Hi there,

my first F1 car build. Easy build, painting the livery was the hardest job on it. Built OOB except for PE seat belts that I added.

Very well done!!!! I like the 1/20 F1 kits. I have that kit...need to build!!!

Well Thomas...you didn't exactly pick the easiest paint job to do your first F-1 car...but you really pulled it off beautifully. Congrats on a job well done.

[Tommy124]

Many thanks guys for your kind feedback.

Yes, I imagine it's painting this livery that keeps more people from building this kit. ?

Looks great!

Very nice job.  I have built a few Benettons from the 80's.  Paint is not an easy thing to do.
