Tim here. I’m a fairly recent convert to scale car modelling. I’ve mainly built armour and aircraft kits and a few ships. That changed about two months ago when I saw Tamiya’s 1/20 Honda RA 272 kit. Cars of that era are the dream cars of my youth, when F1 got lots of tv coverage in the 12 channel universe.
I built the Honda kit and I was hooked. Currently, I’m waiting for the USPS to arrive with an Olsonite Eagle kit from Texas via eBay. I came to this forum because of a stunning build by “ismaelg” that turned up on Google. The man clearly has talent! I’ve read that this kit is a little tricky and fragile so any and all references will be invaluable. Except for adding some wiring and plumbing, it’ll be out of the box. While I won’t even attempt ismael’s ideas, I will be inspired by his patient craftsmanship.
Glad to be here.
Tim
