    McLaren Mercedes MP4/12

    Finally after months of not close to a year she's finished. Done as David Coulthards car.


    Lots of little things I'm not happy with but its all experience to take to the next one.


    Took a lot longer as half way through I wasn't happy with the paint so swapped to zero paints and the difference was amazing.


    First time I've managed to get the transfers on properly thanks to micro set and micro sol.


    Thanks for looking

        Good work, it's great when the decals work and the microsol is good stuff. Did you clear over the decals?


        I like zero paints, you get a fantastic finish and they are so easy to use. I get a sore throat if I open them without my mask on. Time for a better filter as well. They are good but also pretty dodgy.


        Congratulations on reaching a new height with your building.

                  NIce work mate. I would be happy of that build if I were you-certainly nothing to criticize from an aircraft modeller's view here

                        Thanks guys. I've now fixed the number 10 decal on the front.


                        I'm not happy with the glue marks and the nose decal but that was very hard.


                        I'm very happy with the outcome anyway


                        Again thanks for all the comments. It's really appreciated
