Not many of these Tamiya kits done to that quality, very nicely done!

[@joebalusikiii5811]

Great job. Black is so tough to make flawless looking. Prep and prep some more!

[@ModelingInMotion]

That's such a special car!

[@granpaaucarre7914]

Big scale, Big job, great job

[@prugnotpascal]

une belle réalisation qu'on aimerait voir fini..... une légende de la marque..

[@deanlewis8083]

I still have the 1/12 scale testers kit of that

[@michaelbrinkley9323]

Very nice as usual 👌

[@GDB18PSI]

Finally kinda saw your face. Handsome guy!

[@stoneysscapes7544]

This video is the tranquility that I was overdue for, especially since it's Sunday and the only thing I have to do is whatever I want 🏈

[@jakebrown2336]

Truth!

[@BrodieD]

That black looks super sleek. I love a good lamborghini

[@bigben8057]

Can you please tell me how you clean your airbrush after work?

[@SC.243k]

Great 😊

[@jakebrown2336]

We almost got a face reveal! I think he might be bald!

[@Car_guymemes]

Where

[@DirtyFacedKid]

Awesome!. Nice job. Still have a body kit in my stash from way back. I've got the body mounts up on Thingiverse.

[@idesignyou...9257]

Wow would love to have a spare body for mine! You don't by any chance have a spare wiper blade and mirrors! lol

[@richarkfire]

Hi, a question for you. How many psi did you use?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

29

[@michaelhintzmikesminiature1812]

👍👍👍👍

[@jaanikaapa6925]

Do love the Walter Wolf styled car, the round overhanging flared fenders and wider tyres. This gave the look for the real LP500/5000. I believe it should be an LP40OS... But that's just box stuff.

[@BobH809]

Liking your ingenuity there Tom, using the box's to hold the body of the car from inside. Way too big for the Tamiya painting stand you usually use. As always, great job.

[@johngrubb1590]

It looks fantastic, if it was mine I'd go a dark metallic red it would look so cool, just my preference.

[@idesignyou...9257]

Amazing spray work would love to see the final result with it all together!

[@TheAndrian463]

Cool RC, still got mine from the 70s.

[@zamoragera13]

I like to see it when it's fully assembled.

[@rcsenior8082]

Great finish! Which Tamiya body is this?

@@TheScalemodelingChannel Thanks! I wish I could find something similar to Xray X12 -23. Countach is still the king of all cars together with the F40.

[@kitho2015]

Hello, How much PSI did you set on your compressor while using Mr. Hobby PS290 airbrush to spray primer, body color and the 2K clear coat respectively? Thank you very much.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

2 bar. 29 psi

[@deanjohn9203]

Great work, as usual! I noticed you're using the Round head on the PS290... wouldn't the Fan head have covered better?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Could be. However. I personally never got it working right for me.

[@themodelhobbyist]

As always very nice work 🙂

[@starscream8163]

Nice. Can you put Tamiya Enamel paint details over Lacquer clear areas?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Yes

[@starscream8163]

@@TheScalemodelingChannel Ohh nice, Is Enamel paint better than Acrylic paint when painting over the Lacquer Base? Enamel paint and Enamel thinner doesn't effect and harm Lacquer basecoat and clear areas?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

@@starscream8163 enamel takes longer to dry. But should be a “tougher” finish. As long as the lacquer is fully cured. Brushing a different type of paint on top does not harm it from my experience.

[@starscream8163]

@@TheScalemodelingChannel I know Lacquer and Enamel takes longer to dry. I just want to know if Enamel doesn't ruin the Lacquer basecoat and clearcoat when removing them with Enamel thinner.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

@@starscream8163 if you remove it fast enough it should not do much harm. Acrylic thinners are a lot “saver”

[@jptacoma]

Awesome job as usual. What size needle did you use in your airbrush

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

0,5 and 0.3
