A kick up the RC. Wild Willy2 Tamiya 1/10 RFI


Recommended Posts

Good afternoon I trust you're all having a splendid weekend. Here is the RFI for my Wild Will 2 that I completed last year. He has got a little knocked about here and there as I did quite a bit of scooting around during the summer months but it all part of the charm.

Here is the WIP.

 

Here are the shots. I hope you enjoy them and any comments are welcome.

And there you go. I wanted to catch the charm of what I had my heart set on back in the 80s. I think I managed it.

You can just have these flat coated but I really wanted something more. I hope you like what I came up with.

 

Take care and as always. Happy Modelling.

 

Johnny.

We don’t see one of those on here every day - brilliant. Love the driver figure too.

Thanks. I’ve been waiting over 30 years to paint that little fella. 😍

Thanks G! I never did get a video. Hard to drive him around and take video at the same time. 😩

Very nice, I remember drooling over these in Beaties in the 1980s.

Funny they call it Wild Willy, but from the radiator it seems to be a Ford Mutt.

Me too. I’m pretty sure Tamiya has a very broad brush to paint with. 😀

Well that's different. I'm surprised it didn't get 'weathered' to pieces. 😄

Thanks. The scratches and knocked add to the “look” 🤪
