Funkychiken Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 This build was not the usual Tamiya perfection, but it was enjoyable, and turns out into a fantasic completed build. the main 2 problems I had were fitting the engine cover - was a little twisted. and also the final fitting of the body onto the chassis, it sits too low at the back, and there were some lugs that clashed with the body. Overall, really pleased! colour is Alclad II Cobalt Blue over Bright silve base and finished with Zero 2K and sanded/polished. Interior is with Zero paints...

Pete75 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Excellent work, sir. Enjoyed going through your WIP thread so much I had to make an impulse purchase - at £14 it would be crazy not to! And I have the colour scheme all mapped out - I love it when a plan comes together...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logezzzzzbro Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Any tips on getting the body onto the chassis? At this stage of my build and it’s so frustrating I want to throw my model against the wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
