Lysus' 1/24 Toyota HiAce Delivery Truck -ALL TAMIYA BUILD- LATE

[Lysus]

Hey hey, better late than never...well maybe not three months late, but whatevs. Bit of a challenge to limit myself to single company of products, but it was fun and forced me to think a little. Not entirely satisfied with the result, there were some fit issues that my build order caused (the roof) and the cement ate away some of the window trim black...and I spilled some Tamiya Cement on the chassis...

...and Tamiya Decals...ugh...Tamiya Decals!

But whaddya gonna do except learn from it for next time, right? Anyway, some shots and then the final product tally at the end.

This is the best build I have ever seen. It's great, it's awesome, it's Tamiya, it's a visual representation of where I spend all of my money. Well done!

Now do an Eduard with spinners, flame paint job, big sin horns and a rabbit throwing PE carrots out the window.

Heh, thanks. If we ever do a MAKE IT LOUD SiG I'll get right on that

I am surprised Tamiya doesn't make a toothbrush...and toilet paper for that matter

If they made decals large enough you could use them for TP. They are velvety and fall to bits in water.
