Ayrton Sennas ride from 1993, McLaren MP4/8

So, now it's finished. Sort of.
After processing the picutres I noticed that I forgot to do something on it, take a guess what it is! Well, I correct that as soon as it's home again. It's on display in the local shop for the moment.

It's a Tamiya kit and I've built it OOB and it's pretty good but not one of my best builds. Luckily for me the camera smooths over the worst f***-ups making it look rather good in the pictures.:smokin: 

Started on it some 10 years ago and had huge amounts of trouble with the red decals, ordered some Tamiya paint instead only to mess up with the white. Went back in the box only to surface again a month ago and slammed together with no detailing what so ever. Bad painting under the cowl so that area is left to your imagination :wink:

I didn't put the bar very high building it, rather trying to finish another one before this year ends, think I'm up in 3 or 4 now and that is some kind of a new record being me :bananasmi

On to the pictures.....

C'mon Niclas, don't be so hard on yourself! And if it's just photos making it appear good, well good on you, then! Wink [;)] But yeah, we're our own worst critics... 

Btw, the missing thing to be done - rear-side McLaren decals? Just from memory I'd expect there to be something...
