Thank you all guys, for watching and for positive comments :)
Next up will be the Ferrari F93A and Minardi M193...

I've been giving the F93A body a cleanup, sanding down the mold lines, drilling out the airbox. More updates soon.

The M193 is another nice kit from AMC.

Great work on this one!! I'm looing forward to seeing progress on the Ferrari. Although not the fastest of cars, it's certainly a pretty car with nice lines. The final grid is gonna be very cool. Keep up the good work.
Cheers,
Chris

Could the Ferrari F93 be converted from the F92? Irrelevant to you I know but I've often wondered. That would open the way to using plastic.
Some great work on here, glad to see it back on the board.

I would strongly recommend masking and spraying the white band on the F93....

The kit decals are too short if you put the stripe where it's meant to go, and it looks all wrong if you put it where it fits.... Luckily I had 2 sets of decals...

Great subject and very nice building so far.

You wouldn't happen to have some pics of the B193 engine cowl, I've searched my self silly trying to find pictures of the bumps covering the rear suspension. Apparently these bulges where different to the ones on the 1992 car but for the life of me I can not find any pictures confirming this.

Any help will be appreciated, I'm currently doing the 2 yellow and green Benettons for my Schumi collection.

Looking forward to the F93, They are scarce and built ones even more so!
