Timbo343 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Here's the completed Benetton 188 which i bought of ebay that was part done and had a few bits missing from it. I got the green and yellow markings slightly wrong - where the camel logo is, the green should have been a thinner line. Not bad to say i had to dismantle most of it to rebuild it and give it some paint. And there's a slight discolouring on the blue just under the sisley sign. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeastieBoy73 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 That's great. Really brought back memories as to when I last watched F1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Moon Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Nice work! I've always wanted to build this, but the paint scheme was always too intimidating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbo343 Posted March 11, 2017 Author Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) Thank you all for the comments The colour scheme wasn't as bad as it looks. Just as long as you mask off, its fine. Thank god for the wonders of white primer but i do hate to spray the dam stuff. Ive got halfords one at the moment and its too thin and comes out the can too quick.

markrob Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Great build and finish Timbo. Which paints did you use for the body colours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbo343 Posted March 18, 2017 Author Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) It was the tamiya range as mentioned in the instructions. Then x22 gloss mixed with asda's acetone free nail varnish remover (the blue one) mixed 2:1 (x22 : thinner) sprayed with the nozzel cap removed from the airbrush sprayed at a low pressure.
