It's been a while since I posted something in my buil of the Williams FW42. Well it hasn't died...  The nose-section is done:   The body-section, with the difficult halo, is done too:  And the already bottom/floor-section:  Make together this:   And the it's time to do the (rear-)suspension. Starting with the brakes. I did not use the tabs but made a butt-joint instead. Makes nicer rounded curves... First mark the topdirection on the discs, before cutting!  Then add a strip of papaer with the same width. Length is not important.  Form a cilinder and there is a hardly visible seam. Then the disc can be set in the right directions, using the markings:  And all parts together make this pair:  As is visisble I often use the butt-joint at small parts. And all installed:  |

Continued building my model of the FW42 and finished these groups: Rearwing  Frontwing  Which made me having to use the smallest parts I ever did!  But they came out fine, I think, considering my model is enlarged from A4 to A3, say at 141%... I wonder how the 1/24-builders did that! Bargeboards  Here also some very small parts and all together a complex construction showing clearly the complexitiy of the nowadays F1-cars aeropack. |

Nice Robert,
One you have to print on glossy paper...
Also nice to see it along the RB-9 and Ferrari in your album.

Looks absolutely stunning!! Cars during the naturally aspirated transition era were very interesting to look at. |
