Digging in and starting work on Tamiya's 1/12th scale Williams FW14B. This is my first kit after years away from the hobby. Will be following the instructions mostly but adding detail parts as I go.

My bank account is trying to crawl under a duck but in the last month I have purchased the following:

MFH Lotus 56B
MFH Brabham BT45B
MFH Brabham BT46B
TAM Lotus 79 X 2
HSG Lotus 79
IMC Ford GT Mk II
IMC Ford GT MK IV
TAM Leclerc MBT

I'm a sucker for French armour having spent a great deal of time in an AMX 13 APC.

Peter...are you a fan of sky king or the cessna 310 "songbird"?

An MFH Lotus 72C arrived in the mail yesterday, and an S27 Sauber C29 and Fujimi McLaren MP4/5 are waiting at the post for me. Prior to that was a Fujimi Williams FW14b, Footwork FA13.

Waiting to be released and shipped are S27 Lotus 127, and MFH Brabham BT46B.

Cheers,

I joined this forum a little while ago and I 've seen already some pretty amazing stuff. After about 10 years I have recently picked up this hobby again. I bought:

1/20 Lotus 79 Tamiya with additional detailing parts: photo etched from Tamiya, the metal chassis and moveable side skirts from E.Jan and decals from Tabu design
1/20 Ligier js 17b from Studio 27

About to buy the brabham bt46b form MFH (one my favorite F1's). I also saw the Studio 27 brabham bt46b for sale on this forum, does anybody know what this kit is like?

Lotus 79 (Tamiya) -it was in stock at the LHS
Brabham bt50 (cause I wrecked the paint/body/decals on my first try..time for another batch of Indycals..)
Tami 1/12 312t4- why not?

When I picked this hobby back up about 18 months ago I was amazed at the shelves full of unbuilt kits people posted on this site. Now I have a new, tall bookshelf that is pretty much crammed with styrene future cars...
