That is looking very realistic I have to say.

up on two wheels at last!

typical tamiya, no major drama

 

[Guest]

I like the Tamiya no Dramiya - their kits usually go together with a minimal of fuss...

ive got some fiddly bits to do next so might not be an update for a day or so but the target is to get it finished over the weekend

and finished...........

nice kit as you would expect from Tamiya, had a few problems towards the end......that screen was a bugger to fit, had to resort to ca glue and a few minutes hoping it wasnt going to fog.......the decals were a pain, some of them wrinkled a bit, and i swear some of the piping has a mind of its own!....just couldnt get the front brake pipes to go where i wanted....and the biggest problem was of my own making, had to use a rattlecan so i didnt get the paint finish i wanted

but i still thoroughly enjoyed it, very satsifying indeed
