I think Camel PS-19 may be too yellow for Box Art RC10
Neither look exactly like the box art colour

I was thinking of using Pactra's firey orange. It's metallic and might give a sparkly box art look.

Tower uses the same picture for their PS19 listing, it definitely looks different from the tamiya color chart. The listing for the lacquer version, TS-34, looks more like the color chart, so maybe it's the lighting either way? Hard to say unless you can see it in person. I have Parma Faskolor orange, I'll have to check it out soon.THE H.P FREAK wrote:SteveK wrote:Looks pretty close.jwscab wrote:Tamiya camel yellow is really really close if not spot on for the boxart.

HI!... It looks a lot different on the can and Tamiya paints usually match up with the can cap 99%.
Tamiya PS-19
What about :
Tamiya PS-7?

HI!... Does anyone have either of these two colours at home? Can someone see which colour is closer to the RC-10 orange?

I haven't taken a good look, but the Associated script, and part # are not molded in the rear of the driver.

No "tag" so to speak on the rear. Thickness is more than .020, .030 I'm guessing? I don't have an original to compare this one tomarlo wrote:I haven't taken a good look, but the Associated script, and part # are not molded in the rear of the driver.

Been keeping an eye on the parts list for the 'classic' kit on Tower Hobbies site & there's a fair few interesting parts that have been added... black chassis parts, wide front arms (think these have always been available?) CE style shock tower & conversion kits for fitting different (presumably 2.2" Dia) wheels etc etc. Right now it can't be a better time to get out there & run/race your RC10 with all these spares available to us!

Anyone got a black chassis yet? They appear to have a more matte type finish compared to the original black chassis...I haven't seen the nose or motor plate yet in person but have seen a chassis or two. NOTE THIS IS NOT A DIG AT AE JUST WONDERING IF ANYONE NOTICED THE SAME.

The can lids don't, but the actual Camel Yellow paint color looks 96%, or better, to the model in the pic...SnoopMaxx wrote:Hmm ??

I just used the camel yellow on mine a few weeks ago and it is pretty damn close...
