Hi all, Apologies if this is photo heavy... I finished this earlier this summer. Pretty straight forward OOB build. Literally glued the whole thing together, sprayed it silver, then hand painted the suspension arms and any other small details. The decals were nice and thick and went on a treat. Not 100% happy with the colour as the real thing looks more like a mirror finish than silver but short of MF'ing it I'm not sure how i'd be able to recreate that finish. Not much else to say about it, any questions just ask! (I know I messed up on the tyre logo's...) Here's some shots of it with the Merc from the same year:

Hi Everyone, Here is my ready for inspection thread for the Revell 1:24 scale Vodafone McLaren Mercedes MP4-25 in Jensen Button's colours that I have been working on. I suppose this really should be a ready for inspection sort of thread.... I still have 3 decals to apply to the car when the replacements arrive from Revell for the ones which split during the application phase. Anyway onto the photos (I will take final photos when the 3 missing decals have been applied, will be somewhere between 4 and 6 weeks). Considering this is the first model of something which doesn't float or fly at the speed of sound, I am quite impressed with the way this came out. I will be looking to buy the new Revell 1:24 Red Bull Racing RB8 Formula 1 car in Mark Webber's colours when it becomes available in November (probably be one of my christmas presents). Thanks for looking everyone. Comments welcomed. Cheers, Rick

Hi Everyone, Here is my build thread for another new project that I have started working on. It is Revell's 1:24 scale version of Jensen Button's 2010 McLaren Mercedes MP4-25 formula 1 car. I intended to do this as a fill-in build for my Ronald Reagan aircraft carrier, but it seems that this one has taken over my time today at least. I have completed stages 1 - 6A, see photos below. Stages 1-4 Engine assembled with exhausts attached. Stage 5 - Chassis bottom painted and assembled. Stage 6A - First 7 decals attached to the chassis lower side (not fun to do. but makes it look carbon fibre like) Thanks for looking, more progress tomorrow morning. Rick
