Hi all, quick question on behalf of a friend who has just bought her hubby a King Yellow for Christmas (lucky fella) She has asked about what Tamiya paints are needed for a box art model finish? The Kit is sealed so she doesn't want to open it to see the manual. thanks in advance.

Just Tamiya PS-19 Camel Yellow, it's important to get that specific shade to match the doors & window frames on the decal sheet. Everything else (including the lights and tinted windows) are also part of the decal sheet.

I've yet to build/paint mine, but I think painting it with one 100ml can would be marginal, better to get two?

Perhaps you could also recommend a Tamiya JIS point screwdriver & some sprue cutters

 

Thanks Jonny .. she can now go get all the bits she needs.. nothing worse than getting a present and it not having batteries and the shops are all shut ( story of my childhood)
