    Thanks for posting the pics from F1m. This Way Up are doing some great 1970's F1 subjects. You have a great thread going here that I checkout on a weekly basis for interesting kit updates.

    I'd like to post some pics of the Monaco BT33 built version from TWU's website, but don't seem to be able to. Maybe because I don't have any posts here?

    Thanks Jaymtford. Here are some photos from the website. Very nice looking 1/43rd scale models!! The second car is Kit # TWU046, the Surtees TS16/4 from the 1975 Spanish GP.

    Here is the link for all their 1/43rd models. Those BRM models look most welcome. They are located in South Africa.

    A few more 1/24th Ferrari road cars coming soon from Airtrax in a few months. Stay tuned.
    Also a side shot of the Eagle TG1's Hiro is doing in 1/20th scale including the 1967 Spa car.

    One has already been mentioned before.


    I see Studio 27 are doing a transkit for the Tyrrell P34 Monaco 1977 in 1/12th scale.
    Still can't figure out why Ejan/Hiro did the 643 in 1/12th. The car was not very good.
    I bet it was because Rosso did it years ago in 1/8th.

    Thanks! I'm still convinced I will be re-doing the rear cover and replacing the roof on mine.

    I has the same idea to replace the roof but I never didn't imagine to re-make the rear cover...
    Do you plan to publish anywhere this work?
    With best regards

    Sure, it will be on Italianhorses one day....
    The rear cover is incorrect, and there are few other small things (like rear bumper, front fenders, etc) that need some minor re-shaping. Like I said before, its a good base kit, but needs some work. Good thing I picked up a spare Fujimi TR couple of weeks ago!

    There is something that looks wrong about both Ferraris, not sure what.
    I think wheels are off on both, 330 has fronts that are too small, TdF has ones that are too big! TdF is sitting way too low. Front end on 330 looks a bit off too. Need to get hte kits to make measurements... Overall, TdF looks good. 330 - not sure.

    You're sure it's the Doran and not the wider Matech version?

    You could be right since its hard to tell, but either version would be good. Strange choice for a plastic model, but I like it.
