Top Studio F1-2000 Super Detail Up Set

Posted by cyclechef on Friday, April 27, 2018 5:53 AM

Getting back into modeling as an adult. I'm an F1 fan and found the Tamiya Ferrari F1-2000 kit. Also found the Top Studio Super Detail Up Set. Wanted to make it look great. Does anyone have any knowledge about these kits to help me? I'm having trouble trying to figure out where the some of the detail parts go. The instructions that come with the Detail Set have no reference to the coordinating step for the model instructions. Any help will be greatly appreciated. As you know, the detail set is expensive and I don't want to mess it up. Thank you.

Welcome back to the hobby. The Tamiya line of F1 kits are outstanding but I'm not familiar with the Top Studio set other than reading a rather impressive description of it. Based on that and your saying you're new to getting back to building I'd suggest you set the project aside, get another Tamiya F1 kit (which can sometimes be a challenge in their own right) and get used to this before taking the chance on ruining a very expensive model. Chances are you didn't not encounter photo etch and resin parts when you last were modeling so take it slow.
