This is the model that won Silver at the 2010 QMHE. This is a box stock Tamiya kit that I painted British racing green and hand-painted the checkerboard roof. I was pretty happy with the outcome except for the camber on the wheels.

Thanks,

F.C

A nice job - maybe you could make a diorama of it drifting through a corner? That would explain the camber on the wheels. Love the checkered roof.

Looks great , well done . The rear wheel fitment can be a common problem with these , lately I've been ignoring the moving wheel part of the brake assembly and gluing it al solid so it fits better . No point having a moving wheel on them anyway Wink
