Tamiya Rock Buster Project

Because the TLT-1 Rock Buster is a miniature version of the TXT-1, it was important to me to follow the box art and maintain the look.  Although it looks like it would be very complicated to mask and paint the delineation between yellow and blue, it was actually very simple.  Only the nose is painted yellow; the rest is stickers.  This also means it is very important that you use the right yellow or the stickers won't match.  I think the body came out perfectly.  Note that it does not have clear windows which means they don't need to be masked.  Instead they are just stickers.


   

   

   

   



Here's how the Rock Buster compares in size to his TXT-1 big brother.
