Honda F1 - RA272

After finished my MP4/4, it is my latest finished model - 1/20 Tamiya Honda F1 - RA272.
I started this project at the mid of October. More pictures will come later tonight and I hope you enjoy

The kit is not bad especially the clear engine cowl which is thin and looks realistic. The fitment is good as well.
I just thought since it is a famous Japanese car that won the Mexican G.P. in 60s, Tamiya put much more effort to make good this kit.

Re: Honda F1 - RA272

This is looking great.
I have this kit also, but I'm still looking for decent pictures of the engine. Details about the tubing, etc.. Where did you get them?

Re: Honda F1 - RA272

Thanks for the extra pics. I see some machined parts and possibly some photoetch, whose detail kit did you use?

Superb build. Love the glass plinth too.

Your kit is dripping in bling... is it home-made bling or shop-bought bling
