2003 Rossi Valencia Model
My latest project. I'm no expert modeler, but these are fun to tackle about once a year.
In case you didn't know about these Tamiya models, all of the parts you see come in gray or white (with the exception of the chrome frame). Therefore, every part has to be painted. One weakness in my assembly is my lack of various silvers. I've got to get to Huntsville and get some more variations. I'm proud of it so far. I'll post pics when the bodywork gets painted and on.
