  1. Fanastic job!! Love these kind of cars. Thanks for posting!
  2. Nice job!! Welcome back ! This car was designed by Tony Southgate and was one of the only cars with a short tail. From what I read it created excellant straight away speed with good down force. A well balanced car.
  3. Very nice build !! Good color combo, is that red TS85 by any chance? Cheers, Jere
  4. Not much of a WIP anymore. After a year I'm about ready to wrap this up finally!! Just a couple carbon fiber decals, the mirrors, and I was 4 rivets short on the one side. I'm really happy with it, being it my first modern F1 build. This should be in the Under Glass section soon! Jere
  5. Very nice!! I like the wheels and the body color. Jere
  6. Nice work!! I like your detail work and your carbon decals look great! Jere

    Dante, The carbon decals are Scale Motorsport 1024 twill weave. It's a Fujimi kit. Jere
  11. that is very nice build., Did you have any problems with the kit or the HD photoetch. I have both in my stash. Joe, The only thing I can remember having a problem with on the kit, was the back glass needs to be shorten alittle to fit in its spot. I think I even sanded the mounting area towards the back. Just test fit it and you will see what I'm talking about.The HD photo-etch is really nice, but be careful it is easy to bend. It's very thin and soft. Was it a challenge to get the photoetch buckles where you wanted them on the belts? Curtis, kinda, I pulled on them with a tweezers to the right length then folded it around the buckle, then stuck a chunk of double sided tape between the belt material. Then just pinched it together. Thanks again for liking my car!! It's really nice to hear. Jere
  12. That is off the charts cool. Nice detailing!! I also enjoyed your WIP pics. Thanks for sharing.Jere
