Double post!

I've had 2 CC01's and both of mine were pre built so I for one would like to see how it goes together.

You're just powering through builds this year!

Full build thread please! I thoroughly enjoyed my CC01 Pajero build, and it would be great to relive the happy memories through watching another CC01 go together. Plus it may serve as a useful resource should any newbie modellers be considering adding a CC01 to their fleet.

Your build should go right here and show us your progress. And we won't complain should you decide to give away your finished CC01 like what Tamiya USA is doing.

I'm looking forward to this build. I have one I'll be starting Wednesday.

Looking very stylish! I think the tribal flames suit the alternative body styling of the 'Cruiser rather well.

[Vrdetailing]

Glad someone likes it as well... I kinda made it up as a went a long with a beer in hand... I have some spektrum decals I may also use..

[Tamiya1/10]

did you masked the windows? or you want the window to have the same colour as the body?

i like the flame you did for the sides. is not overwhelming.

[Vrdetailing]

Most of my cars have black windows so no they are not masked... The kit has window rubber decals... I am making it up as I go along... I did forget to mask the headlights but I will deal with that later...

I may add some silver decals... For the bumpers etc that come in the kit

The mirrors will be orange but not sure on the front grill.

[Tamiya1/10]

thats good, as i noticed you were going about with a beer in hand. I did that before and i ended up painting the windows same as the body color which i did not want. i concluded that drinking and driving done go together and rc painting too.:-D

That's a lot of planning - nice paint job !

[Vrdetailing]

It's a complex body but fun

[Skottoman]

Making it up with beer in hand… Hm… I think I've done that many times as well!!!

Looks good, your style for sure, and the black/orange really will pop!

What are you doing with the wheels?

Cheers,
