Miniature Vertex Ridge S15 from Aoshima in 1/24 scale

The Nissan S15 Silvia is synonymous with classic Japanese tuning and clean, purposeful styling. Aoshima recreates that character in a compact 1/24 model of the Vertex Ridge variant, providing a faithful small-scale version for modelling fans.

Faithful shapes and tuner-specific parts

This kit reproduces the Vertex Ridge components with close attention to proportion. The body kit's sharper contours and sporty add-ons are modelled to reflect the vehicle's aftermarket profile, supplying parts that mirror the real car's distinct look.

Challenging but rewarding build

The kit offers worthwhile complexity for hobbyists who enjoy fine assembly. Accurate fit of bumpers, skirts and spoilers is important, so careful dry-fitting and trimming improve the end result and teach useful modelling techniques.

Display-ready once detailed and painted

After painting and finishing, the model presents well on a shelf and complements collections focused on JDM performance cars. Its compact footprint makes it a convenient showcase piece.

Is this kit suitable for beginners?

The kit is better suited to modellers with some experience. Beginners can attempt it but should expect to spend time on trimming and fitting smaller parts.

What paints work best for this model?

Enamel or acrylic model paints both work well. Use a primer first for even coverage and consider clear lacquer to protect decals and finish.

Can I swap wheels or tyres from other 1/24 kits?

Yes, many 1/24 wheels are interchangeable if you check axle and hub dimensions. Minor modifications may be needed for a perfect fit.

Do instructions include painting guides?

Aoshima typically provides basic painting references in the instruction sheet. For custom liveries you may want additional reference photos or decal resources.
