The F10 Ferrari is also among the planned releases, at least according to the RoG site a few weeks back...

So all in all good news for F1 builders ... I'll be curious to see how builders tackle the "chrome" finish on the McLarens.

Welcome back, Nate!

Good to see you back, it's been about 4 years? What are you building these days?

Ha! I was discovered in this forum!

Mainly cars. I've posted a pair on here in the last 2 weeks (Porsche 956 and DTM Audi A4).

Some of the first stuff I've finished in 5 or 6 years. Lots of stuff started, nothing finished.

I found it weird that RoG produced the Brawn car with markings for both drivers, and is doing the Ferrari with markings for both drivers, but when it comes to the McLaren....they produced a separate kit for each driver.

Same car...why not just produce one kit with markings for both drivers like the other 2 cars? Seems redundant to me.

The Chrome shouldn't be too bad....but I can see a full bottle of Alclad chrome going into one car!
