Honda RA272
My first Race Car

Scale:
1:20
Status:
Completed
Started:

Time spent:
30 hrs

I built the Tamiya Honda RA272 for my first F1 and indeed, first race car. I worked my way through sanding/scraping, building subassemblies and adding scratch-built details along the way, priming and paint, and final assembly. I have to tip my hat to Peter L. who's scratch building inspired mine. (PeterL2) I try polishing the finish for the first time with Tamiya compounds and new polishing tools. Then pull it all together. Just another awesome kit from Tamiya!
