you know what? i feel so stupid. i just found teh legend in the instructions. i can't believe i missed it, it was just kind of jumbled in with the other languages and i completely over looked it. thank you for the chart though.

does anyone know about the seats?

Hey Fox, check this out http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/paints/images/acrylic_chart.jpg

that's the color chart for Tamiya....Also check the inside cover of your directions, in the lower right hand side of the directions is usually where they put the color chart for Tamiya models. I haven't tried duplicating cloth seats yet, but perhaps someone else will know that....at least if you know the colors, you can get started!!!Wink [;)]Tongue [:P]

Tamiya Mitsubishi Lancer Evo paint question.
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, March 6, 2004 10:15 PM
I just got this model today in the mail, and i have been looking through the peices and studying the instructions. I really want to make this model look nice.

so i have a few questions to anyone that has worked with Tamiya car models before.

for starters (my biggest problem) i can't seem to find a color legend. i see parts are pointed out and they say things like "x-18" which i assume is a color, but i have no legend to tell me what color that is. or maybe i am just missing it. can anyone help? am i just missing an instruction book, or does tamiya make colors that are labeled and they expect me to use their colors.

i noticed in the picture on teh side of the box that the seats seem to have a cloth texture to them. but the model they are smooth. does anyone know how to get the cloth texture?

thats pretty much my only problems. i look forward to making this model. an di will post pictures when i am done.

thanks in advance.
