Ebay. There's always dozens, or hobbylink Japan, oe ToyEast. All easy and fairly cheap to get stuff over from.

nice!!!!

Have done a little more progress on my 2005 Subaru WRC and rally mechanics. They are still shiny as I coated them to protect the decals. Will fix that later.

Tamiya spray paint and decals don't mix.

Have added metal photo etch parts such as bonnet pins, front grille, radiator, intercooler and brake discs. Makes it look alot better.

OMG so shiny! · by **Dell'Orto** » Thu Jun 26, 2008 8:59 pm

Thanks!

This is my favorite model. Wish I had the real thing, but I can't so I'll live with this.

No I don't. I think they look cheap and nasty. Even the really well done ones. Of course I'm no pro modeler and don't claim to be. Thats just what I think.

But I have taken my models outside and got a few good shots which make them look kind of real.

Like this one.

I found one of those mean little plastic AE86 notchback model kits in a hobby place in Auckland, im so gonna buy it - opened it up and had a full detailed engine, headers, radiator, exhaust and interior - even had twin cam 16 on the rocker covers! Believe its the 4AGE-U bluetop?

And a cool shot I got of my Nissan R89C LM car.

You would swear when it's finished it's the real thing judging by those photos!
