Aoshima 06493 - 1/24 scale Takahashi Keisuke FD3S RX-7 description

The Aoshima 06493 set faithfully models Takahashi Keisuke's FD3S RX-7 seen in Initial D Volume 18. At 1/24 scale, it reproduces the car's profile and key styling cues that appeal to anime model fans and skilled builders.

Construction approach and kit attributes

Parts are produced with a focus on fit and detail, making assembly logical for intermediate hobbyists. The construction reduces trimming and test-fitting, so builders can invest time in paint layers and decal placement to capture the anime look.

Detailing and paint prep

Surface moulding captures the RX-7s character lines and interior hints, creating a good base for panel shading and custom paintwork. The kit provides the accuracy needed for convincing screen-accurate finishes.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/24
  • Dimensions: Approx. 190mm
  • Color Separation: Requires painting
  • Decals: Included
  • Assembly Type: Snap-fit

Aoshima 06493 offers a satisfying build with clear part engineering and fine moulding. It is a rewarding project for fans wanting to replicate Takahashi Keisuke's FD3S RX-7 from Initial D.

Decals are flexible enough for gentle curves, but setting solution and careful positioning help avoid lifting on tight radii.
Acrylics work well for this plastic. Use a primer first and allow proper drying between coats for a clean finish.
Most parts are snap-fit, but thin adhesives can secure small trim pieces or repairs during detailing.
For a thorough paint and decal job expect several evenings to a few weekends, depending on your techniques and drying times.
