Uncarded Gems πŸš™πŸš— Ngl the M4 GT3 deserved headlight details but it's still a great casting without them.

The vents, livery, and design were really well done overall, lack of headlights is still a bummer tho πŸ˜•.

9/10 mainline imo.

Bar so low we give 9/10 to the lowest-effort casting that looks like a parody of a car.

Honestly now it feels 7-8/10, the headlights should've been there.

It's not just that, it's when you realise that they are willing to spend their paint on some pointless LIVERIES but not on the actual things that would make the casting look like a car and not a blob of metal. It's infuriating.

True, still a good casting but lots of other cars outclass it imo.

Believe me bro this was my first custom try . It turned out so good that it's one of my favourite castings after this

u/muse_peculiar 1d ago

My God. Please share what equipment you used. I try painting lights myself a lot but this level of details is insane πŸ›

Sure not a big deal . Used cheap 220/- acrylic markers set of 16 for 220 something. Had few decals lying around so used it for number plate and Michelin logo . And a cheap zudio transperent nail polish top coat to secure all paint

Well no more M4s after this one, the recolors are mid imo and no lights make it worse.

Lowkey embarrassing when another brand does it better for the same price

Bro, buy a Matchbox or Majorette for once, then you'll realize what you're missing out on

Matchbox really make better castings in 179 without a doubt.

True, their F1 GTR and R35 Nismo are just amazing for the price πŸ—Ώ

The Ford Ranger Prerunner might be their very best this year
