Hi guys and girls this is my latest build. Ever since this kit came out I have had it in my stash (2 of them actually I have built one already) then when Michael Schumacher had his skiing accident at the end of 2013 I wanted to make this into the best model that I could so as you will see in the pictures below I have got a lot of extra bits to make the base kit better. Right so on with the build The obligatory box shot On the the extras I have a new wheel a brake system Photo etch With the above bits I also have the tobacco barcode decals and the exhaust tips So having already made this kit once I can happily say it isn't one of fujimis best attempts, actually from the ones I have made it is by far the worst thought out as you will see by the modifications I have made A quick mock up of the main body parts I cut the rear section off of the engine cover that supports the rear wing, on my fist attempt of this kit this was a problem area for fitment Then I went a step further and cut the engine cover off of the monocoque which was moulded as one big bit, really bad move fujimi Then on top of the I cut the fuel filler cap off One of the main boo boos with this kit is the front section goes together, under the red areas is a black inner part that if you follow the instructions would leave a massive join line down both side of the body So I cut the cockpit section out to ease the later construction The nose cone has been put together The side pods areas a really badly thought out as the bottom section need to be attached to the floor and the rest to the engine cover The upper front suspension arms have been cut up so they can be connected once painted Thanks for lookin More to come soon Shaun
