New Racing Decals

[Deleted]

Consider this my public service to this group  I'll try to keep everyone abreast of the new decal livery releases.


In August of 2017 Studio27/Tabu Graphics focused on liveries for the newly reissued Hasegawa XJ-S TWR kit.


Tabu did the livery sheet for the 1984 Guia Race of Macau (or Macau Gear Race as the awful English translation says) JPS Sponsored car.



Studio27 proper has three sheets coming out, one of which hasn't quite made it in time for the end of August.  The two liveries that are out are 

1982 RAC Turist Trophy (ETCC)


1983 Grand Prix of Brno (ETCC)


*It should be noted to accurately make either of the Motul liveries you will need to substitute in some BBS Racing Wheels (like the kind in the Tamiya BMW 635 Gr. A kit) as the Speedline wheels that come in the kit didn't come into effect until the 1984 season*

Do you have a source for Tabu decals? I like the JPS livery.

Spot Model carries Tabu decals as well but I don't see the JPS sheet. They do have the Studio27 sheets however.

The last of the August Studio27 decals are in, which had this new sheet for the Hase XJ-S TWR representing the WEC 1984 500km of Donington.

For the 1st half of September (Studio 27 releases two batches of decals/P.E./transkits per month) S27 is gracing us with a new C/F decal sheet and a new livery sheet.

I find this livery for the new Fujimi 911 Carrera 2.1 Turbo to be interesting from the point of view that Fujimi announced last month that they would be doing this exact car as the follow up the Anime Circuit Wolf kit that introduced their newly tooled 2.1. But S27 will have this decal sheet out by mid-September giving it almost a full two months to sell before the Fujimi kit drops in November.

Studio27 is continuing it's line of Carbon Fiber decal sheets for Tamiya's Group C cars. After the TS-020 sheet mentioned before they have proceeded to do a sheet for the Charge Mazda 787B, Silk Cut Jaguar XJR-9LM, and the upcoming release in March will be for the Sauber Benz C9s. They have also been reissuing their P/E Detail Up Sets for each of those kits as the decals have been released.

Next up in the new Carbon Fiber front is a massive three sheet set for the new Tamiya Ferrari F1 car.
