This kit goes together beautifully, a real mojo restorer. I love the simple scheme you chose, nice work!

Thanks for posting. I'm building a 251 as well and I have kinda stalled at painting stage. These pics will help get things going again :)

This is insane! I love it!

I found a nice looking PE detail up set and a resin shuttle bay, but no resin bridge :(

I think the floor weathering looks great :D

For what it's worth, my friend showed me his Dragon version of the same subject and it's far more detailed than this old Tamiya kit. Here's how mine's going so far. Still build/dry fit stages...

If that's the Tamiya kit, I am building the same one myself right now! I'm going to paint and weather all the internals before putting the top on. I'm leaving off the water barrel - so few of my references have it and it fouls against the seats, which I think are a little too large. The kit's...

@pitstop Thanks for your interest. Moving house was way more disruptive than I expected so I haven't had time to get my bench sorted. I should be back in the saddle soon :)

Looks incredible! Where on earth can you get this amazing kit?!

Thanks Shayne, I've been moving house - it's been a gruelling experience. Hopefully I'll get my kit set up this weekend and have some more to show :) Did you build your Tamiya Tyrrell yet?

Thanks for the tip, Rookie. I picked up some Vallejo paints over the weekend. I'm in the middle of moving house though so no chance to work on it this week :(

Thanks for the tip Rookie. I'll try liquid paper next time... Ok, first off here's my reference picture... I'm pretty pleased with how the exhaust manifolds turned out. I used a Tamiya weathering kit and gave them a good rub with the Burnt Red to give them that oxidized look... I'm not so...

Thanks Gag. I'm looking forward to making a bit more progress this weekend :)
