Re: Meng McLaren MP4/4 in 1/24th scale

Meng can also do a 1/24 Lotus 99T as it uses the similar Honda engine.

Re: Meng McLaren MP4/4 in 1/24th scale

Good news! I have kept a Gunze 1/24 motorized MP4/4 for a long time for modification. Now I can have a full detailed kit! The Gunze kit has all the tobacco decals that I can use on the detailed kit. Hasegawa had done a whole series of 1990's F1 cars with pretty good results. The suspension mounting ...

Re: Where to find F1/Indycar/single seater kits

I think whether new injection molded model kits will be produced by the big name model companies is still down to money. Fujimi released a new lot of 1/20 F1 cars of the early 2000 and than stopped. If the sales are very good and Fujimi is having a good return, there is no reason to stop producing m...

There are also some old F1 cars from the 60's. They are also been release a couple years ago. There are the BT52 and MP4/2B from Beemax recent...

Re: Decals over white paint

I have a Revell 1/25 AAR CART car that I finished at least 15 years ago. It is always in a display case not in direct sunlight. I just check, some of the decals start to show a little bit of yellow but one big one on the side pot is still pretty clear. The kit was sealed with Future floor wax. I rem...

Re: MotoGP 1/12 SUZUKI GSX-RR 2022

Hi Dede,

These are very nicely done bikes. I very much like the fact that you hide/replace all the kit provided screws.

Your detailed painting of the chain looks really good. Great job!

Re: Lotus Martini green

Color photos, either as hard copies or electronic versions, cannot be trusted to represent a color correctly. The color on the photo of the same subject can be different depending on the lighting and setting of the camera. That is why you cannot find the color of the car to be the same. Tamiya and T...

Re: Hyundai i20 Coupe WRC

Hi Lee,

The car looks great!

The decals still look like a challenge to me. You have done a great job.
