Tyrrell 020

December 30, 2017 · in Automotive · · 26 · 3.2K

Tyrrell 020, kit, very simple, painted with Tamiya spray cans and acrylics/Humbrol enamel.

I added little detail, photo-etched bolts and nuts, Studio27 seatbels, wires, cables and some foil to replicate the heat shield in engine compartment.

I hope you like it.

  1. Not exactly the most successful of Formula One cars, or even the most successful Tyrrell, I expect Tamiya issued this kit because of the Honda connection, but, nevertheless, it makes a great model, and you have lifted the standard with your extra detailing and presentation. Thanks for sharing.
