This Coral Blue isn't a color I would have been likely to choose if I hadn't seen it on the box art and approved.  The box trucks we have in the USA don't look quite like this so the appearance is a bit foreign to me, but I really like it nonetheless.  The corrugated panels and striking decals make for a very impressive appearance.  As always, the lights make it even better.

   

   

   


Here is a real truck for comparison.  It even uses the same stripe scheme as the Tamiya model. My decision to paint the outer fog lights yellow was based on this image.
