I always felt I did a good job of my first mini shell.




The new one is a little so so for me

That Fart-in-a-bath is a stellar job. I also note the nice Tamiya alloys.

Here's my ABC Genetic drift Yaris. There is working lights behind the tint.



...and my Sooby 360 race mini

I love the effect on the roof of your first shell
