Tamiya Renault Re20 Turbo

[ferrarijoe]

Just finished up this build. Typical Tamiya build no real issues. Since its and older kit the tubing is hard and dose not like to bend. and the decals are brittle. the black band around the cockpit ripped in about 10 places while applying. And they don't stick very well, a coat of future solved that.

She looks good Joe. I see a lot of nice work in there. Those large decals can be a bear to work with.

I am not into building this style.

However, I do like to look at builds and this is a nice one!

Great work! I'm loving all the F1 cars I've seen on here lately. Is that 1/20 or 1/12 scale? The belts in the cockpit are awesome.

Joe....after a second look, I'm really impressed. I started this kit a few years ago and never finished it. I too had issues with the decals. They were "yellowed" and brittle with just about zero adhesion left. Expected from an old kit I guess. At the time I had order a new decal sheet from IndyCals. Cost me about $20 for a new sheet. Unfortunately I never put it back on the bench but your build has definitely got it back on the top of my list. Great job and keep 'me comin!

My kit came with a set of extra white decals that were not yellowed. The black band came of sheet ok. But when I went to slide in to final spot it just fell apart. So I tried to put it togther the best I could. And hit any cracks with black paint.
