Complete newbie

Post by GazC21 »

Hey all, I’m completely new to modelling but have decided to take up 1:24 scale cars as a new hobbey so any advice is welcome.
I recently completed the tamiya nissan gtr vpec (r33) but it wasn’t the best but is anyone’s first attempt?
Interated in japanese and rally cars to begin with and after watching youtube videos i think i am going to do the tamiya subaru imprezza wrc 99 model.

Hello.
I suggest you watch Paul’s Subaru Car Build series and then follow along as best as possible.
If you pop up a build thread, post some pictures and comments, we can help you along the way

I have already watched the series which is why i want to do that car next. Will hopefully do a build thread on it but i want to invest in an airbrush first as my skyline isn’t great using spray cans and brushes
