Jouko Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 I decided to make a slightly different version of this Tamiya 1/12 scale kit. Everyone have already seen many of these Martini versions made by different people, but I haven't seen anything similar that I made now. So this is the all-white version with the smallest possible amount of decals, etc. I didn't want to install the body in its place because it is intended to be displayed separately. Some aftermarket parts have been added to the model. The seat belts are made of 3mm satin ribbon instead of the set's own. 4mm tape should have been used as well, but this is such an experimental piece. I assembled some parts, e.g. the engine, already last winter, now during July-August I painted everything and assembled it into the final shape. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
othertales Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 It looks gorgeous without most of the decals. It's often my preferred way when I look at racing cars and in order to appreciate all the racing modifications/details so it's great to see such a beautiful build going in a similar direction 🤍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnøMotion Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Wow! That’s fantastic! It looks great without the decals, I think it gives more weight to the details of the body itself. Really nice build👌 Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
