Making of – Williams FW-11 Honda F-1 (*Progress pics*)
Time to build another F1 car. This time it will be the Williams FW-11 from the 1986 season and I will do the version of one of my favorite F1 drivers, Nigel Mansell.
 Body is already painted in two colors, TS-16 (Yellow) and TS-26 (Pure White) and we not need to be to precise since the transaction between the two colors will be made with a dark blue decal all around. More progress pics to come.

Hi Gains,
Looking good so far....this is a little freaky though, when u build the Ferrari u build it as Irvines (the same plan I had, and yes im still building it)....now I bought that same kit years and years ago, found it in the attic covered in dust and all sorts and have put it aside for another days work but I will have to look for a new set of decals cause the ones I have, are gone bad I left the box open in the attic and of course are gone to bits as are the ones I used on the car. Anyway best of luck with it, I cant remeber anything about it when i started to build it but certainly didnt have any complaints...oh by the way I was in the process of building it as Mansells car aswell. Dublin

Another cool project from the ever prolific Nuno!
A classic machine from a classic era of F1. Turbos, huge wings, wide track, slick tyres... sigh...

I look forward to watching your progress on this kit Nuno, I have the FW-13B(I think
 ) to build and it bears the same color scheme.Your paint is looking good as always  Ray

Don’t even remind me that Chris.
 Finished yesterday the placement of the blue decals around the body.  Chose a day that you feel really inspired and with lots of patience since this is a tedious work and will define the good conclusion of this model. I also have build the FW-13B that have a identical color scheme as Ray maintained and I found the FW-11 much harder since we have to mold this huge decals around the curvy areas where the front suspension enter.

Mansell’s Red Five is starting to look something.
 Front section is coming fine. For those how need to do some repair on the blue decals our want to paint some area that was not correctly covert by the decal you can use Tamiya TS-15 (Blue) since it is a perfect color match for the decal. Next step it’s the front suspension that is a block build separately that will fit in that open space of the monocoque. I’m curious to see if it will fit well
