Tameo MP4/6

Post by 43rdMichael »

Another older build, but sharing for interest.

32 year old kit, hand mastered by Luca Tameo.
I really enjoy these older kits. Simple projects, but they build up nicely.

Painted with zero.

Great job once more!
I'm envious of the finish on your builds. I'm struggling with the whole clearcoat/sanding/polishing step, especially in 1/43.

Thank you Jaykay.
Your 191 is probably my favourite F1 model. All time.
That includes the clear coat / finish….

Wow!
What a build!
I like Tameo kits from that era as well, especially after 1991 or so when the rear wing started to be designed with separate horizontal elements and left and right front suspension were separated so the the bodywork had no more ungainly cuts at the bottom.

The MP4/6 looks very nice.

The paint job is excellent. It does not look to have extra thick paint or clear coat on top. Great!
