It is difficult for me to master it - very long, but the result is worth it.
Yeah, I wish there was a tutorial somewhere (cannot find one) about soldering for total beginners.
I think 1/43 are better assembled by soldering some parts, shame that I have never done it and no idea how to do it and what material/equipment is needed.

Anyway you have done a hell of a job with that Arrows, everything is spot-on, the colours are just fantstic!

To make the scale thickness you need to cut everything.
This was my latest technique adopted for all my kits regardless of scale. I reduce all visible edges to show a much thinner thickness. You don't have to go too far back especially if the inside surface is to be painted black.

Thanks for this reminder.

Really nice work. Looks very good. Studio 27, or anybody, need to kit this car in 1/20.
Gonna look great when it's assembled together.

I tried to photograph the gloss of lacquer - it does not work for me.
Even went outside into the rays of the sun - nothing can be seen on the photo !!!

I made 40 frames - these three are the best.
