"All I have built are Revell kits and I got no complaints.For the price there great kits."

Thats because you've never built a Tamiya....... a person who has never wanted electricity won complain about live without it.

I need help on interior color choices. Can you guys give suggestions between these:
1) black/black
2) black/cream( light flesh color )
3) black/dark gray

Thanks for your input. -Walter

Smile Looks like I'm gonna actually finish a kit!

Hey guys, I got some more progress today. I just need to install the brakes, tail lights, paint some bits of the interior, and sand/ polish the body. Then finally take care of the black stuff around the body trim. Looks like I'm actually gonna finish a kit- I'm kinda surprised cause I don't get anything done. Here's some pictures. I had to scratchbuild the console shifter and the F1 shifter paddles on the steering wheel ( the shifter is still white ).

Thanks Vric. I also have the 2 versions of the Tamiya 360 Modenas. They cost double the Revell version and I've had them for over a year now. The Revell has 1/2 the parts at 1/2 the price at 1/2 the time to build and that = more kits finished. <--THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO ME FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE SEEN MY PAST PROJECTS.

Oh well, I'm trying to not jump from one kit to another so much.

Almost done!

Got to working on this one again. I may finish tonight or tomorrow. Only the black trim around windscreen and the decals left to do. Epoxied the wheels and brakes to have camber/toe settings look right. The Revell method of mounting wheels and tires really sucks. I'll post pics soon.
