The TS range is an acrylic lacquer, on the instructions, if I remember correctly, it used to state TS-enamel-acrylic as the painting order, so the acrylic X range should be fine over the TS clear coat. recommendations I've seen seem to indicate a 50:50 water to paint ratio and around 3 washes to get the desired shade

not something I've been brave enough to attempt as yet, but perhaps some thinned tamiya acrylic smoke washed over the lines? start off slow and let the colour build up to thed required darkness. the acrylic is water based so shouldn't affect the clear and easy to wash off if it all goes wrong

beautiful build, the sms sets are very disappointing, I got the zx-rr set and only used 3 decals

Can I pop my name down for this? Undecided what to build, very probably something protar 1:9
