They 100% qualify. They are also spectacular.

Yo Tcoat, do you do any non-military models? Just wondering in general, you prefer to make jets and tanks over sports car and spaceships.

In general, do you see any difference on work time? Like car is quicker to finish vs Tank is takes longer to finish.

Tcoat... is there a modeling paint that matches the dark metallic grey colour used on the frs/brz? I thought of using the actual automotive paint but I’m afraid the metal flake in it is to large to look scale like.

There is but I don’t have access to the chart right now. Tamiya makes spray cans for all the colours.

Cars take far longer. The gloss paint takes a pile of work.

I found Tamiya TS-64 Dark Mica Blue (85064) is listed for the DMG, but how would I turn a blue into a grey?
