Re: Ligier Mugen Honda JS40 BBR 1/43

After a long, long brake I have made some progress...

I have painted body with Tamiya Royal Blue according to manual. It came out a bit too dark IMHO but I decided to leave as it is.

Suspension is painted as well. So I hope that I will make more progress (and pics) soon.

Some other hints and thoughts from my build:

1) It is better to drill 0,7 mm holes for suspension instead of 0,6 suggested in manual. It is much easier to mount suspension...
2) Decals are very good - they lay down easy with Gunze Setter/Softer
3) 5 minute Epoxy sticks better than CA even though I cleaned up all parts with sand paper and IPA


That's it for the moment, here come some pics:
