Hey all, so this is my first time doing this. I've just started Tamiya's 1/24 Aston Martin DBS

I've completed the engine

Unfortunately its a secondhand kit and some of the decals have been lost. But so far really enjoying the kit!

Was looking at this one the other day in a LMS and was sorely tempted. AM's are my favourite cars.

Regards, Dave.

I followed the instructions and painted it German Grey, but felt it was too dark so repainted it a lighter colour.

Well, AM does provide a surprising number of options when you buy one...so I'm told...so do whatcha like!

Looks the business so far.
