Completed : Tamiya 1:20 McLaren M23 (James Hunt - 1976 WK)
It finally finished. At last. I started building it on february 19th, and today it's finished. Just under 3 months work. I'm pretty pleased with the result, although it has a few flaws. But hey, which model hasn't? At least my models are never perfect
 Oh yes, the WIP-thread is here. Here are the pictures : 20 in total. Enjoy! First a series with "dressed up" McLarens :      Another 5 dressed-up McLarens, under a different angle:      Without the bodywork the McLaren looks like this (and that's how it will be presented at shows and contests):      And yet another photo-angle:      Questions? Comments? Shoot

Simply amazing work, Guy !
 It was already a pleasure following your WIP  opcorn:, but the final pictures are really jaw-dropping.I sincerely hope that you'll show this model in Nieuwegein later this year. I'd love to see it up close.  I wish I could finish a model in 3 months with this much detail (oh, and go to work, and mow the lawn, and do some shopping, etc...). I really need more hours in a day...

To be honest, this was a model that I never intended to be detailled this far. I just wanted to build it straith from the box, but when I saw the flaws of the kit I started to correct them. It kinda happened without me noticing that I was going this far. It got outta hand, and look where it brought me

Beautiful job Guy - you just need a pack of James' favourite cigs on the side pod!

Excellent build Guy. You should be very proud of yourself on this one. F1 subjects are my favorite.
