Fantastic build Paul. I've just recently discovered the Youtube channel and the superb tutorial videos.
I have a couple of questions:-
Do you not do the panel line highlights using Tamiya panel line paint? I think grey would be better than black which looks too unrealistic on some models.
Do you know a source for some special decals like rally plates and No's for UK rallies like the Loyds Bowmaker Scottish Rally? I would like to build the TA64 Celica of Bjorn Waldegard in 1985.
What camera do you use to take your photos, they are top notch?

Hi

Im not keen on the look the panel washes give they look too in your face for my liking. :crazy:

For decals try Hiroboy, spotmodel and ebay :banana:

My Camera is a Panasonic Lumix Bridge camera :cheers2:
