Brabham BT52B 1/20 Aoshima/Beemax

Post by Shiiya »

Hi , Guys

Despite some issues in the end I am really satisfied with the result , one problem I faced was the exhaust pipe , it was really tricky to put all eleven parts correct together , I failed to do so and it didn´t slot in well and i didn´t fix it :( , fortunately after assembled it is not noticeable in a first look , another annoying issue was my overpolishing that made me to repaint and revarnish again . About the kit I painted with Tamiya TS15 blue (navy blue ) for me match with Brabham car better .

How much trouble was the white nose decal? You got a great result.

Lovely build! I don't think I've yet seen one of these built up. Despite the issues you described, the paintwork came out impeccably.
