Newbie with interest
Hi, I am new to this forum. This forum is HUGE! and of course the best one about automotive modeling that I know. Good job!
Let me introduce myself. I have been into R/C cars for a bit over a year. Painting (on the inside) and decaling was the most fun part of this hobby. Now I want to get into modeling after seeing so many wonderful jobs you have here. I have little experience painting on the outside. I painted a few wings, rearview mirrors and wheels on 1/10 size, but I can't get the shine you are getting. I read the FAQ twice and I have most of the items necessary to begin with my project. I will probably use Tamiya's Porsche 911 flatnose as a guinea pig since it is the easiest one to do out of the 5 kits I bought yesterday. Is there anything I should know besides the things already mentioned on the FAQ about this kit? Suggestions and comments are appreciated.

Welcome to the forum!
interesting choice you made.  old Tamiya's decal color is little weak so sometimes deep body color (like Peugeot you've got) will see through it. if you would be displeased it, put them upon general purpose white decal. hope you to show us your works soon, good luck!

Welcome to AF.
About the painting, just remember what you read in the FAQ and try it, it's like teaching somone how to swim by showing them pictures, but they won't learn unless they're in the water, get what I'm saying? Hope to see your models
