Tamiya S600 AMG Cpefastdupree 10-04-2009, 08:55 PM I am starting this kit because I just got Hobby Design Photo Etch parts to help with the look. Don't know what color to make it. Maybe Dark Blue? http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/DSC02373.jpg http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/DSC02115.jpg http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/DSC02116.jpg http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/5Cars.jpg fastdupree 10-07-2009, 09:07 PM Here is the start. http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/amgc1.jpg The set-up. http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/amgc3.jpg Did a little sanding out the mold lines. Don't know if it should be painted Dark Grey or Dark Blue. Once it's primed, I will figure something. What color do you think would be nice? http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/amgc5.jpg I'm not crazy over kit wheels so I decided to take Fujimi AMG wheels, cut and put them in Pegasus rims as I did on my black E55 I built awhile back. http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/5Cars.jpg Twowheelsrule 10-07-2009, 10:03 PM I like how in several of your kits you have cut the wheels to improve them. I have so many rims that just need to be bigger so, I need to try what you are doing. Mark fastdupree 10-13-2009, 06:40 PM Here are the wheels. I did my own AMG style wheels for this car. I may take the original wheels and put them in sleeves but for now I will use this style. http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/DSC02338.jpg The wheels http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/DSC02508.jpg I think I like the look of wheels with this car. http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/5Cars.jpg bri g 10-13-2009, 10:46 PM awesome job on the wheels, the stock tamiya amg wheels do look a bit tiny under the big s600 body. you have a lot of projects going on at the same time and I love all of them! fastdupree 10-14-2009, 10:26 PM awesome job on the wheels, the stock tamiya amg wheels do look a bit tiny under the big s600 body. you have a lot of projects going on at the same time and I love all of them!

Than TS-13 Clearcoat. I like this color more than I thought I would. http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee34/fastdupree/5Cars.jpg tpliquid 11-02-2009, 02:31 PM rear wheels need more lip. looks like a great build so far Uninen 11-16-2009, 11:27 AM Very nice "silver arrow"!
