Tamiya Lexus SC430 Zent

Post by R36adelaide »

Finished up the Tamiya Zent SC430. All the usual fitment quality you would expect from Tamiya, though there were some random holes in the interior floor that needed to be filled. Lots of CF decals added to the interior tub, front splitter and a couple of other spots. The silver half was painted in Tamiya's LP silver mica while the red is TS-49 from the can. Also added some photo-etch hood pins and belts. Clear coat is MR Hobby GX100 which was given a light polish afterwards. Hope you all like it!

Very nice!
I'd like to build a Super GT car myself, just haven't found many.

Did you tint the windows?

Beautiful work...I wish we could get some of the newer Super GT cars, I’d love the last version of the Lexus prior to the Supra.

Nah but the back 'window' is actually a decal.

Agreed! I wish there was more of the modern Super GT cars. All that's out there is the resin kit from modellers of the 2014 GTR

Ooh, that's why it looks so dark - plus I bet less light it getting inside as well.

Looks cracking! 👍
