Just completed my Tamiya Aston Martin.

Particulars:

Exterior: Scalefinishes.com Morning Frost White (Pearl)

Interior: Floquil Tuscan, thinned and airbrushed.

 

The rest is built right out of the box. It sits right it looks right. I cannot wait to see what else Tamiya comes up with for more AM cars.

There are a few more at MY FOTKI, ASTON MARTIN

Since Minnesota is having technical difficulties with the sun, those outdoor pictures will have to wait.

Thanks for looking.

Hi Guys

Tamiya have made a superb job of the Aston kit and

Chris has made an excellent model from it, so all credit to him.

Being an English modeller I must admit I

was a bit diappointed that the kit was only

supplied with left hand drive. It is a British

car after all! Maybe one day I will win the British or Euro lottery

and buy myself a 1 to 1 scale. AM....Dream on!!!!

I think many car kit manufacturers miss a trick

by not offering right hand and left hand drive options in their kits.

Engine bays are so stuffed these days that you

cannot see the steering column under the hood

so it would be feasable.

Is there an after market manufacturer out there reading this?
