This one just finished. An older issue of Hasegawa’s Subaru Impreza WRX (Rally 94/95) in 1/24th scale. A great little kit as is normal with this company’s models, which included a small sheet of photoetch. I got hold of Renaissance’s replacement decal set to depict the 1994 Rally GB winning car of Colin McRae, which set him on the road to his World Championship the year after.

Sitting high on gravel suspension the replacement decals give the correct day-glo look, and the Tamiya TS-50 spray looks spot-on.

A nice easy build which benefits from careful finishing, and on to the shelf it goes!

Lovely build but I'm pretty certain the 555 Legacys and Group A Imprezas were a solid dark blue, the Mica blue was '97 onwards on the WRC cars.

You've done a lovely clean job of that! I agree with above though, the colour should be a solid purple blue hue!
Still, doubt you can change that now! Just go with modellers licence!
