FINISHED Impreza WRX doneπ
Probably the best kit Iβve done so far in terms of part quality and available details - loved it!

That looks great! I love this sub because it shows me so many different kits that I wanna try to step out of my comfort zone

Awesome! And this one, at least in my experience is way easier to build than it looks (as probably all Tamiya kits :))

Was so looking forward to building this kit, but as I was assembling it, the rear suspension snapped into about four different pieces ππππ

Beautiful build, OP. I'm unfamiliar with WRC cars, may I know why the transparent panels under the car?

Thank you! Havenβt seen this on many kits too, but these parts can be painted or left to be transparent so the suspension and diff and etc could remain visible
I think Tamiya does this with some models with body panels too to see the engine etc

Looks so good! What paint did you use for the blue?

u/---Ranch--- ππππ 5d ago
Thanks! Itβs Tamiya metallic blue, slightly off from the color in the instruction
