No ear splitting background music. Just zen-like concentration. Lovely. I would put that engine and transmission alone in a display case.

Wow, fantastic build. Great skill with the pinstripes (I have avoided this kit for just that reason!) Also your clear coat and polishing are spot on! I too love the minimal sounds, congratulations on a beautiful piece of work all round.

@christopherscott934 4 жыл бұрын

I build alot of armor and have never washed the parts after sanding. The directions suggest doing so but luckily I've never had an issue when it came to primering the hulls etc. I guess it's different when doing auto kits though when it comes to needing to lay down smooth gloss coats. Great work on the F1 btw, Tamiya do pretty good auto kits.

I built a similar kit 30 some years ago. I loved the black Lotus Formula One model. Mine was the John Player Special and the kit didn't have this level of detail. It was one of my worst built simply because the decal work was so difficult. Glad to see this video on how to properly build a F-1 kit.
