Panasonic Toyota F1 model kit

The F1 racing team that I support! Panasonic Toyota Racing Team while being a new team that first appeared in 2002, has achieved commendable results. While it has yet to give any podium finish, I believe it will be the next F1 racing team to shine in the near future, probably next year in Singapore on the 28th September for the first ever night race. Apart from Ferrari, Toyota is the only team to produce the chassis, engine, gearbox, wheel suspension and braking system, that is the whole Formula 1 racer, under 1 roof. Also they had the benefit of Mitsushita or their subsidiary Panasonic as a powerful financial partner for 5 years. More importanltly, it is a Japanese team... Well, only Revell has the license to produce Panasonic Toyota F1 racer model kit. That explain why Tamiya does produce model kit for the Panasoni Toyota 1 racer team. Overall, this model kit is of high quality. Most importantly, the decals are fantastic. Although I used the Aqueous Hobby Off White Paint, I think it still looks good. Off white is perhaps close to milk colour. Presenting to you, the Panasonic Toyota Racing TF 102 model kit !

Aile Strike Gundam

Inspired by the PSP gundam seed game, I decided to assemble a new 1/144 high gradeGundam model kit recently. it is the Aile strike Gundam. I put in a lot of effort painting the model as some of the colours are not given. Well, this is pobably the best model kit that I have ever assmbled and merticulously colored.
