  1. Sorry… forgot about a wash for a dark red color as well. Thanks again all!
  2. How about a wash for black. the truck has black fenders and black frame. I have Vallejo black wash... wasn't sure if that would work. Thanks
  3. Thanks all - One other question, if this was a pre-painted body does it need to be painted again, or can I just weather over the factory paint? Thanks!
  4. Hello everyone. I was wondering if anyone might be able to tell me what color wash or other weathering technique might be good for a bright yellow color similar to the original color of the lunch box on a hard plastic body? Thanks!
  5. Probably TS-1 if I want a spray can?
  6. I have seen on RC Everyday he sprays a primer down and very gently wet sands it... looks good... just don't know what the heck he is using for the primer phase. I'll also look into the rock sale hair spray method. Thanks!
  7. Hello - I have been seeing some videos on youtube showing some guys creating rust effects or patina (RC Everyday on youtube is one) on their cars. Looks like they are using a rust or red colored primer and then sanding down some of the paint that is over the top of it. I have looked for a rust colored primer but didn't see anything out there online. Does anyone know if there is one... or would it be a red primer? Thanks!
  8. I'll give it a whirl... thanks!
  9. Hello - I have a set of wheels that I just painted black. I wanted to do a wash or something to make them look more realistic... or weathered. Does anyone know what wash color you would use on black paint. The paint I used is Tamiya Black.
  10. This shows 13mm for the 20T. https://www.ebay.com/itm/393179771014 Thanks!
  11. AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! I just measured with an old fashion ruler and get 13mm for the 20T
  12. Ugh!! so typo. The 21T measures 16mm. thanks!
  13. So... when I got a measurement of 13mm for the 21T it was with a friends digital calipers. I just measured it with my new non-digital calipers and got a measurement of 17mm. The 16T that came with the kit is 13mm. Sorry for the wrong information. thanks!
  14. I'm wondering if the pinion gear that came with the kit are maybe a proprietary size??
  15. The 16T does match perfectly. I wanted to get a metal gear... can't seem to find one. Might just have to go with this.... https://www.amainhobbies.com/tamiya-mod-.6-av-pinion-gear-set-20t-21t-tam50356/p48184 Thanks!
  16. Oh yeah... one other thing. For the Citroen... should I install the oil dampers I bought from Yeah Racing or stick with the dampers that came with the kit... was thinking based on some of the pics in this thread the actual cars looked kind of loose so just wanted to know your thoughts. thanks!
  17. I was about to install the Yeah Racing 20T pinion gear when I noticed that it looks smaller than what is in the manual. Not sure if it is ok to install or not. I have uploaded a pic. Any help would be awesome! Thanks!
  18. Hello everyone - I am interested in the Alpine A110 Jagermeister 1973 M-06 and was wondering just out of curiosity if anyone knew what paint is used for the orange color in the pics on the internet? I find it pretty cool! thanks!
  19. What about foam for the tires? I see it didn't come with any. Thanks!
  20. Hey guys - Just got to the part in the build where I need to make the decision to build the chassis lower or go higher. What do you guys think? Higher seems like it might be more fun... lower might perform better??? Didn't know the pros and cons of each. If you can let me know what you think that would be great!. thanks!
