Nice work on the review, and its great to see this kit get reissues, I wasnt alive yet when it first got issued, and its been I think a rare kit for a long time, will be getting this one for sure.
Progress has been made, starting off with some primer, of the pink kind And some paint, decanted Tamiya Bright Red and shot it through the A/B Will be ending it there, I have since ( last week sometime) finished up 95% of the chassis, but no photo's yet.
The Volvo came from a friend that lives in another state, he found it at a LHS And the wife brought home the kitten, for some reason we needed a second cat.
Getting started on the M3 E30 BMW kit from Beemax Models, I will be using the Detail Up Set ( well most of it) I am doing this as a combo old new BMW DTM build, but will focus on the old for this thread. I put the roll cage together already.
Ahh, a parts panel , now I understand what you are talking about, interesting idea. Once I started using Tamiya's Pink Primer for red, I cant go back to using white , nope, notta, cant do it.
