This is Tamiya's 1/20 scale Ferrari F1 89 early version. What a great kit! Detail is fantastic and fit is above standard.Construction was out-of-the-box except for the radiator cooling lines that were done using plastic rod from evergreen products. With so much detail, i decided to display my Ferrari open as if it was in the boxes waiting for the mechanics. I hope you like.

This is Tamiya's 1/12 scale Honda RC211V model 2006. What a great kit! Detail is fantastic and fit is above standard. Working with several shades o metallic colors made the kit very interesting. Casey Stoner's racing colors added an extraordinary look at the finished model. The only difficulty i had was trimming the decals to fit over the angles of the frame. Lots of setting solution were needed, something i think would make this fantastic kit unfit for the beginner but certainly a pleasure for the average modeler!
