I love the fact that although this is an RC car and most people will be looking at the outside, not expecting an interior to be well designed, you still add detail. THAT'S WHAT I CALL COMMITMENT GOOD JOB!!
This video really helped me paint my first RC car. I used the same method for applying decals on the Lancia and it came out near perfect! The tip for painting over with white on the mistakes really saved me. Great video thanks!
If there were 10 like-buttons I would click them all. Great job, Matteo. And thanks for showing all your tips and tricks about building, painting and applying the stickers.
Looks absolutely mint, Matteo! Thanks for the tips on how to apply the big decals using the tape and heat gun. This has always given me grief and now you have showed the best way! Cheers.
¡Gracias!...¡Eres un maestro! Tus trucos para colocar y pegar bien los adhesivos son muy buenos y el resultado final es fantástico. He aprendido mucho con este video.
The headlight cover has a spru tab still on it. I had to watch this video again because its so great! I have my trigger finger on a Lancia right now, I might have to eat peanut butter and jelly next month, but it looks worth it 😀
Excellent warm air technique on the large, complex decals there Matteo👍🏻 I too like to use a large aerosol can affixed to the roof interior for painting the main body. It's such a nice way to get easy access all round with the paint😎👍🏻 Excellent video Sir and beautiful end result.
Always a pleasure Matteo 😎👍🏻 You're videos are always superb and your channel is one of my favourites. I also own a Tamiya 037, but mine is the TA-03RS variant. And I have not been so brave as you to build it yet😆
Nice work there you got a good finish. All I would say extra would be that I would recommend you to invest in an air brush and compressor to paint the small details when you mask. This would stop the ugly paint runs under the tape and take your builds to the next level.
Yes, of course it can be better and better with sanding and painting and polish at the end. But over all I'm happy how it looks without this effort. And after a first run and crash all the work is sensless.... 😂😂
Thanks! Yes, the film is long but I wanted to show every aspect of the build. And I think it's possible to skip forward if its not interresting for you. 👍😊
Thank you! Maybe yes, I don't know. Normally I do not tighten the bolts too much, but everything is possible. I'll check this next time. Thanks for your feedback! 😊👍
Good video et good job for the body Shell. A lot of patience..... I leave in Corsica, in the country where Atilio Bettega in 1985 was died driving this (real) car. I was young when it s arrived. Nice realisation Matteo for memories 😉
I think I would cut the large bumper so it extends just to the front edge of the body, and then heat the bumper with the hot air gun to bend it up so it meets the front edge of the body. That way it will help support the body in a crash.
Nice Paintjob..and useful Tricks to put the decails on..If you paint the black colour with Tamiya x18 ,you can also use a cutter to remove small mistakes after removing the masking tape..did you already try this, instead of using white coulour for overpainting?
I am glad I found another one of your build Series!! 👍👍 This is my favorite Rally Car! I wanted this kit so badly, but it couldn't happen... Thank you for this my friend. Carmine 🚂🚙
It isn't sadly... and we need help, but can't find any after 3 years of trying. 💔 I'm more worried about my family. We need Money. Thank you for your well wishes! Hopefully things will start to get better.
Lol, I'm doing a build series for mine too right now. It's too cold for me to paint right now. Hopefully I'll get a decent day to do so. Fantastic work my friend!
It almost sounded like you were getting over a cold of some sort. It's that time of year,take care of yourself Matteo and happy new year. I always loved this model thought it was the coolest ralleye car with all the lights. Thx for putting out there👍✌👍✌
All good things come to them who wait and you have delivered a great video again. It turned out perfect. It would be great to run it with the honda city turbo. You gonna have a go at the commical hornet when it gets released
I wish you a great year Matteo, always fun to watch your video 👍 Sometime with hardbody , when the sticker are Well made, like in your video... i put the clear tamiya at the end, have you test this? (Sorry for my english )😉 Have fun folks😉
@@Matteomeier , hello my freind. Yes ,now i always put the clear after my sticker . The way you cut well your stickers (like i do) you will love the result. Its a uniforme match .👍😉
Wow, looks fantastic, nice work Matteo. I hope you don't drive it into a wall and regret putting on the smaller bumper ! Look forward to seeing this run :-)
Hallo Mat! Ok, I've built the chassis, but using super glue to join the sponges for the tyres is not a good idea! I'm ready now for painting. 😊 I am going to keep the main white colour as is, but will first polish before painting the details. It's a great little car, thanks for your invaluable input! Regards Trevor
Ottimo video, utilissimo per chi come me è alle prime armi! Una domanda: ma la carrozzeria non andrebbe colorata dall'interno? Colorandola all'esterno non c'è pericolo che si graffi subito?
Hi Matteo ! Ein FROHES GESUNDES 2019 ! What a Beauty ! Dieses Auto ist einfach genial ! Wieder sehr informativ ! Die Heatgun wirkt wirklich Wunder ! Ich freue mich schon auf deine neuen Projekte in 2019 Viele Grüße in die schöne Schweiz
@@Matteomeier It is a bit of money up front but if you're doing a lot models it will be worth it. Also it's something you can keep for many years if you look after it. I would say that once you get the hang of it it's easier than spraying with cans since you can control how much paint is coming out and work slower, you also get a consistent pressure. It's also easier to get into smaller areas than a can. You can stick with Tamiya paints and thinners if you like and I think you will get a much better finish after some practice. I spent a day messing around with mine and then the next day I was spraying a model and was happy with the results.
Sorry for my scratching voice at the end of the video! Maybe I talked too much!
You can never talk too much! You have so much excellent info to share :)
Great informational video Matteo. I picked up some good tips, I'm working on a Lancia as well.
Thanks for your nice feedback! Glad it was helpful! 👍👍😊😊
Thanks so much! Pleased to hear this! 😊😊
The voice was fine. Are you actually Italian or did you effect the accent to complement the Lancia? :D
I just finished my Lancia 037 build....I don't think i could have done it without your videos...thank you!
Thanks for your good feedback! Glad to hear it was helpful! 👍😊
Awesome as usual .... you are the tamiya master.... and they should consider hiring you as an ambasador
Wow! What a great compliment! Thanks Graham! 🙏🙏😊😊

The satisfaction obtained from these vids are in the realms of over 9000....
Thank you Matteo
Thank you Isaac for your nice comment! 🙏😊👍

Thanks Jesper! Glad it was helpfull! 👍😊

I find it very relaxing just watching a Matteo Tamiya build, and explain how he is doing it. 😀
Thank you! Glad to hear this! 😊😊👍
@@Matteomeier 😀
too beautiful and detailed to run. This is a shelf queen.
I have to do a running video, but for sure I have to be very careful! 👍😊
Walther Rohrl, what a driver. I may have been tempted to paint the spare wheel on the interior, a fine build though.
If there were 10 like-buttons I would click them all. Great job, Matteo. And thanks for showing all your tips and tricks about building, painting and applying the stickers.
Thanks so much Tomas! I say 10 times THANK YOU! 😊👍
That turned out really nice, I would probably paint the body posts and pins white so they don't stand out as much.
Thanks! Yes, always room for improvements! 👍😊
@@Matteomeier I've got one myself now, not sure when I'll get around to building it though.
Cool, enjoy it!

Muchas gracias Estoy feliz
Great video! I had no idea how to work corners and put large decals on straight. Now I have the confidence to try it myself. Once I get a heat gun.
Thanks! Glad it was helpfull! But be careful with the heat!
Nice method with the masking tape for the decals! And the hot air gun. Thanks
Thanks! Glad it was helpfull! 👍😊
I used a heat gun when I did the body decals. Worked a treat. Thanks for the tip!
Great! Glad to hear it was helpful! 😊👍
The headlight cover has a spru tab still on it.
I had to watch this video again because its so great! I have my trigger finger on a Lancia right now, I might have to eat peanut butter and jelly next month, but it looks worth it 😀
Yes, you have to set priorities in live... 😂😂
It is relaxing to watch the details come together, but it makes me want to buy another Tamiya!
One more Tamiya is always good! 👍 Thanks Nick! 🙏
Best tutorial. And satisfying video I ever watched. I just ordered this Lancia. So excited to spend som weeks on it 😁
So much detail In Tamiya Rc models and fantastic painting looks Excellent. 👌
Thank you! 🙏😊
I'm always impressed when I watching your videos! Respect for incredible professionalism!
Thanks a lot for your fantastic feedback! 🙏🙏😊😊
@@Matteomeier It's my pleasure! 🤗🤗
I really enjoy watching your movies. Lots of usefull tips as,for example, applying stickers, simple and effecive.
Glad it was helpful, thanks for your nice feedback! 🙏🙏😊😊
Great video, just ordered my heat gun and getting paints next week, going to enjoy this build, still need to find cockpit tho!

Thank you! Yes, I already thought about this. But having a bit fear about the complexity and handling of an airbrush...
Amazing work. Excellent tips. I've been doing this a long time and still learned so much.
Thank you so much! For me it's the same, after more than 35 years, I can still learn new things. This is the good part on our hobby!
I've been seeing a few guys building these lately, must be a hot model
After the body was painted with the clear. Did you have specs of fine dust? I say if you did could try wet sanding it. And To remove the orange peel.
Yes, of course it can be better and better with sanding and painting and polish at the end. But over all I'm happy how it looks without this effort. And after a first run and crash all the work is sensless.... 😂😂
Excellent work, Matteo. U make the application of decals look easy.
Thanks Steve! 🙏😊
You give me very good tricks to place the stickers e.x. Thanks a lot because I just bought the car. The film is well a little bit to long.
Thanks! Yes, the film is long but I wanted to show every aspect of the build. And I think it's possible to skip forward if its not interresting for you. 👍😊
@@Matteomeier yes so I looked and have i learn a lot.
Beautiful job! Currently redoing a ta03 lancia 037. Love that body style.
Thanks Jason! 🙏 Yes this body is something special. 👍
That little Lancia emblem decal on the grille must’ve been a bit of a challenge to stick on.
Not the biggest! 😊
Great job on the body . It looks to nice to run!! .
Thank you! 😊
Are you going to put LEDs in the light buckets? I am curious if the body is set up for this or if it would require modification.
Yes, I think I'll do it. It needs only to enlarge the holes a bit to be able to insert LEDs in the light buckets. Not a big deal. 😊
nice car & good job man love your videos can you do a built video fortamiya fast attack vihecle too
Thanks Gald you liked it!
Excellent work as always! Thank you for the tips along the way too. Especially the masking tape method for the larger decals.
Thanks! Glad it was helpful! 😊
Nice one Matteo. You've done a grand job there.
Thanks for your nice feedback! 🙏🙏😊😊
Awesome as always! As for the helmet, I wonder if you had tightened the bolt too much? Usually, those helmets don't have gaps like that.
Thank you! Maybe yes, I don't know. Normally I do not tighten the bolts too much, but everything is possible. I'll check this next time. Thanks for your feedback! 😊👍
Good video et good job for the body Shell. A lot of patience..... I leave in Corsica, in the country where Atilio Bettega in 1985 was died driving this (real) car. I was young when it s arrived. Nice realisation Matteo for memories 😉
Thanks for your nice feedback! I see some memories are in this car for you!
Matteo keep up the good work. I really appreciate your clips. Always fun to watch.
Thanks a lot! 👍👍😊😊
should i spray clear coat over the decals to protect it?
You can do this, but the protection is not very good.
is decal already pre-cutted sticker or use a razor scissor cut for it
Not pre-cutted you need to cut
A beautiful RC model, well done on a great video, keen to see it in action.
Thanks Paul! 😊
Great video Matteo. Thanks for sharing all the tips and tricks. You took alot of quality time on this and it turned out great.
Thank you so much! 😊👍
Great video, amazing detail! For a Heat Gun, what heat/wattage do you recommend? Thanks!
I don’t know how much watts, mine is only a cheap one... but I would recommend a low force to begin.
I think I would cut the large bumper so it extends just to the front edge of the body, and then heat the bumper with the hot air gun to bend it up so it meets the front edge of the body. That way it will help support the body in a crash.
Yes, this is a good idea. Maybe it could have prevent the crash in my last video. 👍😊
@@Matteomeier: I didn't see what caused the crash. How would the large bumper help? Did the small bumper get caught on a rock, or something like that?
@@deusexaethera Because there was no front bumper, the front spoiler of the body touched the ground and this caused the rollover...
Great video, the finished model looks superb. I look forward to seeing the Lancia in action soon.
Thanks Allan! 😊😊
Beautiful looking RC, Nice work Matteo.
Thanks! 😊
That’s cool!!
I've seen the video before and bought a Tamiya Defender.
Nice! Defender is a good car!
I always watch your video very entertaining..

A really useful video thanks - am about to build this myself (in lockdown) - your guidance will be so useful
Thanks Allan, have fun with your build! 😊👍
I wonder if i can add the interior to my TT-02 Acura NSX?
Yes, this should work. The shape of the interiour can be easely adjusted by a scissor.

first head on crash may cost you some repair of the front lights because they have no protection you removed the standard bumper

good tips for the stickers in there... looks good bud. happy new yr

You should get an airbrush man. You'll get even better results and it will pay itself off pretty quickly compared to the spray cans you use.
Thanks Glen. I allready thought about this, but never had the courage to do it. is it easy to use?
