Post by: getemuphigh on August 05, 2010, 09:46:50 pm

While restoring my 1/10th scale Nitro 4 stroke powered tank and getting around to the paint job while at the same time had stripped down a well used Club 500 bought at the Kirklees Model Boat Club Gala last month and.......... well I had all the paint ready for the tank so the boat got done too.........

Thanks to all for the great comments, I did it as a bit of fun and to see how it would turn out.
Might take it for a run tomorrow at KMBC, see if I can sneak up on the wildlife... ;) ;)
