That bike's really coming together. The Marlboro red really does pop against the white and makes a really attractive scheme. Kenny himself looks really great and will really finish this build off.


Looking forward to the next instalment.


Cheers

99% done,just decals to do on the other side,i allways like stuff to dry/harden off,so i will decal up the other side tomorrow,the purists may see there is no silver edge on the wheels,the tamiya instructions say this model is based on the san marino gp of 1983,looking through my reference books the wheels were all red for that grand prix,however for qualifing the front wheel was gold,but no silver edging on the wheels,so it is accurate,its amazing the subtle differences of markings throughout all the gp's[ATTACH]120337.IPB[/ATTACH]
