Tamiya Konghead Project

I didn't want to paint it exactly like the box, so I used a blue anodized aluminum color.  This is a difficult body to mask, and I concentrated all my efforts on the fuel tanks and rear slope and totally forgot to mask the grille so I ended up with a blue grille.  Not terrible, but not right either.  The body has some nice hard plastic metal plated accents which really make it looks nice, and there are extensive stickers as well.  The spring loaded front bumper broke off the very first time I hit something.  The screws which hold it on snapped and cannot be extracted, so it no longer has a bumper.
