Talking Finished BMW WILLIAMS

It is not the best job, but it is the best I could do on this one with my given knowledge. I will say I had fun building this one cause it was alittle more difficult than I expected especially with the painting, but again a superb job of detail by tamiya. They leave little nipples everywhere for you to a tubes for hoses or even wire. Maybe later I will add that one. I don't think I will be doing a F1 car again for a long time being that this was my first, but not last. Here are my fuzzy pics for those who are familiar with my terrible camera. Please leave you thoughts in all honesty. Thanks guys and a special thanks to Thesaint111 for the encouragement!

You say it should be blue, hummm, those instructions were getting me all confused because I was trying to paint everything blue that I needed blue at one time.

Oh....and yeah I had to finish with the old testors glue. It wasn't too bad it just takes alittle getting use too. What glue do you guys recommend. There must be something easier to handle than testors.

Testor or Humbrol CLEAR glue (it's a small bottle and it's liquid.. the glue you use right now is the easyest way to scrap a model... don't use at all cost !

What he said, for clear parts like windows or lights I use PVA glue or even pure wood-glue cuz it dries perfectly clear without fogging.

Nice job btw, makes me wanna go drive at 200 mph to my local hobby shop and get me one too.

I primarily use the clear testors for the windows and glass representing parts and I use the regular for the other parts. Very seldom do I use crazy glue unless I am doing a resin kit. Thanks Guys

I just can’t wait to put my hands on this one. It looks marvellous.
Apart from that white that should be blue (happens to the best, sometimes the instructions are not so clear) I think you have done a great job. Damn, those disk breaks look fantastic!

>What glue do you guys recommend.

I use four types of glue. My standard glue is Revell’s Contact Professional, liquid glue.
I sometimes use Super Glue for some parts that need a strong connection.
For the windows I use white wood glue. And finally for the optics I use a bit of Tamiya Clear (X-22)
