WIP: 1/20 Sauber C23

Post by seamus »

Hi guys,

My next build with a big thanks to Sergey (Lezdep) is the Sauber C23 - it will be a conversion from the 1/20 Fujimi Ferrari F2003 GA kit. It will be curbside however in the sale Sergey included the AMC Models Conversion parts set along with some P/E detail sets and of course the beautiful looking Tabu decals to create the Sauber livery. I did have to provide my own mug of tea though :wink:

I am just awaiting delivery of the Studio27 Templated Carbon decal set and then we'll be off and running.

I built the Revell C22 1/24 years ago, so I'm going to watch the WIP tightly. :)

Good luck! Be very careful with the engine and bodywork fitment. I had a ton of problems with this kit and the radiator fitment as well. It was so bad I essentially threw everything but the front wing in the bin.

It's a pity Sean, the WIP would have really interested me.
But the result has turned out very well - respect! :)
