Nice work Del-R, hope I can do such a good work as yours.
Two questions, did you used the decals or painted it with fluorescent red (TS-36)? And why didn’t you use the Marlboro decals?

I used TS36 and had no problems with it, you know me with decals.. if I can avoid them I will!
 I didnt think any of the later issued Tamiya McLarens had the Marlboro decals, not sure about the first issue ones, does yours have the marlboro decals or did you buy some?

Del-R - did you use the TS-36 over White? In real life, would you say the red is more of an orange red or a reddish red? Does it shine alot? Thanks!

Yes I first sprayed TS-26 (pure white) then I masked off and sprayed TS-36 (after the white had cured). I was a bit worried of it going all wrong but it came out quite nicely after a few finish coats for Tamiya clear.
Yes its a very bright orange red (just like it is on the can) and it shines just as much as any other TS-gloss.

yeah, I'll order another one as soon as I am done with the models I have now, besides, I built that one like 2 years ago when I sucked. Now, I am better so I will also paint it. I am got a few cars to finish before I order some more.

I’m making the colour of the MP4/8 with the decals, only using TS-36 to correct some decal imperfection.
For sure it will not have such a good finish as if it was all painted with TS-36, but till now I like the result. Ho, I understand. The late Tamiya releases of the MP4/4 don’t have the Marlboro decals. I have the first release of the kit, and at that time they gave us the opportunity to chose between Marlboro and non-Marlboro decals. To bad they don’t continue with that policy. Not putting any tobacco publicity in the box but inside having the tobacco decals, giving the buyer the choice to decide.

Are you close to finishing it yet Gainsbourg?
Yes its a shame they dont supply the marlboro decals anymore, but I have now ordered some after market Marlboro decals for my MP4/5b, MP4/8 and Ferrari F1 2001 (when I get round to building them)
