Hi,

Nice to see this WIP back on the bench!
I love the car and really enjoy your build.
This will surely be of some help for me as I’m currently trying to build a 1/20 Tamiya 99T.
This is a kit I’d love to have and hesitate too much to buy it or the Ferrari F1 88…

Can’t wait to see more!

Do you post pictures of this build? Would be great to see what your doing on that, reminds me all the time to get back to my own build.
Take a stand!

Crazy how long this one has been around, got to start finishing these older ones

Well here goes, transmission was taken out and mostly finished, again mix of tamiya TS paints, and various metalizers to achieve these affects, most of this is all kit parts

Image

Next starting adding details to the engine, will start picking out some of the bolt heads and add the Honda naming, etc.

Image

Next moved to the tub, finished adding the rivets over the carbon fiber and got the seat and interior finished, started the wiring, the side pods are just loosely attached checking final fitment

Image

Image

Image

And then a test fit of all the major assemblies, engine / turbos will be next and some more CF decaling etc.

More to come


In the works:

1/12 641/2
1/12 643
1/12 Daytona Cobra
1/12 MP4/5
1/12 Meng MP4/4
1/9 NR500
