Volvo 850
RuniR

Thanks for the comments. Crash Cramer: my 1:1 850 isn't worth taking pictures of. It's a blue 1996 estate with a dull 10 valve engine. But keeps on riding. Over 360000 km now.

And it was called yellow - hpi body on m-02 chassis

Thanks guys. Backing it was probably better, its a bit translucent as well. Skottoman: your RSR looks great! A long way to go for me.

About the tape. I ordered the kyosho micron line at hobbycart.com Never ordered there before, but looked reliable. Let you know when I got it. Or not...

This one is great! Lot's of inspiration for my builds. Thanks.

Custom ford f150

The color I used is tamiya AS-8, with a clear topcoat. Yes I did shorten te shaft. It's an 5mm alloy TA-01 shaft from GPM. Held together with a tight flexible tube. Gives enough friction to deal with the torque on the axle.

Very nice car and interior. I like the low angle shots. Did you get the Tamiya version with the 251mm wheelbase? Looking forward to see it next to this one.

Tamiya wide body capri

Looks cool indeed. Haven't seen a finished 1/10 yet. But seeing this picture I think I am going to buy one and put it on an old TT-01.

No one knows this car better than me.

Interesting scientific approach. There are indeed some imperfections in the Tamiya designs. I’m also a designer and due to evolutionary processes it is often hard to explain all the choices made in a design. Good to try to improve, even on the old Tamiya models. At this chassis you might have to add the triangular A10 part to your testmodel. I think it prevents the chassis from breaking at the red spots.
Do you think it is possible to structural test the complete model? With all the parts, weight, etc.?

As you say.... perfect. Amazing build.
Only one thing missing: the driver. Do you have one?

Morning run - xanavi gt-r (r34)

Super wheel - body combi. Decals look fine. Those big body wrapping decals can be frustrating. I use the same recipe: soap, water, hair dryer on curves and ……… lots of patience.

Flea bay find. new old stock,never fitted with radio or run
junkmunki

Great find! Take good care of this special car. I wonder how many more of these are hidden in attics around the world. What about a worldwide Tamiya house to house search?

Top scale work!. Read some of your building stories this evening. Like the way you describe your builds. Looking forward to the next step on this one.

Thanks for your comments! We will try to make some more action pics soon.


Kontemax: Many thanks for your advice on the painting. I guess the key is in using black to cover the orange and silver to go to white again. I’m sure this will help in future projects.


MAD-BEE : Sure has a high fun/costs factor. Saw your MadFighter. I like it. Black wheels look good on this car. The motor we use is a LRP generation X. Had this for while, but can’t find the exact specs. Brushed and I think it has 16x2turns.

Old school rc art
RuniR

He guys, don’t be distracted by the blond hair. I could say it matches the golden shocks quit well and you might see some more resemblance between the woman and the car and therefore adds a nice extra layer to the picture...… But I think it is just a trick to collect some votes.

Build #1 mp4-5b work in progress - f103 d-drive moncoque!

Chassis looks very nice. I am very curious about the driver. Is it going to steer?

That's pretty cool already. Keep us posted when making progress!

Time to get my sand scorcher off the shelf again!!!
MAD-BEE

Nice shots! In the end this is what they are made for. I must say this type of pictures look better than my clean Holliday Buggy pics.

Back to the big dilemma: to run or not to run…..

The last picture is awesome, geweldig!

Humvee iii (1st tour)

Great result! Amazing how all the scale details you’ve added look so natural. One of my favourites!
