You nailed the color. Which one did you use? Car reminds me of the Ruhrpot movie Bang Boum Bang. 🙂

Jorge Aristizabal
Great color choice. Spot on :🙂 🙂

Thanks guys. I used Tamiya TS-21 topped with 1K clear from the rattlecan.

Jennifer Franklin
That is really nice.

Thank you!

Those Tamiya metallics are excellent, I've used them pretty much exclusively for the past 5 years.
Do you use their aerosol cans or spray acrylics yourself? I've had some really impressive results from using various combinations of both👌

@Munkyslut: Well, I said I used TS-21. So that's the rattlecan. 🙂 I sometimes use their acrylics for brush painting, but I much more like their small enamel paints. They are hard to get these days. Best brush paints I know, pigments-wise...

Dominik Weitzer
it looks so good Thomas. Beautiful! And the color is just perfect.

Munkyslut
Hahaha Thomas yeah u sure did except I as usual didn't pay any attention to your obviously complete description…….. I'll put it down to being distracted by the gorgeous finish 😂😂👍

Kyle DeHart
Excellent work!!

István Szücs
Esci made good work during engineering. You made excellent work during the build! Great details, I love it! What paint did you use for the body?

Martin Oostrom
Great job Thomas!
@István, it is Tamiya TS-21 from a spraycan.

Thomas S. autor
Many thanks again.
@István: no, unfortunately, Esci did a horrible job on this kit. Especially when it comes to the chassis and position/ attachment of the wheels. Nothing works without major modifications. I disposed of all the kit parts and replaced them with a selfmade curbside solution. If you want a nice kit with no troubles, stay away from this one!
