Tamiya Avante 2011 8 years 8 months ago #34832

Dream come true for me! Always wanted one since the age of about 12 and at 39 years old, I completed the build today. Only thing left to do is to install electronics but shes so stunning ill give her a run once or twice and then on the shelf she'll go. Build was by far my most enjoyable and the quality of the parts really is second to none. Question is, do I stick the decals on? Honestly guys, looking at it the way it is, its so elegant. Enjoy the pics.

I hear what you're saying, and it doesn't help that the decals are a bit on the lame side. "Being Nuts is Neat" is quite a bad as the Terra Conqueror's grammatically odd "Go'en for Broke" though :whistle:

I'd be tempted to put the pair of black faux ductwork opening decals + the window borders on, as those at least are "functional".



Nice car BTW, I would have like to see some build pics as it's been a long time since I've had my paws on one of these.

:y: Always so nice. The blue box art is very pretty. Desapointed that my bodies are metalic green and aloy colored.

It could be worse if Tamiya decided to add one of these to a kit decal sheet :silly:



scored this sheet a week ago :laugh:

Very nice Avante and build pictures.
Decals or not... I agree the body looks stunning as it is now, but I think a few decals could highlight it even more :)
