Roncla Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 This is my take on Monograms' Trantula. I reshaped the nose, changed the headers and put on a pair of Pegasus Hobbies funny car front rims. It was airbrushed Duplicolor Mirage purple/ green.

MitchP Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Is this the 40 year old Tarantula dragster? I build a T.V. Tommy Ivo and a Tarantula as a kid. T.V.'s had orange molding and the Tarantula had puke green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roncla Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 Is this the 40 year old Tarantula dragster? I build a T.V. Tommy Ivo and a Tarantula as a kid. T.V.'s had orange molding and the Tarantula had puke green. It was built from a 2010 reissue of the original Tarantula kit. It was molded in green plastic. I used body filler to reshape the nose to look like a 60s dragster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shardik Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Hey, that actually looks pretty cool without all the thematic garbage tacked on. Nice reinterpretation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
