How to Customise and Restore a Honda S2000 Maisto 1/18 diecast model car

[@luisf.piedram.4681]

Finally! A Channel that doesn't need to make fake restorations to make a good video!

[@JHHobby]

Hahaha yeah man🤣 i cant stand those fake resto too🤣

[@Massive_the_Composer]

Can't go wrong with a set of te-37s! Things look good on everything from s2000 models to half million dollar McLarens lol

I was speechless to say how incredible I found it, congratulations!!! As we say in Brazil, the car painting is the icing on the cake, fantastic...

sorry for the late response, thank you so much sir! really appreciate it!

[@milan_2k45]

the amount of hard work that went into this cant not be measured... thank you for sharing

[@JHHobby]

Glad you like it😍😍 thanks!

[@StaticModel]

Almost reminds me one of those channels with fake restoration, when guy breaks models in convenient way for restoration (just scratches paint and throws some dirt on it :D ), but in this case there is actually lots of modeling skill involved, good job! That's sad, when channel like this has so little subs, and fake ones have over 200k... :)

[@JHHobby]

Hahaha true man..fake restorations channel is getting more out there and yeah they all got notice more 🙁 glad you like my build and thank you!

[@gevinduxrs2]

1,000 times better! We need more.

[@JHHobby]

Thank you so much!

As a 16 year old this sounds dope! When I'm older and have enough money for a project car, I need to get a model of it and put all the mods I do onto my project car, onto my model and keep it in my car😉👌 You have inspired me😅

You've made a static display piece which is fine, we're not children who play brum brums with these models. Great work all round making vast improvements. Some of the best mods and resto on KZbin. 10/10

[@user-cj8kz1dq3y]

Great to see the transformation from red to blue. I'm a proud owner of blue S2000 with black interior. Now I need bronze wheels :) Greetings from the Netherlands

[@JHHobby]

Wow cool! Must be nice!😍 S2000 is one of my fav car💙

[@Kevin_Vue_Racing]

other than the brake calipers being in the wrong position, this model car transformation is amazing.

[@metalfacedoom4820]

Nice work, I'm more impressed you didn't strip the paint, make it dirty and "find it" in a creek like the other youtubers 🤣

[@JHHobby]

Hahaha!🤣 im not some fake resto channel🤣🤣

[@RedLP5000S]

I found this very informative. Thank you for giving us the step by step tutorial. Your work looks better than anything that AutoArt could produce. One thing that would have pushed it over the top would be to use some flocking in the interior. Overall, I give this an A+!

[@JHHobby]

hi, thank you so much for the feedback and im so glad you like it! haha ya, flocking the carpet will definitely add more details to it =D

[@menaceIIsociety187]

So cool. Always dreamt of customizing my models as a kid

Instead of sanding the car for hours just soak it in paint thinner for an hour. Literally comes out as bare metal just gotta flick off some goo with a toothbrush. That's what I do on all mine
