j_jza80 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 It's an intake/exhaust from a spitfire or hurricane engine. I forget which now. It's got the spring etc on it I thought it was something like that. I want some Merlin bits, but sadly many of the bits on the market aren't actually from Merlins, they're from Meteors (a tank engine) and other large aero and military engines.

Guigsy Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Yeah. I got this at an air show. It's got a certificate but it means shit all realy. Lol. It's just a man cave decoration realy. I love tanks so if it's out of a tank it's still cool in my book. The big shell next to it is actually a starter motor used to start early jet engines. Found it in my grandads house after he died Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeiretto Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 I own a couple itasha Supra models, like this one: http://uc.exteenblog.com/kurosawa/images/blog/goods/minicar4.jpg Bought them in Japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jord Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 The Tamiya ones look great, love the volk wheels on them and how the headlights light up. Love the Itasha one above too. I've been trying to find some decent supra models that don't look tacky so this thread is a big help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 The Kyosho Supras are the largest and most detailed diecast models available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 As far as I know, this is the most accurate model you can buy: http://www.jimnohio.com/images/ToyotaSupra-Tamiya24123_93.jpg I've got one, though I'm yet to build it. It's pretty easy to customize too, if you want to go single etc. I also have one of these and haven't got round to building it, it has only been a couple of years! :lol: I also have one still in the box from a few years back :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mull1986 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Here's my attempt from Xmas Ruddy dog ate the spoiler tho. If any of you tamiya model makers need any paint for indicators etc, I have all the paints left over from my model which I paid around £4 each from hobby craft if anyone wants them. Model cost £17, paint cost £50 in all so paints not cheap so pm me if/when you want some paint and we could come to a deal, no clear red tho for rear lights, have that one to my uncle for his Mini Cooper model.

wile e coyote Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Oh I'll check which ones I'm missing as they stopped doing some colours for some reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Check they ain't all dried up. After about a year of non use iv found the tamia paints go very gloppy and you have to thin them down. And if you get it wrong it's like painting with water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev.O Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Not quite a model but I had it made for the top of my wedding cake: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mull1986 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I'll check tonight about the condition of the paints but like I said it was at Xmas so hopefully should be ok. I'll update with the actual list of paints I have left, also have a chrome spray for the exhaust too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
