I saw this one at Nieuwegein and it's a deserved Gold winner.

That's one unreal build. Very impressive. So many little details, so perfectly executed.
600 hours of building? Time well spend I'd say.

Re: McLaren MP4/8 - GP Of Australia 1993 - A. Senna - Tamiya - 1/20

Hello Sir,

AWESOME Job on the Marlboro McLaren MP4/8. I would like to know if you would build one for me please with Michael Andretti's number 7 on it please. I'm a BIG fan of F! and of Michael Andretti and McLaren. I live near Michael Mario and Marco Andretti. They live in Nazareth, PA and I live in Easton, PA just a couple of miles away. I always wanted this car done Superdetailed. I would greatly appreciate if you would do this for me please. I'm now disabled in my hands and can no longer build models. Please let me know how much you want for your time and approximately how long it will take to build the model. Please let me know at your earliest convenience. I hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you Sir,
Robby

The only thing missing is the smell of high-octane gasoline. What material did you use for the harness? The weave looks really convincing in this scale.

The material used is 'Scale Weave' by Tenco Proto. It's a very thin and light weight material with a very fine structure. I attached it to a very thin layer of lead so it could be bent and remain in position.

The same material has been used on the inside of the cowl so simulate the rough structure of the CF.
