Tamiya 1/20 McLaren MP4/8
One McLaren down, four to go.
It took me much more time than I was expecting to finish it, but it turned out a great looking model.
The MP4/8 with is pure lines is for me one of the most beautiful F1 cars of all the time, and fighting with the much more competitive Williams-Renault it achieved 5 wins by the hands of Ayrton Senna in the 93 season.
Hope you like it.

Right now I'm working almost exclusively on the Honda F1.
It's a nice model and rather easy to build.
After building so many models with so many decals is nice to build this one.

Hummmm, I don’t think so
I only have build one so far and I have much to learn.
However the fact of seeing so many of you making lovely road sport cars have open my appetite.
