Ferrari Mythos
Xanavi Nismo GT-R R34
WilliamsF1 BMW FW24 (full-view)
Ferrari F2001 (full-view)

I made it a long time ago, and I don't particularly like it. The chassis is just the Testarossa, (also available as a Tamiya kit) and the body will not sit nicely over the rear wheels, which are positioned too much forward in the wheelarches.

I have F50 wheels for it. :D

well they won't compensate for the off centre/forward position of the rear wheels themselves:) (but may be PF designed the car to look that way)

Whatever floats the boat. :)

BTW I messed up the primer on the Mythos a few weeks ago. :D

suggestion: put all the names of the kits still to be build on a small piece of paper, put them in a jar, and just take out a random piece....

Erm...that only works if you are motivated by the subject you draw, if not you're back to square one.:)

you must have been motivated once, as you bought the kit:D (i'll give it to you if you don't to include kits that you have been presented with)

DAMN!!!!! I wish I could have those cool kits. My hobby shop is just simply too small for good models like the ones you have. Any how, go either for the Mythos or the GT-R. The F1 cars will probably take you too long to build over winter break.

Not really, the McLaren Honda MP4/5B has a body consist of only a few pieces, and even if I choose to make the full-views, I don't have to paint. :) (At least not 90% of the exterior) MP4/7 would take forever though. I also have a Tyrrell P34 which I messed up the body paint a long time ago, but I can sand it anytime. My hobby shop is extremely small too, but I use my sister's room for all the paintjob since she moved outta the house, I use spray cans only. :D

Been looking through the Mythos manual, it seems that there's no seatbelt....anyone got a tutorial on making them?
