Federciccio Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 hello everyone, this is my first WIP here. I started building this kit weeks ago, i work very slowly only in short time at night. Never built an F1 bebore, and i can say that is a bit difficult, too many pieces that you don't know if paint bebore or after.. Anyway this is the job done till now: 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Federciccio Posted April 13, 2021 Author Share Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) I used mostly ALCLAD paints, which are are very difficult to damage or scratch, but despite this, continuously handling the assembled parts I had to do a lot of retouching: a mess in other words!

Chimpion Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Looks great to me. I wish my messes looked like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orso Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 You are right. I still don't know when to paint what when building a F1 car. I have built two of those and have two more in the stash. An old kit but still a nice one. You're off on a good start on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Federciccio Posted April 23, 2021 Author Share Posted April 23, 2021 (edited) ...another little update of my wip: one question: I painted front wheelhubs and swingarms with True metal oils, can I protect all the stuff with tamiya clear cote? There may be reaction problems with the oils? thank you all! Edited April 23, 2021 by Federciccio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
