Zippi Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) I finished this one up yesterday but didn't get it cleaned up until this morning. It was primed with Tamiya White Surface Primer then sprayed with Tamiya TS-30 Silver Leaf, and finally airbrushed with Tamiya X-23 Clear Blue. Wet sanding/waxing to round it out. This build is pretty much box stock except the plug wires and Accel coil. I liked the wheels & tires that came with the kit so they stayed. Except for having to re-paint the body due to my mistake it was a very nice build. I really enjoyed this one.
