Anyone maybee got a double Tamiya or similar 300 kit for sale as I used to be a keen modeler in the past but the local model shops here cant get the 300 Tamiya kit.

 

Cheers John Crisp

 

PS there is a shortage of haggis's running wild in Scotland now.....wonder why

i got one, had it 18 months, so far ive assembed half of the engine, at this rate it will be finished in about 40 years.

 

Sarge, the model shop in Bedworth does it, and i bet the model spot in hinckley can get one for you if you ask.

 

The kit is about a tenner, but the paint and glue will cost you over £20!!!

I already built it for you mac

 

Mike have you got the orig photo , ineed to see what the

strotek kit look like in red b4 i spend the money

Had one of these for AGES now. No time whatsoever to put it together.

 

Best advice is to paint each part first, just pick the first colour on the list, and paint each part that needs it, then 2nd colour etc......

 

Leave it in the moulding backing, paint everything on there. then (when they are dry :mac1: ) cut them out, tidy up the ends and touch up. All parts will look real good.

 

For any large area use an airbrush and spray it.

 

 

I have this model (amongst many others). The underside is painted silver. If you brush painted it, it would look horrid and stripey, but airbrushed it looks awesome.

 

HTH.

Rob.

 

Edit, 1 more thing. Take your time, do not rush it. You will only fook it up and think damn, wish I had made a better job of that :( :(

As that also applies to the life size car,that is why mine has taken a year :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

LOL again like the life size car,you can buy em for peanuts but they cost £££££ when major things fail;)

Can get 'em from here - http://www.modelsinmotion.co.uk

 

I ordered a Z32, RX7, NSX and an R33 from there last year and they arrived in 2 days. Prices seem to have gone up on certain things since I ordered though...

As posted today already..... ;)

I've had the Tamiya 1/24th scale one for about three years now.
