    This is the fifth part of my McLaren Honda Mp4/4 build in 1/20 from Tamiya. This video focuses on assembling the front and rear wings, the wheels and tyres as well as a 1/20 scale Senna figure.
    Look out for the new "Do you know..." captions during the video.
    The McLaren MP4/4, also known as the McLaren-Honda MP4/4, is one of the most successful Formula One car designs of all time. Driven by teammates Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna, the car competed during the 1988 Formula One season. It was designed by American engineer Steve Nichols, the full responsibility for the design of the car having been conferred on him by Ron Dennis. Gordon Murray, as Technical Director, subsequently confirmed this in an internal memo allocating responsibilities for the design department, nominating Nichols as chief designer for the car, and giving himself the role of liaising between the drawing office and production.

      That's a good idea, thanks! I wish I had some spares to practice on but these are the only 1/20 F1 tyres I have!

      I have found that paint can, while doing an amazing job at body color, is pretty tough to do detail work. Just too much paint comes out and you have no control over the pressure and paint flow. I have not used these types of stencils but I have done tape work with a can and it almost never comes out how you want. Just too much paint coming out at a time. I do find distance helps a lot with cans and maybe if you tried the stencil while holding the car further, it may turn out better with several very thin coats.

      @@ScaleAutoGarage yeah that was my thinking too. I would like to try them again but after 4 failures I threw in the towel! 😂

    Brilliant idea with the visor! Maybe use a stiff, mostly dry brush with a downward stippling motion for the tires?

      Cheers Joe. Yeah, that's a possible solution. I want to get them right sometime.

    Shame about the stencil but that driver figure looks great. I find a touch of brown panel liner over the skin does help bring out some of the face detail.

      Thanks, Spencer. I meant to do something like that and only remembered once the visor was in place! 😂

    Spray at a lower pressure.. if you're using spray cans I'm afraid you are out of luck. Just remember lower your pressure, and don't flood the paint light coats.

    • @BOABModels

      Thanks, Richard. Yeah, when I've seen people get it work they are using an airbrush. I do hope to upgrade to one eventually.
