You are getting near the finish line on this. So much to take in every time I scan the latest updates. I will be sad to see it end.

 Wonderful work! That looks excellent. Thanks Kyle You are getting near the finish line on this. So much to take in every time I scan the latest updates. I will be sad to see it end. Thanks Brent. I know it has to end, but there will be more MFH kits being built in the near future. It might not be a big step forward, but I got the cockpit finished. And since I no longer need to pick up the engine, I put the injector screens on.    2061 |

 Cockpit looks awesome and the engine looks like the real deal with the screens on it. Getting closer now!! Thanks Kyle I was hoping to have this done for the contest coming up this weekend. But the nose piece was fighting with me. When I took off the masking on the blue, it peeled some of the paint off. But today I was successful in getting that corrected. So tonight it gets the decals placed on it.  The other thing driving me nuts was trying to get the rear wing on. It seemed as if I was going to need three pair of hands to hold everything in place. But I was finally able to get past that hurtle.     2167 |

The wing looks like it has a few connecting points that would be a chore to get in place at the same time. It looks fantastic! I hope the nose goes on without a battle

The wing was quite the battle, but I won that one. The nose on the other hand is not co-operating as much. But it will be displayed at contests with it off. Man that looks incredible already!! Great work on fixing the nose. That is a very nice recovery. Thanks Kyle. I was very nervous pulling the tape off of the blue. This is so fun to watch. You are doing a great job on what appears to be a fantastic model. Thank you John. You have no idea how awesome MFH kits are. They're all I want to build anymore. I would like to thank everyone who followed along on this build, whether you replied or not. Here are my finished build photos.          2247 |

The details that these larger scale F1 cars have in them is nothing short of mind blowing and you've done a great job in putting this all together. I really get a charge out of the engines that are in these cars in real life and then again in scale as there is just so much to see. Beautiful work on this and thank you for taking on us on this journey through its construction.  |

It was fun to watch. Wow, what a finish, awesome! Thank you everyone for your generous compliments. I had a great time at the model show meeting old friends and making new ones. But the contest was a train wreck. You would have thought this was their first contest, not the 20th. Their computer crashed and they only gave out half of the awards because they didn't know what the placings were. I did manage to take 2nd and 3rd in large scale. The Tyrrell came in third, being beat out by my Ferrari 333SP in second. |

I've been to a couple of contests where I was a bit surprised at the way they were run and it was evident that there was little to no planning/ logistics in getting everything set up. |
