AASBO/TRA Kyoto GT 86: part 4

Yet, another huge milestone in my project.

Silver and black are covered in PS-55 matt paint, rear diffusor and fog lights are painted with black from the outside, most of the window trims are on, and most important - body panels are glued to the body. I still need to trim them and make more realistic by adding some parts to them.

Finally I managed to find some time on my project. Studies are hard, so I can only work on it on weekends. This time I painted the body and 1.5 fenders. Still, I have to spray black and silver with PS-55 and paint rear diffuser and fog lights with black from the outside. Plenty of work to do.

Custom RC body Paint jobs by RDT team member "Drew"

Since the paint job for my GT86 will be done by Andrey "drew", I decided it would be very nice of me to feature some of his works.

Another day spent, rubbing off 3 layers of old paint from my lovely BMW. One of rear arches is now almost ready, thought I made some mistakes during cutting. But I know how to correct them. Black color will hide everything)

Arch came out a bit wider than I thought it would. Who knew I'd ever need a spacer for a +12 wheel.

Picture starts to clear up

Boom. Here comes the new project. This should be the most awesome one I have by this moment.
Tamiya Gt86 body + custom fenders (previously trashed Yokomo BMW) and a custom paint job.

Latest video update: 09 September

Here is the lates video, filmed during the weekend training. This is not in the best quality and somehow does not include some great shots, but still show some skills. We now have 3 drivers in our drift trains and we try hard to go up to 4. Thats a huge progress for all of us.

Here you go. Don't expect more than 480p :-(
