topic both specific question and general comment on Tamiya paints. First, in general, why do they have so many colors, including some so close to each other, but fail to have US inteterior green and want you to custom mix two colors. And the result does not even look right. Compared to...

1/32 Tamiya M2 Bradley IFV kit just completed. Might try a simple diorama for this one. Real basic kit, but fun quick build. I love rubber tracks! Just saves so much frustration and once weathered looks better in my opinion. I have a Takom Chieftain coming that is individual links that Amazon...

I just completed this 1983 Nissan Pulsar kit from Aoshima. Like any of these 1/24th scale automotive kits from Aoshima, they are well engineered, and relatively simple. It is a curbside kit, so the hood does not open. The interior is simple but pretty well represented. And the best part is...

Finishing up the decals…they seem to be endless on this one. Then a quick dull coat and weathering. Trying to decide what to do next. Thinking of a P-51 or a Spitfire. I’ve never done an Eduard before so I’m thinking about trying that route, open to suggestions. It will be my 4th since...

I finished the build without any major issues, but now I'm setting up to paint and I'm a little unsure about a few things. I...
