Very Very nice. That's going to be a great looking kit when your done. I have the same one in the stash. Makes want to break it out and start working on it. What brand of paint did you use for the red? Keep the pictures coming.

Great work so far James.
I have never build a Fujimi kit. What are they like to build?

Very nice, clean build.

I find it interesting that you seem to be applying the decals to the components of the subassemblies as you're working.

Looking forward to seeing more

got the engine and rear suspension on. didnt do any detailing or anything i like to display my F1 cars with the body work on so i treat them all as curbside.





the body is glued on now, not much left to do now, just the mirrors, windscreen front suspension and rear wing and exhaust pipes and brake ducts, should be completed next week!

@ Todd,
the red paint is Krylon Fusion

@ Jesper,
this is my first Fujimi kit !, it is really great equal if not better than tamiya!
