Hasegawa Benetton B190

Skip the words. See the photos

Not a whole lot to say here. Quick and dirty build just to practice painting for the most part. I've always enjoyed this livery. Loud and unattractive as it is. Quadruple taped to keep everything sealed off and to avoid ridges in the final product. Typical Hasegawa quality. Went together mostly without a hitch. Very boring car for the most part with black on black on black. Just did some detail painting to add some contrast.  Happy with how it turned out. Good practice painting for when I finally get into my Mazda 787 build. Everything is practice for that build. Anyways, thought I'd share, thanks for looking

That turned out nice! Multi color schemes are always a challenge. The hardest I've done was the tricolor LeMans Ford GT but this one seems to be even tougher.

Thanks,
Ismael

Thanks Ismael! Was tough but I’m happy with it.

GREAT job on this build, Kyle. That paint scheme is wild and you nailed it.

Thanks Gary! I’m really happy with how the paint turned out. The masking of each color took some time but it was worth it.

Lyle,
Just caught up on your build. Outstanding paint job for sure. All that masking paid off in spads.

Thanks Joel! It was challenging but made for a nice feeling each time I pulled the masking off.

Thanks! This one is actually from January. It just recently resurfaced. And was done with rattle cans as I hadn’t gotten my airbrush setup yet. But some builds are better than others just as some paint jobs are better than others. I continue to try.
