Red face Tamiya 1:24 Toyota Corolla WRC (*FINAL PICS*)

Finally a good sunny day to go out and take some photos.
Tamiya’s Corolla WRC is not a complicated model and is a great joy to build.
Just some little of patience when applying the Castrol colour scheme decals but with the help of Microscale products everything is much easier and the final result is great.
Hope you like it.

After your B188, now the Corolla! You're showing us that you master them all! F1, Rally no matter what, Gainsbourg does always a really good job!

Worth waiting for the sun to shine in Portugal! Like the Fly said, send the sun over here too. Last 20mm of rain

Already decided on the next project?

One word- WOW. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that looks like one of the best box stock Corollas I've ever seen. I've got one of those, but have been intimidated by the decals. I've done one other race subject with a brilliant color scheme and it took 8 hours to apply and blend the surrounding color with an airbrush.

If you don't mind, may I save your pics and use them for my reference? I haven't really looked for reference images on that car. I plan on saving it to disk and popping it in the kit's box.
