so you destroyed a perfect copy to make it one-colour? you have something personal with mcrae/warmbold or what?

There is nothing wrong with repainting a model into a different colour scheme if that is what you want. Omer has created a unique model for his collection and did a great job too! Thanks for sharing your photos, Omer. What will your next project be?

I am a fan of Mc Rae and I have the same model car in my collection with many others he had driven in his career.
this was a spare car I have in hand which I decided to use it for a custom project and it turned out Warmbold car due to its color.
if you interested, you can see all my other custom projects at the below link;

Wow very impressive! Do you know if MINI is going to release models of Dani and Kris from the 2011 Season?

[omer yetis]

if I am not wrong they will but in 1/43. my collection is made of 1/18 models.
I bought a Norev Street version thinking of converting to a WRC car in the future if none of the producers release one

[Plan9]

Cool good for you! Can you tell me where they can be found?

[omer yetis]

He sure didn't build it wondering 'oh I hope slowson likes my choice of livery'. It was very well done too btw.
