Tamiya 1/12 FW14B

Post by okazaki0511 »

Hello, this is my first time to post my model with here.

I used Tamiya's model with Top Studio set. About the cable, rivet, and clamping band, I prefer to use MFH's product.

Here is the progress so far.

Update some progress.

The cockpit painting was finished, just wait a sunny day for the clear spray. I sharpened some corner and adjusted the thickness to make sure it looks like a real car. Also used a lot of carbon decals to improve the realism.

Update some progress.

I made some modifications on the sidepod. I used the plastic plate to make some pattern and used paint thickness to achieve the gap of trench on the sidepod.

Also polished the matt clear paint to hide the gap of carbon decals.

Finally, I added a lot of parts and cables on it.

Update some progress.
There is dotted line on the carbon fiber in the specific area. I used some clear pictures and model to calculate the pitch. And asked someone to help to print it. The result looks good to me.

The cockpit almost finished, which will wax before assembly.

Update some progress.

The ECU was finished. I used transplanted plastic to make the cover of header, which is satisfying for me.

Update some progress.

The front dampers and chassis front bulkhead were finished. The space of electric connector is too small, very hard to install the wires.

Hi,

AMAZING!
Simply jaw dropping work and modeling skills!
The white doted clines on carbon add a spectacular result.
BRAVO!!
