Nic Harrison Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 So for my first build I'm going to try my luck with Tamiya's Aston Martin DBS... Made a start on the engine... Unfortunately its a secondhand kit and some of the decals were missing, that's why only one side has "Aston Martin" Well that's as far as I've got...really enjoying this build! No drama....as yet! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Harrison Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 Finally managed to get some more done... I first followed the instruction manual and painted it German grey but i felt it was all too dark so repainted a lighter colour. Hope you like! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roymattblack Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 A really nice kit but WHY did Tamiya make this British icon LHD??? Good stuff so far though. Nice interior colour. Roy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shood23 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 This is a great kit to build with plenty of scope to add more, that interior is lovely by the way much nicer than what tamiya say to do. There are lots of builds on this car though out the forum, you should check some of them out for ideas and problem areas Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjfk2002 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Nice job so far. I like that interior color. What paint did you use for that tan color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu_davros Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 The Aston is a great kit and you are really doing it justice. Which colour will you do the body? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjhesketh Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 (edited) A really nice kit but WHY did Tamiya make this British icon LHD??? Good stuff so far though. Nice interior colour. Roy. I dunno, but because of that they sold lots of 'em here in the States. Including one to me. Build looks great so far!
