Re: Ligier Mugen Honda JS40 BBR 1/43
So far, so good. I have cleaned and primed body, it's 95% done. I will make some minor touch ups before painting body color.
Rims are glued as well as brake air ducts. Some of the parts on the pictures are already primed with clear primer.
Notes on build:
1) Regular Tamiya putty works well
2) Clear and grey primer do their job well
3) Parts are damn small - doubled attention needed, as it is much easier to break them then styrene ones.
4) All parts were cleaned with isopropyl alcohol before priming
5) I am going to prime all of the parts to be sure that paint will not strip off
6) Xuron PE cutter and Tamiya diamond file for PE are irreplaceable
Dry fitted
Front rim
New home for Ligier
Going back to work
