1/12 Tamiya Datsun 240Z East Africa (battle damage)

I wanted to try another route this time. I found images of the damaged car in a japanese magazine and fell in love with it and tried to replicate the damaged look.

I'm very happy but the images are not that good, I really need to build me one of those "fotobooth" (?)

Here's a little build report..onl in german but maybe you like the images

Here's the model and I hope you like it

Amazing! With the right background you could easily past this off for real.
