ferrarijoe Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 A new day a new build. So got a box full of goodies from Amazon yesterday. and decided to start the Heller F1 kit in it. Plus still waiting for photo etch for other kit. This is my first Heller kit. I am disappointed with it fit is not very good. So I am pretty much having to build the kit then paint it. Kind of like resin kit. So here is some progress. this thing needs filler everywhere. the body lines where rear cowl meets up was pretty much didn't exist so I took back of hobby knife to it.

bbowser Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) Interesting. I've been mulling getting a couple of these but I may hold back now to see how yours goes. Looks good so far What scale is this, 1/18? Edited October 2, 2014 by bbowser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferrarijoe Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) Yes it is 1/18. I was just looking at more refined pics and Heller messed up major wing from the side of the car. So I don't know if I want to fab it up or just build it like it is. When I get to the computer I'll post a pic.
