SH modeling

Started with the dry-fitting of the transkit parts...

I scratched a new dash board on top of the 102B part with two 0.3mm styrene sheets.
The steering wheel of the 101 (and the 102) was a special piece from Momo with a flattened bottom. I cut the 102B steering wheel and added the flat bottom with a styrene rod. Looks good to me!

Race version

I have a 1/20 Thumb Creation transkit (incl. rain tires). But I recently decided to build Piquet's 4th placed Japan GP car.
I simply have more and better reference pictures for this GP. And I will also save the rain tires :-)

Available kits

Fortunately for us, Satoru is Japanese, so we got some choices for a 1/20 scale build:

• Thumb Creation Resin Transkit (needs Tamiya 102B donor kit)
• MOA Resin Transkit (needs Tamiya 102B donor kit)
• Hobby Base Custom Resin Transkit (needs Tamiya 102B donor kit)
• Modelers 101 Australia GP (Resin, white metal, photoetch parts) - best option, hard to come by ;-)
