Yes guys......BMW Williams FW-24 *detailed*

[willimo]

The Tyrrell looks awesome. I'd've gotten that one if I could find a place to put it. The 1:20 seems pretty simplified, and the molds are fairly heavy since the kit is so old. I got the one that was just reissued, and there are some modern moldings in the kit, it's interesting to see the differences. Thanks for posting the pictures.

Your William is awesome. It inspired me to build one, but I don't think it'll be as detailed as yours. It's just beautiful! This has been a very pleasant progress to follow.

i spent some time on the rims!!!

I take better pics of the rims when they are painted

[fwdfreak]

So perfect! Detail is top-notch!

Very very nice detail on this model, amazing.
What do you guys think of the new Williams, the FW26 with a revolutionary nose/wing that was presented today? Not really sure what to think of it yet but atleast someone is trying something new.

I agree on that, glad to see something different, although I had hoped on something a little less ugly (the FW26 that is, not the model)...

But back to the progress
I finished the seat in the third attempt...



This Progress thread comes to the end soon!!
only the nose and some small things are left now! I sprayed the nose (3rd attempt i hope everything went okay) today!!

I must say that your project is very, very impressive...I only wish I can achieve that kind of expertise some day

When you ordered the kit and all the PE stuff (on your first post, 1st pic ), the CF sheet is huge! I will need 3 or 4 of those (but 1:43 scale) for my next project, but I can only find small A5 sheets. How much did that cost you? Thanks.

Yup, thanks for the great info. I've just made my first order at HLJ (finally...) including the clear version of the FW24. Can't wait to get started but it'll have to wait because first I'm gonna start on the Tyrrell P34 (the 6-wheeler).

Are you refering to the roll next to the kit box? I think that is not a decal, rather CF textured material saint is going to use make a base to present his finished model.
