The glamour shots do not disappoint. I love it. So nicely done in all aspects. GREAT work.

Congrats on another brilliant build. Following it from the Green Flag to just now the checker flag, I'd say this is one of, if not your best build yet. For me the key is how you finish every piece of metal to look just like the actual piece. Of course paint and decaling is spot on and perfect.
When you make it look like anyone can do this type of build, just proves how good you really are at MHF kits.

Welp, it’s finished. The air box seemed to give me the biggest headache, firs it was filling in the seam , then it was massaging it to get it to sit flush. I have a bunch of glamour shots coming soon, stay tuned . Thanks for looking I quite agree about the airbox... on both issues.

Looks great, Chris! I hope mine comes out as well. With the limited build time lately and fall rushing on like gangbusters, I hope I get it finished this fall. I only have 4 other projects that MUST be finished before I take on the Brabham! And I discovered in the pile two more McLarens that I thought I had sold. I'm not sure I'm interested in building two M23s so would you be interested in one? They are the Tamiya big scale kits. I am thinking of converting one into the James Hunt F1 world championship car with the low airbox. I remember you can get a resin part that makes it correct.
But once again, congratulations on a great build!

I have spoiled myself with MFH kits and I have a couple 1/8 scales I have waiting for some attention 😉

If memory serves me, you mentioned that your dream build would be the Ferrari shark nose…. I just guided you in the right direction 😉
