F1M Forums

Hello anybody in England. I have acquired 99 of 100 packs of the 1/8 F40LM but have not been about to find this one last pack, pack 51, until today. My problem is that I live in the US and the EBAY seller lives in the UK. I am looking for somebody that can buy the part from him and forward it on to me. Seller cannot ship overseas. It is a structural part and I am dead in the water without it. I will send money prior to your purchase as this has been prearranged with the seller. I will also pay for your troubles.

Please PM me if you can help me. To sweeten the offer, I have an old, resin and PE 1/24 333SP from Perry’s that I bought a long time ago. It’s partially started and I have no use for it. You pay shipping for this however. It’s a nice kit.

Yes, I really need this part and your help.

Hi Pascal,
always compliments for your work!
I too am working on the body of a Ferrari, the 312 PB in 1/12 scale by MFH and I would be grateful if you could tell me which brand are the rivets you are using for the body of the 312B that appear in your photo posted.
Thank you,
Greetings,
Giovanni La Rosa

Museum collection might have what you need.
One of their sets is often advertised with a picture of helmets, but in fact it seems to include several additional decals for the MP4/30:

Tabu 20142 would be fine too. I found a Finnish site who has them but don’t speak the language and it seems that they don’t send outside of Finland..

Very nice work Pascal!

I think you mean TABU20145.
I also just checked my usual shops and contact points and can't find it either.
It's sold out everywhere.

Unfortunately I can't send you better news.

Resin parts and ALPS decals to convert the Tamiya MP4/8 into the Sauber C12. Please note this is appears to be made and casted by one person so there will need to be some adjusting of parts for proper fit.
Instructions are in Japanese only.

$75 + $10 shipping in the US. International shipping should be about $20, but I can check individual countries.

I’m looking for two sets of Johnnie decals for my Ebbro mid season and Japan GP.

Does anyone know where to find these decals? Tabu made them but I can not find a store who has them in stock.

Hope somebody can help

Thanks in advance,

Ron

Hello everyone,

Back to business, the 312B and I, after a short break.


Pleasant temperature, a little rain, flights for the day cancelled:
Let’s go painting!

I'm still doing a test with the rivets that I'm going to use before taking out the airbrush.



That suits me.
I prepare the material and mix a little paint for my undercoat: pink this time.







…and finally, the Rosso Corsa an hour later.



In order to prepare the installation of the race numbers, I decided to paint the white circles... as a preamble to the decals... or not.

So we wait a little over an hour after the red coat, make masks and camouflage.





…And spray the white.



Then unmask quickly, the time to clean the gun.



It will be easier to count the number of white rivets needed.


Voila, voila.
Next very soon.

Pascal

A 1/24 scale version?
Don't think so. The parts are designed for 1/8 scale and maybe they can work for 1/12. But for smaller scales they would be thin as paper.
Not possible to print it without getting back to the CAD file and start from the beginning.
Sorry, but that was not my intention when I start it.

Regards Christian

That is impressive. May be one day you'll put out 1/24 version as well

Just a thought. When someone asks for offers just start low with your offer.15 bucks

Seriously, i don`t know what`s the problem with posting an asking price.... should be an official rule againYeah. That´s what I think too. Not sure why it was removed
Sorry Rob for the OT/hijack. Nice kit Don't we wish hahaha?

Seriously, this rare combo when I was bidding in Japan for a whooping 12,000 JPY. It was outbid immediately lol!
