Just a few progress pics...1/12 scale F1

After a lot of reading (here on the board/on the net) and a lot of time and $$$ spent here are a few progress pics of the project I'm currently working on. It's a 1/12 th scale "Williams 14B" F1. The engine is not quite complete yet but will be in a few days. I am new to the hobby and still have tons to learn.

Looks great !!! I really like this 1/12 scale. It gives so much room for details and it even looks autentic at a closer view. Keep it up and be carefull with paint thinners.

Very nice. Good to see someone else doing F1 models, I was beginning to think I was the only one. Working on a Viper at the moment, but I mostly do F1. Before this Viper I made the 1/24 Tamiya Braun Tyrrell Honda 020 which was my first Tamiya F1 after 3 Revell F1's.

Integra818....The manifolds you're referring to is on the Jordon F1 that I was working on until I destroyed the shell. I followed the Tamiya color code, mixed the paints, and that's the color I got. The 1/12 th scale exhaust manifolds will look much better when I get done with it.

Thesaint111.....I purchased it on Ebay. The total cost shipped to California from Canada was $90. By the way, the Enzo is looking sweet!!! That is probably going to be the next kit I purchase. I may have to pm you for some building tips .
