Nice finish , really nice work so carefull . now it's ready to compete in the rally .
Thanks Javier! Yeah I did my best not to rush this one. I was a bit quick putting the first to stickers on and got a little crease, so I sat back a took my time with the rest. 👍
I love this car! built mine couple of month back, it drives great
Awesome! and it's great to hear they run well. I'm only hearing great reports, so I'm really looking forward to running it. 👍
That is a ripper - great job!
Thanks mate! 👍
Thankyou for showing us, nicely done 👍
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. 👍
I did one a few weeks ago. First time and it wasn't as bad as everyone makes this out to be putting the stickers on. Water and heat gun is the best for the big stickers. The rest of them can be put on with no issues at all, just a ton of them.
Top notch sticker mounting skills !
Thanks mate! 👍
She came out deliciously well! Congrats, buddy, that's what i call a nice work.
Thanks mate. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Should look even better with the cockpit and a few extras I have planned for it. 👍
Great video and extremely helpful 👍 looking amazing 🤩
Glad it was helpful, that's great to hear! Thanks Simon. 👍
That looks spot on mate👌
I learnt some new tricks for putting decals on, thanks for the lesson👍.
I like your body reamer with the diameter scale measurements.
Great video and looking forward to seeing the interior👌🦘🇦🇺
Thanks mate!
Glad it was helpful, might be useful with your upcoming builds.
Oh yeah, that makes life much easier. Back in the day I used to use a drill, it was real hit n miss! 😂
Thanks mate, hoping to have it done this week but I have more ideas so I could take a little longer. 👍
@@RCHobbyShed Your method of decaling is going to be really good for me, I usually snip a small section of the backing paper off then line up the other end and use tape to hold the decal in place then lay it down on the exposed decal and slowly remove the remaining backing etc.
More ideas sounds interesting mate!, it's definitely worth the time and effort👌
@@outbackrcaustralia4895 The way you do it sounds like the same way they say in the manuals. I've seen others do it with great results. I tried it once and gave up lol.
If it turns out right, it may look like the real thing when I make the running video. 👍
@@RCHobbyShed Mate I can't wait to see it!! I think this is the most rewarding hobby I've ever done👌
You did a great job with it Mick! Very nice indeed.
Thanks Jon! It took forever but I'm quite happy with the end result. 👍
Very nice 🤩👊🏻
Thanks Glenn. Now I think I need an 037! 😁👍
Great job Mick, I did it the hard way with plenty of swearing. Have 2 more to build and a mustang shell. I'll be doing it your way from now on. They really do look nice when they are finished, was thinking mine looked boring until it was finished. Thanks for the tips mate ,great video.
Thanks mate! I did it the sweary way for many years too... Who am I kidding, I still swear when I'm doing the stickers 😂
Two more builds, should keep you busy for a while. The Mustang will look awesome!
Oh yeah these don't look much at all until they're finished then they really pop. I think the rally Lancias look awesome. Think I will get the 037 as well. 👍
I would of given up at cutting stickers 🤣😂 credit to you mate awsome work...
I actually did give up, several times 🤣. I cut about half a sheet then have to walk away for a hour or so, it really saps the patience quickly! Thanks Sean! 👍
Cheers Mick. Great attention to detail with those stickers. It’s a lot of work done well 👍🤓🇦🇺
Thanks Paul. I really took my time with this one. Actually I wasn't sure I'd ever finish it 😂👍
Turned out great looking! I am sure it is going to be awesome looking once it has that interior put in!
Thanks Addam. I think so too, should look way more realistic than the tinted windows. 👍
Nice job Mick looks real sweet!😉👍
Thanks mate. Took me a while but I got there in the end. 👍
@@RCHobbyShed 👍
Great work , it looks really good. Lots of decals but not that many big ones, i think the skyline HKS is worse or what do you say?
Thanks mate. Oh yeah, there's lots of small stickers. Yeah I actually think the HKS Skyline is worse, that's like 3 sheets of stickers. Fortunately the Skyline body is a little easier to work with as it doesn't have the flared guards to deal with, but I still think the Skyline is more work. They're very close for pain in the butt factor! 😂👍
Great video and great looking car. I will have to get me one of those OZITO heat guns as I stuffed up the decals on this kit !!!!! Great car to drive though, so not all is lost
Thanks Ian. Any brand will be fine as long as it's adjustable, since you'll have it on a low setting most of the time. The OZITO ones are quite cheap. Good to hear they drive well, I thought they would be a great runner. 👍
Great video Mick, I love the Delta is such a stunning car. Now for the 037? 🤓🤓👍
Thanks Will. Me too mate, they are a cool little beast! Haha, the 037 is on it's way as we speak! 😁👍
Well mate, it came out better than "pretty good" - it's bloody marvelous! Great job with the stickers, Mick, you made it look a lot easier than it is! All the best! :)
PS. comment #3
Thanks mate! I saw your video when you did your stickers, I'm calling you the sticker king! No water or heat just sticking them on, and they turned out awesome! Cheers Mark!
PS. I see it and there's #4 I'll get to next 👍
Great video mate , top work👍
Thanks Christopher! 🙂👍
Oh wow what a great finish mate, and yeah great shout on getting driver and co done too looking forward to that, better than just smoking the windows, who would suggest that!! 😂😂 great episode dude, again! 👌
Thanks mate, glad you like it. Yeah I think the cockpit set should look much better. I think the tinted windows make it look kinda toy like. Tamiya do say to use smoke on the windows but I don't like them telling me what to do.😂🤣👍
@@RCHobbyShed thanks for the reply such great builds and tips and good laugh with it, quality!
No probs at all mate. Glad you like my videos! 🙂👍
Nice Job Indeed there Mick and loved the water slide/soapy method tutorial as was clear and to the point with great camera footage of application ,one of the much better ones that i have seen so thanks heaps for that and im sure many others will think likewise personally never really tried this with rc car decals only with static models but now im not going to be so uneasy in doing so thanks to this video mate cheers and has'nt this come up a treat , will be great to see it going through some rally stages now totally awesome finish Mick :-)
Thanks Andrew! This has been the method I been using for the last few years. I've tried doing it without water a few times since and had a bad time of it lol. I'm pretty happy with the results on this one, it's not perfect but good enough for me. After the cockpit is done I'll get it out for a rip. Thanks mate! 👍
Great Job looks fantastic!👍🏻 I really like your channel! Been watching for a while now. Love the way you sometimes do your own mods etc. Like the wheelie bar you made for the blitzer Beetle 👍🏻
Thanks Peter! Glad you're enjoying my videos. Oh yeah sometimes I prefer just to make something rather than buy, or in cases like the Blitzer Beetle wheelie bar, they don't seem to exist to be able to buy them. 👍
The car looks really cool, how is the steering, I bet it can turn on a dime-bag! (sorry, I'm not so good with Pantera jokes)
And back to video comment, I gotta say I admire you guys who can do those stickers, I haven't got the patience for it... Still looking forward to watching the interior video also, keep them coming!
Thanks mate. Haha, I haven't driven it yet but I'm sure you're right. That was a good one, I have nothing to come back with this time 🤣.
I guess when it comes to stickers, all we need is just a little patience. I know, wrong band but I tried! 😂
Hoping to get the cockpit done this week, I also have a couple of more things in mind to make it look a bit more realistic. 👍
@@RCHobbyShed Well mate, it came out better than "pretty good" - it's bloody marvelous! Great job with the stickers, Mick, you made it look a lot easier than it is! All the best! :)
Comment #4!!!!
@@MarkBryanRC Thanks Mark. 🙂👍
Looks great, you did a nice job. It looks so much quicker and easier when someone else does it. :)
Thanks! Oh yeah, sure does! 👍
Your talents are clearly well beyond mine. I made a few mistakes on the decals.. Some small creases. The grill I just left silver as there's no way i could get that right. Finally thoses red decals for the grill... Nope 😂
Thanks mate! Oh trust me, I make plenty of mistakes. Even the first to stickers on this one, I rushed them and got a crease. This one actually took me a couple of days to put the stickers on, I tend to just walk away before they really piss me off and come back later 😂. I have to admit, those decals on the grill made me want to snap the grill in half! 🤣
I saw your post on Tamiya Legends regarding the heat guns. You can use a hairdryer just fine. I use the heat gun because it heats up much quicker compared to a hairdryer, which is better when you turn it on and off every minute or so. I also find heat guns don't blow so much air as they're not designed to give your golden, flowing locks a nice blow wave 🤣. So because of the reduced air flow, your stickers don't blow around so much when trying to apply them. All you really need to look for in a heat gun it one that has fully adjustable. I use mine almost on the lowest setting, basically enough so it feels hot on your hand but without burning you quickly. They also come in handy for softening Styrene and stuff if you want to make custom body parts things and need to bend plastics. Hope this helps! 👍
@@RCHobbyShed oh sweet.. Thanks Mick. I've ordered a basic heat gun that's adjustable... I used a lighter on my xv-01.. How i got aways with it is pure luck. I'm getting more confident with decals now. Get the right tools for the job and all that 😂👌
@@markgreenhalgh8344 Good stuff mate, you'll never look back now. A lighter! Now that's gotta take skill! I'd have a fire if I tried that 😂. You'll be fine mate, it's all practice... and swearing. 😁👍
Have you seen the tamiya kit that comes with the lancia body already finished?? I was wondering what the factory finished body quality would be like?? Love the channel got a sub from me😉👍
I haven't actually seen it, I'm guessing it's one of the XB series. I'm sure it would look great and dare I say it, maybe better than mine 😂. Thanks Andy and welcome aboard! 🙂👍
@@RCHobbyShed no its not an expert built model it's an old kit!! Are you in UK?? There's 1 for sale on ebay now!!
@@RCHobbyShed I've found it if you would like to take a look at it! It's TAMIYA KIT- 58342 JAPAN. it's on the old TT01 chassis. It even has the driver and co- pilot in it!!!
@@andybowyer3602 I see it now, New In Box on RUclips did a review. It does look great, it's discontinued though. I did notice it was lacking some detail on the driver/co-pilot but that's normal for the finished bodies. I was actually happy to see the stickers has some small wrinkles and bubbles, that makes me feel better about mine 😂. Overall it does look really good!
Killerbody also make a finished body too, they look awesome but no driver figures. 👍
@@RCHobbyShed yours is fine! It looks really good the scale is good on that particular model. its one I've always wanted but never gotten around to buying, maybe I'll buy one of the newer reruns they've
Recently released 🤪👍
👊✊💨💨💨
I want to buy an XV01 Now! I have a YD-2S with a JZX100 Body, A TT-02 V8 Audi touring car, and a mini B. I Think the XV01 is like a more rally purpose shorter tt02. I want to buy one after I buy my grasshopper. I love Tamiya.
They're a cool chassis to build. I've not run it yet but I think it will be fun. Sound like you have a few cool cars, awesome! A Grasshopper is always a must have, they're just plain fun. 👍
What colour brand paint# did you use?
I used Tamiya PS-1 White. 👍
