Aston Martin DBS

G'day guys, finished this up last month. Tamiya's Aston DBS... Colour is a mix of Tamiya French Blue & Brilliant Blue. Nothing too fancy, just detailed the wheels & used better low-profile tyres. Spent a good 6-8hrs polishing this sucker out I recently bought the optional 5 spoke rims & plan on doing another DBS in the future...
Enjoy...






Cheers Cliffo

Very nice, I saw a Jaguar in this colour very similar, awesome.

good looking DBS,taillights look odd with no red in them,would look better with a bit of Tamiya red clear.

Mate this is a really nice build - great colour too. This is one of the great things about this site, you get such a different variety of terrific models.

Cheers & thanx guys 
Allan... Tail lights are meant to be clear as per the 1:1 

The real car is a ripper and so is your model Cliffo. That colour is brilliant! Any shots of the engine?

WOW!! What an excellent build, so tidy. That paint....

As usual mate...very very nice build. Sleak, smooth and neat!!
The work on the blackouts in the wheels certainly paid off too.
Can't wait to see what else you put up here....
Cheers Timbo

Cheers & thanks fellas Yep there's no denying Astons are some of the most beautiful cars ever made... They're over priced but damn if I had the ... There'd be more than 1 in my over-sized garage 
Unfortunately my iPhone 3 has given up the ghost on it's camera... Just doesn't work so I can't take pics of the engine bay  sorry Tezza.
Timbo I've got so many builds on the bench right now it ain't funny  Starting off with 2 Lambos ( Aventador & Gallardo, both painted, 1 polished & 1 waiting for clear coating ) 2 R8s, coupe & 'vert... Merc SLS awaiting clear coats... Also got a 2010 Camaro & 06 'Vette, both are gunna be theme cars for my best mate. They're gunna be done in Parramatta Eels livery, with special ordered custom decals!  Not to mention I've been working on his daily driver, Mitsubishi Colt ralliart... Converting it from stock... Lots of work there  Didn't even know Fujimi made a kit of the Colt til I was browsing a Japanese model site & found it by chance  He's gunna be stoked! Hoping to get all 3 done by his B'day... New Years Day  It's a heck of alot to do for the tightarse bugger but he's got something I want... A signed & Framed St.George Dragons 2010 Premiership Jersey...! I figure 3 built models for a $1500 framed jersey is a pretty fair trade 
I've been taking WIP pics on my real camera so when I get a chance to use a friend's PC or my sister's I'll download 'em all to my photobucket site so I'll be able to share 'em all here 
Cheers Cliffo 

Very clean build of a clean looking car. Nice work.

what's all the little blank squares are they photos the did not load up,

Very sweet & tidy build mate, awsome job on the paint job, very well built.

Methinks you spent waaaaay too much time polishing your Aston!

3 models for the dragons................I'd do that too......

Very sweet Cliffo!
I especially love the colour.
