Hi,
Can anyone help me? I'm currently building a Honda F-1RA 272 (Slowly.. LOL) and I've come across some great ref: pictures.
However looking at the pictures, and the Tamiya Build Guide, it is easy to see that the Tamiya Paint guide is off, and also if you look at this picture -
I can easily paint the parts the correct colours, even the wheels look Magnesium, easily fixed - Alclad II will sort that out. Even the engine block I can do with Alclad II pale gold.
But, the fuel lines look a little harder to replicate. Been searching for hours now, but I need something that will make the lines like those in the picture. There has to be something I can do. Anyone have any ideas? I tried light gold painted wires, clear orange, clear yellow, nothing comes close.. Can I buy clear wire, and then paint that clear yellow, as if I paint a clear sprue clear yellow it is perfect..
I perfer not the heat up clear sprue to make wires.. I won't be able to bend them all correctly, so any other ideas?
Many thanks..
