Still use TopStudio's upgrade parts.

Added weathering to accentuate the detail.

The painting and wiring just followed MFH's detail book. Also weathered the rivets.

Exquisite, as usual.

Among your other refined skills, your ability to use accent coatings so subtly makes all the difference. I love it.

Also: you didn’t say, but since you were using the Top Studio up kit, I assumed this was the Tamiya kit. However, the wishbones in the last picture look like white metal to me, and you mentioned MFH, so now I’m confused.

Thanks a lot, I hope it almost perfect.

Yes, I used Tamiya wih TopStudio's set. The wishbone is Tamiya's parts, they probably used metal for all 1/12 F1 car.

The MFH detail book just uses for reference. I did some modifications based on it.

Yes, of course they do. And I know that! Just another of my increasingly frequent brain farts. Thank you for the clarification.
