Your builds are always so damn clean. You raise the bar for me every time you post something. This really is a thing of beauty. It is indeed perfect. The end song is quite fitting.

I haven't built a perfect model yet! Maybe some day if I keep watching Chuck's crap! Just kidding😉 Beautiful build James. I don't know how you guys do it. Thanks for the video 😎👍

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thanks Intake, I’ve come close to perfection but never 100% yet. There’s always something I could have done better. I’ll keep trying. Thanks for watching 👍

My favorite WRC driver, Petter Solberg also drove a Subaru. I have a Tamiya kit of his car in my stash.

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

It’s a great kit, engine masking is a pain and so are the decals. But overall it fits like a Tamiya kit for sure. Thanks for watching!
