I have been after this kit for a while and despite the decels being aged were usable the overall color was tamiya's coral blue from a can.
Some of tyre decels did disintegrate but overall I am pleased with the outcome.
The car depicted was raced by Ivan cappeli.
Also I put some after market belts in as the moulded ones just don't work.P1030994.JPG P1030995.JPG P1030996.JPG P1030997.JPG P1030998.JPG P1030999.JPG P1040001.JPG P1040002.JPG

Now this is fast ( I know your a fast builder ) but this looks awesome and fast!!! Even if it's standing still
The Coral blue looks an awesome colour and I do like this very much.

Well done you and I'd be proud of this indeed

Regards

Wow I remember this from my years of marshalling at Silverstone just up the road and the March/Leyton House factory just another 12 miles in Bicester, and Ivan was one of the nicest of the F1 circus. Super build by the way!

I have just given this one a slight makeover I purchased a set of Goodyear tire masks and replaced the tire decals and a little dusting off reattached the front wing and a coat of clear gloss.
This is a practice in readiness for my next F1 build.20190607_183910.jpg20190607_183916.jpg20190607_183932.jpg20190607_183958.jpg
