Tamiya Mazda MX-5 – Step 1

This step was about the front suspension and brakes.

Here’s the gallery with 17 images of this step.

Lessons learned in this step:

  • This was the first time I’ve used a rattle can to apply paint. It didn’t take but about one coat to do the job, unlike the airbrush with several coats.
  • The panel line accent didn’t have quite the effect I wanted, but it’s close enough.
  • I was pleased with the little detail touches like the bolts painted silver or transparent blue.

This step took about 5 and half hours.
