Re: 1/8 scale F1 kits
I have built both the mp4 and 643. The detail is much higher on the mp4. The 643 is relatively basic out of the box more of a scaled up 1/12 design.

Re: rosso ferrari 643

Re: Tamiya 1:12 McLaren MP4/6 Rebuild/Upgrade
Stunning work. When scratching the brass mount plates how did you cut them to get the even “egg” shape?

Photobucket has suspended third party hosting. This has impacted many builds on this forum and other sites. Unfortunately you either need to pay photobucket a very large fee or move to another hosting site.
I hope you move to another host site. I am really enjoying this build!

Re: Autograph model: 1/4 fastener set
Paul Koo (author of the pocher assembly DVDs) created the set for the Ducati. You can buy directly from him through eBay. He is also selling them thru Autograph, they are the same thing. I have dealt with both Paul and Autograph previously and have had excellent experiences.

Re: MFH 1/12 BT52b
There can never be too many pics of a good looking build like this! How has the fit of the resin pieces been? Looks perfect in the pics. Just curious if it required lots of toiling.

Re: Top Studio 1/12 Tamiya MP4/6 Engine detail up!
I have this kit and the top studio upgrade in my stash. Top Studio has a great job with the packaging and instructions. Do you know what else they have planned for this kit?

Re: Rosso 1/8 Ferrari 643
Looks really nice! Are you using scale motor sports decals for the CF pattern? I am also really curious what you and Paul are brainstorming for connectors.
