Re: Rain Tires

I'm not buying from that austrian guy, but i am interested in 1970 lotus 72 tires.. So anyone? Richard That`s some kind of problem, not all want the same tires for the same car, that`s surely a reason why it will simply take time. I`ve seen a couple of guys with 3D printeres doing such stuff for di...

Re: PLASTIC Upcoming F1 Releases 2024

Right, announced longer ago, but the Beemax will cover the early version of that car with high Turbo intakes on the side pods, the Meng is the later version with the turbo intakes inside of the sidepods, so some differences are there.

Re: Rain Tires

Get rid of the idea buying from this guy, simply bad casted resin copies.

Re: New detail Sets for Italeri MP 4/2c coming up

I agree, the brake sets in 1:20 are fantastic, but this set in 1:12 is on another level, amazing work Thomas! :) It is great that now matching wheels for this kit are available, including the lettering on the tires, the kit parts are simply wrong in their size.

Then test if it touches the TS. White spirit is also quiet often used by airplane modelers, but...
