Re: Tyrrell 019 scale 1:20 conversion

Oh yeah! Now its looking like a Tyrell. The overspray will polish out without a problem at all. You might be surprised at how little amount of compound and polishing is required to tidy things up. Happens to me also.
Enjoy the rest of the build. Cheers. Tim

BAR Honda 007 (2005 Japan GP)

Hi all, I have recently started this Studio 27 BAR Honda 007 (2005 Japan GP). I always liked the Lucky Strike livery, and have always liked Jenson, so seemed like an obvious choice. In hindsight, an earlier car with less complex aero bits might have been a better choice, but anyway....nothing like c...

Re: Share some advice on how to remove decals

If they are not clear coated you could try some low tack tape like Tamiya etc. Place a length of tape over the decal, press it down, and peel off.

Re: Help please - S27 BAR 007 Japan GP

Re: Help please - S27 BAR 007 Japan GP

Thanks TvD. That solves 17. Looking at if now it makes a lot of logic. It gives me something to loop the belt through the buckle now. This is the first full multimedia and S27 kit I have built. I have learnt quite quickly that the instructions are vague and incomplete and you are on your own to figu...

Re: Help please - S27 BAR 007 Japan GP

I don`t have that kit, but in my opinion 17 looks like seat belt mounting brackets to the rear of the cockpit. 21 and 22 maybe flaps for the outside of the front wing? Here are 2 links, maybe they can help you. http://www.museumcollection.co.jp/gallery/auto/tyrrel/bar007.htm http://www.museumcollec...
