Ridge Racer 4 Reiko

This item is available from

Reiko was one of those kits that I swear I don’t remember buying. I used acrylic and on her dress and then used a clear pearl coat to give it a shimmering effect. I liked it so much I did the whole base with a layer of the clear coat over the lightning decal paper. I didn’t have access to any of the actual ridge racer cars so I mounted her with a late model RX-7 (which I prefer anyway).. I only wish the Rx-7 were large enough to be comparable in scale but then the base would have to be HUGE.. and I would make the car the focal point as opposed to Reiko.. figure kind of like the cover of Import Tuner Magazine or something.
