curt raitz Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Just finished another F1 Model... this being the 1/20th scale Lotus 79 from Hasegawa #FG3 What a beautiful kit, everything went together flawlessly I was very apprehensive about painting a black model, but Tamiya's TS-14 did the job. Application of the decals on this model are not for the weak-of-heart, you have to be very patient and careful. I did clear coat (Tamiya TS-13) over the decals, because this is a shiny race car...saw it at Long Beach I decided to build Ronnie Peterson's car as raced in the German Grand Prix, cuz everyone builds Mario's winning car from this race... plus he has a cool lookin' helmet! Another nice touch to the Hasegawa kit is the inclusion of the helmet and decals for it. Thanx for lookin'... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
