Well it’s finished, haven’t shot real good phots yet and still trying to figure out how to set up a display, the lat pic is one idea. We have bad weather moving in Tuesday through Wednesday so I’m not sure when I can set up for a photo shoot…meanwhile here are some teasers :). The body is just sitting on the chassis, I tried to get it down over the front but was afraid that I would break something or never get it off again. It was meat to have the front clip installed after the rear was on the chassis, but I glued it all together
While messing around with it I went over the instructions again and Tamiya recommended using a hot damp cloth to hold over the decals and the wrinkles would flatten. SO I figured what the heck. I use a soft paper towel at first but it wanted to stick to the decal. Next I tried one of those microfiber cloths for cleaning glasses and it worked great. I wish I had know while I was applying the decals yesterday. I dont use a decal solvent except at the very bottom where the decal meets the rocker panel. Worked ok. I also found in my stash a bottle of Tamiya “Mark Fit” which is their decal solvent. The Porsche badge fell off so I tried it and WOW…I’m sold but it’s really expensive and hard to get here…I think
Anyway, here are the teaser photos
And finally the one idea of a display set-up .. but i dont know yet
