Good progress. I've got this kit to build and I think painting the red section would be better to cover the bonnet louvres than trying to use the decals. Proportions look ok though.

looking good so far.

you going to try and get all these rally cars done before the new year?

your modeling bench must be overflowing

Excellent job as usual ! What do you think of the kit itself ? Fitment, plastic quality...? I've read some bad comments but I suspect they come from people who only incidentally built 1 or 2 Tamiya kits in their entire life... :-/

Built a TA64 kit from this brand and sadly what they say was true, it has some problems like high mould lines, moulded hood pins on the body, extremly thick decals ..not comparable with tamiya or belkits. but parts do fit quite well and with some efforts a nice finish can be done.

Thanks for your comments!

@chris24: All parts fit very well, and no problems with flash. I didn't start the body yet, but I'll tell you soon.

Update: wheels finished

Decals applied

[stevenoble]

Looks excellent with the decals applied. What's the quality like on the decals? I hope they do a tarmac version of this or maybe someone does the correct wheels and tyres for tarmac...

[hej-hou]

Looking really very good, I like this one. For me is interesting as well the job with decals. I am little bit scare about those big areas on the hood.
to stevenoble: REN has preparing the tarmac optional version for TdC 1984 and RMC as well
