Sometimes it’s better to paint the livery on a model car instead of using the kit’s decals. This vid shows an example of using the …
This is how I built Tamiya’s 1:24 scale plastic kit of the 1989 Sauber Mercedes C9. I built it as the Le Mans winner and used various techniques to dirty the car up, plus add damage, to represent its condition at the end of the 24-hour race.
From the parts in the box to the final display piece, this is how I built Tamiya’s 1:20 scale kit of the Tyrrell P34 formula one racer, as driven at the 1977 Monaco Grand Prix by Patrick Depailler.
First time with race grime! Here’s how I built Tamiya’s 1989 Le Mans winner as it finished the 24-hour race, complete with bug smears, rubber debris, brake dust – and damage!
This is the second (and final) part in the Build Series on the Salvinos JR model kit of Richard Petty’s 1979 Daytona 500 winning Oldsmobile …
This is the first part (of two) on how to build the Salvinos JR kit of Richard Petty’s 1979 Daytona 500 winning Oldsmobile. It’s basically the Build Diary that was posted last month, but in video format.
I’d been wanting to build a Salvinos JR stock car kit for some time. Here’s the full build in words and pictures of creating Richard Petty’s Daytona 500 winning Oldsmobile.

I crashed it! Here’s the second (and final) video of building Tamiya’s 1:20 scale Tyrrell 023 Yamaha F1 racer from 1995.
Tyrrell’s 023 Yamaha F1 racer from 1995 didn’t do much on track, but it wasn’t a bad looking car. This video is the first of two that shows my build of Tamiya’s 1:20 scale plastic kit.
Tameo’s kit of Ferrari’s early season F1/89 Grand Prix car is typical of its 1/43 scale range of the era. Despite now being quite an …
This is the second and final video about building Tamiya’s 1:20 scale kit of the Ferrari F60 Grand Prix car that Kimi Raikkonen drove in the 2009 Formula One World Championship.
This is part 1 of a two part series on how I built Tamiya’s 1:20 scale kit of the Ferrari F60 Grand Prix car that Kimi Raikkonen drove in the 2009 F1 World Championship.
Considering the disaster that happened mid-way through the build, it’s a small miracle this model made it to completion. It was initially to be an out-of-box build but I ended up adding some plumbing, wiring and carbon fibre. And just to prove I’m crazy, I used the kit’s decals for the blue livery…
Holden’s sexy looking carbon-fibre-and-gold Car Of The Future test car hit the track in 2012. Despite the popularity of HRT, this version was never released by the model makers. So here’s how I made mine (mistakes and all!).

This is Honda’s first ever Formula One race winner, the RA272 taking victory at the 1965 Mexican Grand Prix. This is a video of how I built mine.
