ST 27 Williams FW26
I finally got my hands on the FW26. I know its ugly, but it is unique. I got the legality plank done this morning, as well as the body primed. I will try and get the undertray CF'd today.

No, not ugly. The nose is just personal. Pity it didn't work as planned. But maybe next year, who knows...

Re: ST 27 Williams FW26
I agree a very cool subject and not 'ugly' just different, something that will stand out on the shelf when complete.Look forward to seeing this progress.

Re: ST 27 Williams FW26
nice to see someone doing this car!
I also think that it was not an ugly car, just different, and I always liked the people who is trying to do new things to advance even they are not following the standards.....
I'll follow this post with interest!

Re: ST 27 Williams FW26
despite what popular opinion says, this car was beautiful. I saw it at Melbourne and it was the best looking car there... Always been keen to build this one =) Keep up the good work

Re: ST 27 Williams FW26
well the cars from the 70's are not really beautiful but interesting, guess that's why they are such a great subject for modeling.
looking forward to your build.

Re: ST 27 Williams FW26
I got the majority of the undertray CF'd. I still need to do the top, and the lower rear section. I ordered the Performance Blue paint from Hiroboy, so I should see that in a couple of weeks. I will try and get the Suspension pieces shot black today, and maybe CF'd.
I got the suspension arms painted tonight, and I have been tinkering with the settings on my camera. This picture looks much better.
