Lookin' good!
Nice to see the GB is still moving along. I should really get my act together and start my own GB kit.

wip FW13B group build

Post by garymc »

Things are starting to move along faster as most of the decaling is finished,was able to get the front suspension pretty well completed and the monocouqe glued to the undertray.Wiring and plumbing next,not to sure on how much to add as do not have many pictures of the eng/trans.

Excellent! the second last picture in particular looks extremely realistic!!

I love seeing these older kits being built again. The improvements in carbon decals and other detailing products in recent years has opened a whole range of options to improve the appearance of what are still very well detailed models.
