    Agree, the rear view looks way too flat. Almost like a DB4gt.

    Can you be more specific about what is wrong with the proportions of the front and the wheel well sections? I'm not as familiar with the proportions of the P series to judge whether things are correct or not.

    Agree it looks great but still doesn't get the shape right.
    Here's a photo I took last weekend to compare.

    I'm wondering if the discussion of the shape of one specific model could be moved to a separate thread as it is beginning to spoil this one?

    Hiro's next 1/12th kit will be the Williams FW16 in several versions.

    I wonder if this kit is slower to build than any other 2015 F1 kit ;)

    I put in a request to be added to the list for the 1/8 GT40 motor. They responded on Facebook and asked me to email them for official reservation, but I haven't heard back yet. I would love to have one of these.
