Tamiya Volvo 850
Started this one a while back - progress so far:
![]() ![]() ![]() Sadly just a curbside, but underneath there is still plenty of detail ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The material for the carpet was included - texture is nicely in scale too. However as the kit was quite old, the decals weren't great. The main dashboard one for the wood trim was a pain as it broke up, but fortunately this doesn't show due to the wood effect disguising the edges. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Almost there! Just needs a few decals, door handles, mirrors & other minor details added, and it will be done.

Re: Tamiya Volvo 850
Thanks!
![]() Minor update: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() All that is left to be done now to complete it is the number plates, fixing the rear window & light lense (all one piece, and just resting in place in the pics above), fit the rear wiper, and flat & polish the roof spoiler before fixing that permanently. Once those are all sorted out, I'll take some outdoor pics of the finished model.

Re: Tamiya Volvo 850
It's been a while since I've seen one of these built.
This one's a cracking little build I love the paint work on the body, and the attention to detail throughout. |

Re: Tamiya Volvo 850
Many thanks for the kind comments
The numberplates were a pain, as the decals were very brittle, but eventually they came out ok, but a coat of clear enamel was needed to keep them from breaking up if touched. But it's now finished! More pics in the completed section
