McLaren Honda MP4/7

[N96HBK]

Hi all!!

I recently found this forum, and as a big Senna fan, I decided to join and share some of my builds (and designs) here. And I think this is a good place to ask some questions about certain kits, too. 

I designed this McLaren some time ago, which is my first F1 model I designed myself. I thought it would be a good idea to share this model here as well, mostly in order to get some advice from the specialists. This model started as a simple sketch using inkscape, but I wasn't able to use any 3D software, so I just kept drawing until the parts fitted together. The wheels took a long time in particular. I just eyeballed the whole model, so it does look a bit different to the real thing.
Anyway, here's the model in two liveries, including instructions. Please let me know if the downloads are unavailable. Enjoy!!

Hey there! Welcome to the forum. Unfortunately it seems like not many people are around anymore. This car is awesome though! Thank you for sharing it. I'm not sure if I'll make it, but still it's a lovely picture to see.

Thank you!! I've been following a few threads unregistered, and it really does seem like a lot of activity has decreased. But I'm glad that there are still a lot of active talented designers like you around. I saw the Alonso models, and I love them! I'd love to learn some techniques in designing models.

Thanks a lot! Much appreciated . I'm definitely not the best modeler around here but if there are some small things I can help you with, I'll gladly do so.
