      I think you're right but I often find painting model car interiors black mean you can't see anything through the windows. Sometimes I'm selective with my accuracy.

    I'm in. Thanks for all the videos in 2024, and all good wishes for 2025 to you and your family. As for future builds, I love the Williams and the Benetton for their beautiful liveries and for the memories they evoke from watching the races in which they competed. However, the project that would interest me most is the Heller Citroen Fourgon H: that is for two reasons; first, my particular interest is non-completion road vehicles and, secondly, because I have that very kit in my stash.

    It's lovely seeing how far you've come with the channel, being here from the early days and now doing a give away, amazing and well done. As I only build motorsport topics I'm in two minds as to what I'd like, but I think it's best you go with what you want to build, that way you have no pressure on yourself as pleasing others can knock the mojo a bit, I love the work you do and the unusual and different stuff like the diorama's, great imagination you have. Have a lovely New year for you and family and model on.

    Hi Thomas. I'm in! You've built some beautiful models this last year mate, especially loved the Rydell volvo from nunu. Stunning build and my favourite era of touring cars. Some lovely kits to build in the upcoming months too, spoilt for choice! I'd love to see the Williams FW14B built and the Lancia 037 would be my rally choice, a real beauty! Look forward to seeing new vids as and when. Wishing you and yours a very Happy New Year with wealth , health and happiness 😁 All the best mate 👍👊

    Happy New Year to you too Thomas. Nice retrospective. I particularly liked your build of the Renault 5 Turbo. For this year's F1 build I'd say go for the Brabham. One of Gordon Murray's many interesting inventions. Or for the Lotus Renault John Player Special, another iconic car from another inventive automotive person.

    it's been a while since I built a kit from Revell. But my experience with Revell is not too rosy. Sometimes the molds that are used are not even from Revell. for example, Hasegawa (then you were lucky) Italeri, or Icm. the last two I experienced really big problems with the fit. which is why the project ended up in the trash. which is a waste of money. Revell and new molds, or Revell proclaims it as new, but it turns out they use old molds from the 90s, with high lying details, or no details at all. or the molds are really new, but the parts only have problems. it wants to prevent that when dry fitting everything is nests. but once painted, the parts suddenly no longer fit. and why thick chrome? that is a waste. just like the red bodywork.
