Progress on the 1/8 scale James Hunt McLaren

by Rick Schad on November 4, 2024 · in Automotive · 6 ≡

I don't normally post pics of building progress, but this particular kit has been a complete nightmare. This kit is from 1972 and is by the defunct company Entex, from horrible instructions to terrible fit and everything in between it has [...]

Tamiya Ferrari 641/2 F190 # 12030 1:12

by Cricket on August 9, 2024 · in Automotive · 15 ≡

I did this about 2 years ago, not my best build but I enjoyed it. The tires were a mess all hardened and shrunk up. The seller had no interest in back up his sale and he was in Japan so. Really had no recourse. I found some other tires, [...]

Ebbro 1/20 Tyrrell 002 – Silverstone 1971

by Alistair Gauld on July 14, 2024 · in Automotive · 10 ≡

This one has been built for my boss, who is a major petrol-head. He asked if I could build him a Cevert Tyrrell and as this was lying about I said I would. He just wanted it built out of the box so that was done with the addition of some [...]

1/12 scale Renault F1 car kit by Tamiya

by Rick Schad on July 10, 2024 · in Automotive · 16 ≡

Well here is another completed build. A Renault in 1/12 scale. Don’t let the packaging fool you, these are vintage Tamiya kits with some pathetic photoetched thrown in. Beware that these kits were manufactured before the computer age and [...]

Alfa Romeo 179C

by George Williams on August 4, 2023 · in Automotive · 29 ≡

I love Italian cars and motorcycles, and Alfa Romeo somehow seem to be the most Italian of the manufacturers. This is the Italeri 1/12 kit for the Alfa Romeo 179/179C Formula One car, entered for the 1979 to 1982 seasons. The kit was [...]

F1 drivers from the past

by Manuel Magrinho on May 17, 2023 · in Figures · 13 ≡

This batch of 5 F1 drivers in 1/18 scale was a comissioned chalenge 😀 Although not particulary F1 fan myself, I must confess that I really enjoyed painting them. Hope you like too, And know, without further delays, lets meet: Juan [...]

Tamiya 12th scale Brabham BT44

by Robert Aspinall on April 14, 2023 · in Automotive · 6 ≡

My latest project the Brabham BT44. I picked this up wen it was reissued a couple of years ago. It's an old kit and in need of some enhancements. I've made some parts from alloy turned up in an old watch makers lathe or using simple hand [...]

Lotus 49 MFH 1/12th scale.

by Robert Aspinall on January 9, 2023 · in Automotive · 29 ≡

I was fortunate enough to get the chance to build one of these incredible kits. It wasn't without its challenges though. The decals especially those around the nose cone were difficult to apply being thick and the wrong shape. In the end I [...]

Tamiya 1/20 F1 SF70H

by George Williams on October 20, 2022 · in Automotive · 18 ≡

This is, of course, a Ferrari, in fact it was the Scuderia’s 2017 entry in the Formula One World Championship. Tamiya released this 1/20 scale kit in 2018, and so far, it’s their last F1 kit apart from a couple of re-releases from [...]
