Here's what I'm working on:

The Tamiya morris mini. I had to fix the cowel, which was broken when I opened the box. Have to fix the hole in the floor(my fault, was gonna do something different, but changed my mind) and got it primed.

The Roof decal I printed off and I think it turned out pretty good.

I got the front suspension/engine done as far as I can till I get it attached to the chassis.

I also got the exhaust done:

It's gonna be the silver and the cleared with the wet look clear:

This is my FIRST Tamiya kit ever, and so far I'm really liking it. The only problem so far was the broken cowel, but that was a easy fix.

I will not have many updates over the next 2 weeks, because of exams and stupid stuff, but I'll keep you guys posted.

Thanks for lookin.

I love the roof decal. I just picked up that kit. It will be my first Tamiya kit as well. I plan on doing a jolly roger flag on top and painting the car black and silver.

UPDATE!

Not much, but I got it painted, yes the paint looks outta scale, do I care, nope, I like it, and that's all I got done, gotta get some of the dust out, then one more coat, and then clear

Nice...the roof decal looks great! I built a couple of these Minis; one stock, and the Monte Carlo Rallye version. Great kits, and you'll find Tamiya kits to be well engineered and a delight to build. I'm nearly done with their Renault Alpine Rallye car, just have to find my can of blue paint to finish the body.
