Past builds - Aoshima Hilux pick up lift up

This was a great build! Aoshima has nice kits!

Honestly all of the chrome looks like garbage and a toy. I would have absolutely not done all chrome at all.

Ditto Model Car Minion on that Chrome. Chrome Tech is closed :( Nice Job on the Toyota!!! I always wished the brought those here!!!

[@samuelvasquez8170]

I went to the chrome tech website and it says he has retired. That’s to bad.

What a fantastic build! I actually have this exact same truck (same colour) in real life! Have just bought the Aoshima model too. what paint colour did you use for the body? the instructions say to use Mr Hobby C72 intermittent blue but this doesn't seem right. That body paint you've used seems far more like the real thing, would really appreciate your guidance! Thanks!

That is Testor's Sapphire Blue metallic. You might have trouble finding it. I sprayed a 300zx kit very similarly in Rustoleum Cobalt Blue metallic.

Nice, video deciding if i should send my kit for chrome treatment or maybe just paint it

[@Toppervision1]

Oh I did that many years ago before they had such great chrome paint. Look into Molotow paint.

[@Jeffsmodelgarage]

That’s a lot of chrome lol wow looks good mike

[@Toppervision1]

lol, yes. This much chrome had to be done at least once. :)

[@thescalemodelcarguychannel8681]

[@Toppervision1]

[@dfactoryrat653]

Hi! Nice build, can you tell me the dimensions?

[@Toppervision1]

It's 1/24 scale. I don't know the actual length.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Looks great, those kits have really nice tires.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Sucks about the lack of Chrome in the kit, but wow you sorted that out!!

[@ModelCarMinion]

That chrome looks amazing with the blue paint.

[@seamybmw]
