Hi Starr

Amazing work! I just checked your WIP and it's building up to a beuatiful model
I got to put my hands on a FW07...

Thanks for sharing
Kind regards

And so does your white / green masking on the rear cowl. Looks good up close. Much better than my masking went on the car, back when I built it.

Cheers,
Chris

Thanks everyone for your kindly words, it's greatly appreciated.

Yes Chris, those are fishing line that I painted with Tamiya clear yellow. I had to buy two different sizes because I wasn't sure with one would be the best in scale, but it's fine because both were on clearance

As for the masking, please don't look too close

I hope will have another update by the weekend, stay tuned

Starr

He I am back with another update:

I used bare metal foil to simulate the heat shield on the rear wing support



And also married the engine & transmission with the rest of the car





Getting close to the final laps

Thanks for watching and comments.

Till next time.

Looking really good. This is going to look fantastic when you finish up.

Very,very nice. Looks great

Sweet - the FW07 is such a great car.

Thanks everyone for your compliments.

It's time for the last update before this model cross the line under the checkered flag

The skirts are installed (glued)



As the front bodywork, that's not glued.



I would like to thanks everyone who followed this w.i.p. and left comments, tips and compliments and Indycals for the decals.

Pictures of the complete model will be in the appropriate forum (or the link below)
