1992 Acura! Honda NSX - wip

Album image #1
I fillered the body today. The rest shows the content of the box.

Fillered. I hate red plastics. To get a light color on the body it only makes problems. So First step will be a layer of filler. Then I'll paint a layer of silver and then I'll crossing fingers that the planned yellow will be yellow and not with a shine of pink.

Here the proof: left side Revell, right side the Tamiya NSX. Revell writes 1/25 on the box, Tamiya 1/24. They are identical in the proportions.

On the top Revell, the other is the Tamiya NSX.

To avoid the red plastics bleeding through the paint, I painted the body parts silver.
Also nice. Like a piece of aluminum.

The final color is done. Okay. Looking forward for the clear coat to get the pearl metallic working. Hopefully.

The black parts are done. Let it sit for a couple days to prepare the clear coat.

Album info

Why I write Acura! Honda NSX for my project? Yes, it is written Honda on the box. But there is an Acura in the box.
The first indicator are the side markers. Those weren't present on the Honda. You couldn't say, it could be the Honda of Japan. Could. But then it should has RHD. The kit doesn't. So an Acura is the best possibility.
It has no Honda Logo on the rims, steering wheel or between rear lights and the Acura doesn't have fog light in the front bumper.
It *is* an Acure in a Honda box.
I was thinking a lot about to fill the side markers and make them disappear. But then: I don't care. It will be an Acura. Period.

It was already started. The engine was put together and a lot of parts were off of the tries.
