The other day I started the FW14B build or rather rebuild. Every single step, every single nut and bolt will be shown as I travel on this second fw14b journey. So please follow on my home page the link to the build. In-depth discussions around the build how I’m doing it what I’m using. The good the bad and the ugly. Hope you will follow as it’s going to be the most complex build I’ve done yet.

So Top studio have released the latest 1/12 Tamiya additional detail set. The FW14B side pod and ECU kit. Cannot wait to get my hands on this. Hopefully the Engine set by Easter. Awesome kit by the looks of it. Including a much appreciated and needed fuel head system set up. As for price I have no idea. I haven’t seen it advertised on any site so far as this is hours old. So keep your eyes and ears peeled. Set ordered on pre order to be released on the 23/01/21. £48 inc carriage to the UK. Cannot wait

The end is near for the 126 C2

Still a few bits to sort out. Mainly the tyres front end and the cowling and a few engine details.

Prior to assembling the whole rear end we fitted the rear wing. Considering this is a Revell kit And my daughter has been doing a lot of work on it I’m really happy.

Due to so much interest in the F2002 I’ve decided to get back to it this year. Once the 126 C2 and the mo4/6 are finished I’ll get back to it as soon as I can.

Please be patient as this will get finished and hopefully this year.

Ferrari 126 C2 Revell Update

The Revell kit is going well. Above are two images of what stage I’m at. The main components are not glued down as of yet they are purely assembled for gauging whether everything is fitting correctly. There is still quite a bit to do. Rear axles, more engine detail, wheels and tyres, brakes and discs all round and the main cowling. Please keep an eye on the wip. I’m not going into mega detail on this build in terms of what I’m doing as my daughter is involved so it’s mainly just a bit of fun with some extra detailing. Hope you enjoy. After this I will get back to the mp4/6 fujimi 1/20.
