Yes, it is quite expensive if you compare them to Maisto or other such die cast car manufacturers.

But they are all Transformers just in case you did not know. The Binaltech is close to RM200 cos it is die cast metal while the Alternator is RM99.90 cos it is plastic. Other differences are in the packaging, colour scheme etc.

I love these babies cos they look superb in car mode albeit the slight gaps, and also looks good in robot mode. thumbup.gif

i am using industrial can sprays which are thick and need lot of patinece to smoothen it so it will not look thick. i am using anchor brand for primer, color and clear coat.

i would recommend you to use tamiya can sprays although it's expensive. try sourcefrom singapore SD 8 only compare to here RM 30.

1st
most important you will have to use sandpaper to sand the body and parts. when it dry, give a coat of primer. next spray the desired color in 4 steps ( 2 mist coat and 2 heavy coat ) let them dry between layers. then stick decals and spray clear coat. next if you get orange peel, you will have to wetsand ( use tamiya 1000, 1500, 2000 grit ) and polish with tamiya polishing compound or soft99 wax( it's long process ) and then make the body to do the window panel lines.
chassis can be spray according to body color with detailings according to the manual. beware of some manuals cause it's not accurate wink.gif

hope it helps......
i am a noob too
LOL

ok
to fix the clear parts like lamps i would recommend you MRHOBBY Cement , tamiya extra thin cement ,white glue or those glue you use when you are a kid.

use SUPER GLUE or CEMENT to glue the parts together.

for the window clear parts , use double side tape will help alot...

do not attempt UHU cause it will bedamn sticky ..

i am using tamiya masking tape . 6 mm one. the good part about tamiya masking tape is the possibility of the paint seeping through is low......mostly it will not bleed...but tamiya masking tape in malaysia is expensive , RM 8 to RM 20. i am using the small one 6mm..
try hobby shops, you can find them

the purpose of sanding the body is to make the PRIMER and PAINT to hold on to the body to prevent chip off.
to begin to sand an unpainted model start with 1000, then 1200 and then 1500.
but i usually sand using 1200 only. ( lazy )
if you get orange peel on the models after clear coat, you can wetsand using 1500 or 2000 grit and then polish it..


masking
for example , your car is blue and white.
after you spray white, you will mask the area that is white before spraying blue.
there lots of technique for modelling and take it easy mate icon_rolleyes.gif

actually i don't reccomend fujimi
most of the kits have fitment problems and are not very realistic compare to tamiya and hasegawa.
but still i have lots of fujimi kits because they have the cars i want to build.
plus fujimi kits are very expensive nowadays. i am eyeing on the new evo 9 gsr ralliart kit and cost RM 90+ ...
but so far i have little fitment problems with fujimi models except for the Suzuki Wagon R..damn terrible fitment...waste RM 50 on that junk kit..
tamiya have limited models because they only do the cars they like.
hasegawa make good rally models......

i have a HASEGAWA mitsubishi lancer evolution one safary rally i bought at singapore for SD 22 only. The kit is out of production and a super rare kit. my friend recently saw it at hongkong for RM 490.yawn.gif

this are few questions

the thinner is it same with the thinner that sellin at hardware shop ?
whas the different between can spray and bottle 1 (yours)
extra thin cement is for what use ?
the glue up the rear lamp or front lamp and windscreen ?
and what use of the glue that kids using 1 ?

if use tamiya cement still nessasary to get elephant super glue ?
the 2 tape is it masking tape ?
buy at where ? any stationary shop or DIY shop ?
what is the finishing abrasive for ?

what is the tamiya 'wan bang' for ? (round round stick)
what is the BONDITE ???

no, the thinner is not the same. this thinner is for use only to dilute enamel colors ( the small bottles colors ) and to clean the dirty edges when you free hand color the window panes that are overpaint.


the small bottles are for detailing purposes not for spraying. use brush to color them.

extra cement is to glue up parts. it's better than the cement( orange cap) which is quite concentrated an messy.

rear lamps , front laps can use tamiya cement, extra thin, mr hobby cement , white glue and those glue we use in sch back then. windscreen i usually cut double side tape to stick it.

the glue i mean was the normal one that we use to stick papers together when work or study.

yes, super glue is a must. because some parts will be held strongly by super glue like if u break the tyres inner part that we fix to the chassis, we use super glue ( like my evo 3 ) and not cement cause it drys too long.

those two tapes tamiya masking tape 6 mm and 20 mm.
RM 8 for the 6mm and about RM 12 for the 20mm.

get from hobby shops.

finishing abrasive is tamiya high quality sand paper to wetsand after spraying and then polish to achelieve shiny effect.


wan bang got lots of uses. like they say fujimi tyres are FEMALE while tamiya tyres are MALE. so we use it to conver tfujimi tyres to fit to tamiya models.

bondite is to cover up holes and scratch build bodykits. ( smooth the curves )

permenant markers smile.gif

I rebuild this model. Color is Blue and clear coated with FELT GREEN color and polished. This car now looks like a Lancer with evo 3 bodyparts on the front and side profile. I removed the intercooler and replace with the Radiator from Tamiya Evo 6. The rear spoiler is removed also. The side mirros are black in color so as the front air scoop on the bonnet.Rear lamps are tinted red color completely for a fiercer look .Just a simple rebuild.

I considered this model as a Lancer 4wd.

IT's been ages since i complete a model

I don't know what happen to my first time rebuild, the paint job seems got problem so i strip it and rebuild it.Interior and chassis from my Evo V ( Rebuilding also with custom interior ).
I put a AE86 spoiler on the rear ,using Tamiya R34 Mesh to have a realistic look, tinted the rear lamp, and let the front lamp be a bit pinkish.
I know the problem with the ralliart sticker , will rectify it soon.

Interior is using front seats from R33 skyline GTS(Tamiya)..
Rims are from Fujimi R32 Skyline..


Enjoy !~

the AE86 is from Fujimi...the rest are from tamiya...don't really fancy fujimi as some parts are not as "real" as what Tamiya has. i mean there are parts of the model which are not as detailed as tamiya's. for example... the AE86 has no disc brakes....but the problem is...only fujimi comes out with models like these....u know what i mean? like altezza, AE86, and lots more....you can't really get an altezza from tamiya rite?

erm...those are plastic models....scale 1/24. they come with pre-painted body. you can choose to paint or not to paint it but, normally i paint it (spray it using tamiya spray for the body and paint smaller parts using tamiya acrylic paint). due to limited budget, i use only tamiya can spray. can't afford to buy a paint brush...the effect will be better if there is a paintbrush around.

too bad that my skills are not up to the level...just like what we can see in tamiya's masterwork collection.

fujimi model:

the AE86(2 tone, black-white; painted the black part but the white, i just left it that way)
Attached Image

tamiya models:

the WRX(not painted as it is pre-painted)

the skyline brothers(R33-not painted, R34-painted; can't really show the difference in the pictures; might be easier to differentiate in real life)

I ve seen da Tamiya catalogue. AFAIK da only Bimmers they have are the 635Csi and da E21 320i Jagermeister. have yet to see a E30 model. im looking for a E34 ACS S5 model or other M5 models.

unsuccessful so far. hav seen E34 models by other brands, but they are not very detailed. quite disappointed wif da lack of choices.

building up bikes is more complicated than building up cars....agree?
bikes have hoses and smallers parts which builds up the engine...the stickers come in big pieces like the repsol honda and the loris "west" edition (the black one)...the ducati is a simpler one as the stickers are just only a few pieces as what u can c........

Here's my pearl RX-8 still WIP. Sorry about the cuteness, pink feel of this car. It was by accident actually blush.gif . It was originally white wif the Tamiya TS spray. But I got iitchy and sprayed pearl white as an experiment...

Then since it gave that wub.gif feeling, so i kinda decide to make it a cute rx-8 wif hello kitty stickers. I can't stand the stares of the sales gal at those souvenir shops when I look for hello kitty stickers. One of them even squat beside me and in a serious tone ask me what i was looking for. sweat.gif

So end up finding these korean stickers at Popular bookstore where I could have some peace of mind to choose.

ok
very easy mate
did you clear coat your model?
recommend to clear coat first wink.gif
then wait it dry...

wetsand the model with 1000, then 1500 then 2000 gritt...
make sure you don't oversand it.. i mean the edges.. i tend to have that problem also....like the curve of the model...becareful

then polish with wax/polishing cream eg : soft99 polish cream
with a cloth..then can eliminate

ok
very easy mate
did you clear coat your model?
recommend to clear coat first wink.gif
then wait it dry...

wetsand the model with 1000, then 1500 then 2000 gritt...
make sure you don't oversand it.. i mean the edges.. i tend to have that problem also....like the curve of the model...becareful

then polish with wax/polishing cream eg : soft99 polish cream
with a cloth..then can eliminate

the sandpaper...can u get them at hardware shops? or they must be tamiya's ones? is it the higher the number of sandpaper the finer the they are?
wetsand them...does it destroy the paintwork? coz i've tried wetsanding my models....it became "unshiny"...u know what i mean rite? ("kesan calar" in malay)...u mean by polishing, it will get rid of the "kesan calar" thingy??
btw, soft99, where can i get it? recommendations?

yeap
you can use any sandpapers
i am using combo of normal sandpaper and tamiya sandpaper....
yeap..higher number ..the smoother the sandpaper..and finer it is
it doesn't destroy the paint job if you sand it properly.. do it gently.....don't rub on it hard or you tend to oversand..
yes if you polish you will get rid most of the scratches but make sure you cloth is clean

soft99 is a car polishing cream wink.gif so you know where to get it

where do you get polishing cream? i've asked a few tamiya shops...and they don't seem to know what i'm asking for....that is so long time ago..and also they usually don't have the variety of sandpapers.....very very sad...

Well, i got it somewhere. It's an very very old kit but the details are quite good.
There is an engine hidden inside the rear bonnet ! But i forget to photograph it..
I forget to sand the moulding lines because it's not obvious and only realised it after polishing !!! but it's not visible as it flush to the body lines...
Well, this is my first Exotic European car and it took me two weeks to complete everything...I broke my dormancy as I mostly build JDM cars ! laugh.gif laugh.gif
Well, It's not that perfect but I am still learning !

hey cham2020.....nice build there...wish i could do something like that....but the decal at the rear (NGK) might look a bit weird for a lambo....hehe just my thoughts...
let me ask u 1 opinion...which one would you go for between honda s2000-tamiya or silvia s15 aero-aoshima...coz im planning to get one....

btw what clear coat do you use? anchor or tamiya....if tamiya's, 1 can doesn't look enough rite? need to get 2?
my previous builds did not get clear coats on...can they be polished too?
oh yea...can clear coat be coated on windscreens and lamps?

but it's up to you la..
i never build aoshima kits before so dare not leave any comments

i am using industrial clear
it depends... i have a singapore friend that can spray 3 cars using a bottle of tamiya can sprays..so it's enough ...don't worry !

RALLY TO STREET CONVERSION
Well, It is a Tamiya kit and the details are freaking awesome and 100% fitment.
It's a perfect kit by Tamiya. !!!
Color is sprayed red + one layer of pearl orange + clear and polished..
It's not that perfect as the paint is experimenting..
the Intercooler at the front is HOME made ..

Anyway, do enjoy the photos my friends wink.gif

Yo Naka7a,

myself a semi-retired car modeller n amateur photographer....

dun know what camera u use....tell me...so tht i can figure out the advice....

Anyway, with normal digital camera, use Auto mode (usually icon as green square on your camera) will able to do a decent job. Macro shot with point n shoot digital camera usually will also do the job but with digital SLR - superb. Nikon, Canon, Sony n the usual camera brands are ok to the job. Like car modelling, you need practice when taking photos of your beloved car models.

When taking the car models, position yourself in a stable n comfortable place. Use something like ground or whatever you can hang on or better still use a mini tri-pod to mount your digital camera to take it. Use timer to shoot to obtain a sharper image.

That's all.

Dear car modellers,

I have a proposition for seasoned n experienced car modeller.

I have a unbuild Fujimi 1/24 AE-86.
I need someone to build this for me. Need to negotiate the art-work price (labour price lor....).

the unbuild AE-86 model i provide. Manual got.
Paint, brush, whatever not provided by me, you have to find it by yourself.
Need person to build it straight from the box, no ned fancy mods...
Must be good in car modelling.

I need the person to build it - top white, bottom black, panda styled, just like
the Initial D type. Need the person just to build it straight from the box (the unbuild car model i provide but materials ie. paint, brush, etc is by you)

Will meet up somewhere in Klang Valley, let u see the stuff, check it.
U take it , u build it, meet up again, give me the completed model n i pay u.
Simple, really.

I don't allow mistakes and don't come back to me with "man, i lost the signal light la...i lost the wind screen la, i broke the rim la... blah blah... - CANNOT !!.

If you are up to it, PM me. Will answer all PMs in few days time.

Reason for this : no time to build it myself and all my paint dried up, sandpaper
dun know gone where, paint-brush kidnapped, etc etc....

falken704
p/s - for the person who seriously taking this job, may need a deposit from u
be'cos i dun know who u are, u re taking my precious model kit away to
build.....

Naka7a,

k800 is Sony Ericsson phne rite?... better take with digital camera. Aldy spend time, money n effort on the car model, take a good picture of it to treasure it n most important, share it....
Usuallyl fujimi models can get in Toycity shops...but M'sia have limited stocks on specific car models anyway. Perhaps u can try model hobby shops...


cham2020,

thanks for the advice, will check it out.

the R34 diorama, I got only one word : "NOOOOoooooo"

in bahasa version : "Tidaaakk......"

got suggestion: write the word on the diorama -
"You may wreck your life but don't wreck your 34"

then give to some TV stations or JPJ to advertise,
guarantee less statistics on the road....

but for the diorama - creative...horiffic...but creative...

very nice collection, i want all of it, thank you.
Just kidding. Anyway nice collection.

If you build already, how to transport the model to me?
Will risk damage to our deary/precious AE86....dun wan that to happen.
Won't forgive myself man....
I think you better keep your model, it is quite difficult to get in M'sia.
I think maybeeee.....in very distant future.... i will try to build my AE86 up...

Thanks fr the offer cham2020...

andy,
tamiya cars came in plastic colors... you have to paint them yourself if you wan it to look realistic.

i never calculate the cost.. but for me building a car cost me the kit price and about +RM 10 to RM 15 of paint, glue, colors....

yeah, i did all them throughout the year...

1) Base coat is flat black and sprayed with pearl orange ,cleared and polished
2) Interior seats from Imprezza WRX Type 4.
3) Rims from Fujimi Evo VIII GSR
4) The lamps have their edges painted black for more realistic look.
5) The rear lamps signal indicator are painted orange but it's a bit dark.

I have no choice but to rebuild this cause when i rearrange my collection , I accidently push this model down from and it broke when it hit the floor...worse it there are scratches that are deep. So i decide to rebuild it...

I gave the rims gloss silver colors...
The body is base coated with flat black and color is silver over it and cleared and polish. This created something like a 'gun metal' color effect...
Well, I find it wierd, although it is shiny it seem doesn't reflect it well..Is it
because of it is a metallic color ? However, the hood has a little orange peel problem.. I will rectify it sooner..
Another succesfull thing about this build is I manage to prevent oversanding on edges which I encountered in the RED COLOR build..
And the tyres seems to be too wide in the previous build and I rectify it already in this build..

Before ( I still love the RED one but I have another same kit but will be this color !)

Greetings to cham2020 and all,

I was brought here by cham2020 as I restarted my hobby after 'resigning' 5 years back due to time constraint...my build skill is considered ok but not as those u see on modelling shops..still need more experience in painting.. icon_question.gif

Recently I am back into this hobby since I am able to find some 1/24 tamiya models at 1/2 price(toycity) and also Tamiya Underground @ 1U is currently having discount till end Feb(worth checking out) ..been buying models and now I need time to diy them..

I am currently using Tamiya cement and Mr Hobby colors as I find them cheaper and the quality is similar to Tamiya paints..never tried spraying before but I am willing to learn and share experience with all the 'sifus' here notworthy.gif

Another Evo ( Not Rebuild )

Well, manage to finish it before Chinese New Year..
Color is 'Saga Blue' that is a pearl color. Rims from Tamiya Evo 6. The offset is a bit negative due to the tyres and rims are a bit big....Just a simple build..

OK guys, need an opinion between these 2 Skylines.

Aoshima's BNR34 SKyline GT-R V-spec II

OR

Tamiya's BNR34 Skyline GT-R V-spec II

I know the Tamiya version have some additional parts, but I'm hunting for better detail + proportions here.

hi kaken,
the initial d fujimi one is an ol kit that is repackaged. the fitting is poor especially for the interior and you must notice the rims.. the rear ones are fatter than the front one...and if you wrongly assemble it's wierd.
plastic quality is also not good and clear parts looks cheap to me...

i suggest you get the aoshima version of initial d and they come with engines smile.gif


Evo 7 ? Try comparing to Tamiya Evo 7 Rally.Blow Fujimi off totally

Bought evo VII + integra DC5 for Rm98 at Toycity IOI. buy 1 free 1. But this offer is different from shop to shop. I went to klcc toycity, they had different cars on offer. the integra was just on 20%.

ArChAng3L work's clean . Still can also enhance the looks with panel lines.

heblms: Try toycity..currently they are having a sale and selected models (tamiya,fujimi etc) are buy 1 free 1.. quite worth it..

mostly the prices varies depending on the model..the newer the model the more $$ it is..like the calsonic skyline z jtcc is about rm170 less 20% (if got sale)

others like the normal passenger car (evo6 or skyline r34) price is about rm80 for tamiya brand..

you could also try Tamiya Underground at 1Utama..they have a very good selection but unfortunately i think the sale is over ( used to be 35% off for all models)..

happy hunting! thumbup.gif

I've got a question. How much would an Enzo Ferrari Rosso Corso tamiya kit cost in Malaysia? My friend's offering to sell his yet-to-be-assembled-kit which he bought 2 years back in Hong Kong. Still in mint condition. He also bought the cement, spray and everything. He forgot how much he bought the kit for so he's asking me to offer him a price. I'm so tempted to get it. Hope it ain't a killer price though.

wow.. looks good. I used to build model airplanes when I was a kid, but never got into car models because it was harder than my skill level at the time (I was 8). But I think it's still harder than my skill level now, with all the engine detail, interior and decals to apply.

u mean the paints? i'm not pretty sure but normally, i use tamiya can spray to spray up the model's body part...then overcoat it with the industrial clear paint.....till now, i have no problem with it.....if u need to know more on industrial paint, i guess cham2020 has the much better info....coz i learned some from him.

but.....if u wanna use industrial spray(color) to spray ur model....ur model might not end up looking so real due to the color pigments....industrial color pigments are larger than tamiya's

if color...i would advise u to stick back to tamiya's......clear coat...u can use industrial 1....for me, those clear coats did well....the quality is around the same as tamiya's clear coat i guess. just that u need to do a good wet sanding and polishing job lor...but overall.....outcome at the end would be nice....look at cham2020's work...nice....

Finish this recently.... removed the door handles for a cleaner look. Sprayed chrome yellow to test it because i am bad in spraying yellow.. Turns out quite well...
Mirrors are sprayed with Clear Green and I find it quite nice although I am sure some of you guys out there might not like it... Interior is simple ..combo of silver, black and red....
Rims are from Fujimi Evo VIII GSR...
some little oversand but overall I am satisfied as this kit gives me lots of problems in terms of fitment..never touch the same kit again....

i always sometimes tend to hurry
that's why sometime got screw up

well, yes
clear coat can prevent decal from yellowing
after fixing the decal
let it dry and then spray clear coat on it...
that's all

evoHahn: models are damn cheap here..tht's y i got a dozen already..dunno how to carry it back..haha..take for example..the tamiya evo 5 wrc..it's selling for rm38 laugh.gif

so far the best deal i got is the the tamiya calsonic impuz z (with die cast underpanel) got it for only RM60 thumbup.gif and the tamiya rally mechanics diorama kit..i got it for rm25 icon_idea.gif

i dont think i will be visiting TU for some time now being..haha.. smile.gif

Oh yeah they already have the Tamiya OpenInterface SC430 JGTC selling for RM86..dont think this has arrive in KL yet..

lanevo: u can also use those removal liquid to remove nail paints..(those use by ladies/girls to remove the paint on their nails) i took some from my aunty..it worked like a marvel on my car..cos i did the similar mistake like u whistling.gif

Nissan skyline R34 rims for trade!!!!

Well, I have one set of tyres and rims to trade for another set of male tyres...provided the width of the tyres and rims are shorter than the one i am trading......

one thing though...the male rode are all broken due to bad modeling skills i had in the past...

yeap
i am getting two more daihatsu mira (FUJIMI ) tomorrow from singapore

and recently 2 more evo iii safary rallyand evo iv acropolis rally....

coming up few touge fujimi kits

2 hasegawa civic 4 doors


Added on June 14, 2007, 11:36 amWell, this is my first attempt at building a rally car..lots of things to learn..
Wetsanding and polishing the decals under the clear coat is hard and need to careful..

I am quite frustrated as there are fitments problems with the kit and I can't believe Tamiya have fitments problems as I build a few Tamiya Evo's without fitments problems...Like the rear lamps wouldn't fit, side mirrors will not fit, interior doesn't fit 100%....

I weathered it a little to try my weathering skills. This model is not very perfect as there are mistakes and I am learning from my mistakes....

This is my most detailed model I build under 2 weeks....


Enjoy....

cam5229,
beautiful collection you have there! What happen to the autoart evo vi headlamps?
your models are looking good...the Tein evo i have but havent build yet...
scare i ruin that model...
to ans your questions
1) to create dirty effect, i use poster colors and tamiya enamel colors
2) i use tamiya enamel colors and mix it with enamel thinner to dilute it
alot, then use brush,let it run along the lines and clean the excess..

Guys, noob here.. just starting out on this hobby..

Where is a good place to get tools/equipment (paint, polishing compound, wax, sand papers, paint brushes, masking tape etc)?

There's a lot of discussion on painting the car body. Any tips for painting the interior (ie. painting seats/dashboard with different colors etc)?

Thanks in advance..

This is my currently finish Levin 86. Long time didn't touch modeling. Skills rusted.... So bear with me.

Some unevenness in paint but overall I think it's quite OK .
Color is Gold + Black for the body to match it's twin the Treuno AE86 . Interior is stock with rollcage and driver seat from Fujimi Evo series.
Got a spare tyre from Evo VI like the AE86 Treuno.
Hope you guys enjoy this badly build model..

yeap,,i bought it at singapore for RM 30 like that..
My car models are painted using hardware paints
so don't worry


MY NEW MODEL

EVO VII (INITIAL D CONCEPT)
Completed..This is a Concept of Takumi replacement car for his AE86. I didn't put the tofu sticker though..as for the police concept, I will do another version later cause I can;t find the appropriate decals.....
Spoiler is from R32 Skyline ...

White is hard to get it clean and shine and dual tone is to test my masking skills.....
Finally, i manage to get most of my modeling skills back and learn new one...

Enjoy

It's not perfect as I made some mistakes on the paint job and the interior weathering is not that perfect.. I know the car ride is high but I want a stock Evo IV..That's why :twisted:

My latest
Japanese Police Evo V
user posted image

Well, this crazy idea came to me suddenly. So I bought an Evo V Rs kit and a Fujimi Police Part Sets and this model was born.
Weathered a bit and the bumpers have scratches all around them.
Interior is also weathered slightly to give a 'used' car effect.

Everything that a police car needed is there.. So positive and negative feedbacks are needed. I know the panel lines are a bit dark but I only realised it after i finished.

it's not really hard if we could hold on to the materials easily... and at a cheaper price. these power modellers has supplies of nice rims, bodykits(some scratched built though) and etched kits... but in malaysia... where to find? unless buy from the net la
