Tamiya Monkey Groupbuild
Prepped and primed using SMS Grey Primer for most parts and Mr Surfacer 1200 for the tank, frame and a couple of other pieces. First time using Mr Surfacer and I love it! I thinned it down with Mr Levelling Thinners at a 2:1 ratio. Will definitely be using this moving forward.
SMS Chassis Black.
Went for a gold chain. An upgrade available for purchase irl for the Monkey.
SMS Super Silver over Tamiya TS-14 Black.
Frame primed in Mr Surfacer 1200 and painted in Tamiya TS-14 Black
SMS Blue Green Flip Pearl
The green side of the flip
The blue side of the flip
SMS Chrome (cold) over Tamiya TS-14 Black.
Decals going on
Handlebars looking good.
More decals.
Rear mudguard and lights.
Engine completed.
Too heavy on the clear coat and it ate the paint.
Masked the decals with blu-tack and sprayed again. Missed a few spots though.
Remasked and sprayed again. Shouldn't have. Looked better before. This will have to do now.
Wiring and tubing.
Exhaust fitted.
Tank masked and sprayed. Top half is SMS jet black followed by SMS Blue Green Flip. Will need to clean up those edges.
Cleaned up, decals on and clear coated with SMS Super Clear Gloss. Then polished with Tamiya fine and finish compounds and waxed with Meguiars Carnauba car wax.
Fuel cap adde
Model completed.

Beautiful. Love the colors. It's a fun little kit. I should bring mine outside. Love those shots.
