Lexus LFA (FINISHED)

Lexus LFA

I have been wanting to build this since I picked it up last year at the LBGP from Tamiya, but needed to get some things in order (finished), and decide on a color.  I decided last night…

 

The body is very thin and crisply molded.  I spent about 2-3 hours cleaning up the delicate mold lines on all the body and wing parts.  Primed it with Tamiya fine white primer and put a base coat of TS-45 Pearl White down.

I found a non-pearl white (at least is does not look pearl in the photos) version with a carbon fiber top and rear wing that looks sharp to me.  I used ScaleMotorSports Hi-Def decals (1/20 scale to make the pattern a bit more pronounced).

Once the decal had dried, I clear coated it.
