You build RC cars too? that's one expensive hobby, I had a Tamiya Bigwig years ago. Strange those blades look very plain in the pic but I lined them a fair bit, think i'll give them another once over :) Nice tip i’m gonna have a hunt for that stuff now!

Glad i'm not the only one who builds in the order they want. Originally I was worried i'd put something together wrong or forget to add something but it usually turns out ok :) it's nice to get something complete in front of you, especially with MGs where you're building inner frame for what feels like forever!

Love it! ^ ^ I usually build what I want to build first. Either from the legs up or from the body then extending out. Very sharp and clean masking. Love it! ^ ^
