Really nice build. Very clean and precise. The figure adds a lot to the model as well. To insert a link to the progress thread, simply copy and paste the url from your W.I.P page. Like below. You can also name it and make it clickable. Enter it like I have done in the first example, but do not put the 2 stars. I only put them so you could see how to enter it. Once the stars are gone it will appear like the other one below it, as a name to click. Hope this makes sense..??

Nice looking build, very cleanly done. Great to see a figure as well, i do like them added from time to time.

Greenhill, did you fabricate the end plates for the rear wing or are they kit pieces? Excellent build!!!!

End plates are from the kit, no aftermarket parts, only the decals.

Hello,

I’ve done this kit some years ago, and I’m thinking to rebuilt it, I saw that you didn’t forget the head rest detail, the car is very nice and I like the driver too, all is very clean 8) .

Cheers

Franck
