Tamiya Wild One

Post by Tobbe70 »

Hi all :)

This is my Wild One that I recently finished and I didn´t want to go boxart since there are so many nice ones out there. I chose a simple white, black cage and the damperparts are red as on the sprue. Had to repair the chassis since it had quite a few holes in it but it came out ok. Alu-rims (RR / FAV) and a repro-shell and I look forward to the next summer to try it out.
Thx for looking

I really like the black cage, I might repaint mine like that after seeing the black it looks much better than my orange

That's a pretty one! I always wanted a Wild One to add to my Tamiya lineup. Nice pics too by the way. You obviously know what you're doing with a camera as well as the RC stuff. :) When I get my cars ready for quality pics like that, I hope to set up a mini-studio and shoot them with a sweet 50mm portrait lens I've been dying to use.
