1/20 Jordan 199Veyron 02-16-2012, 06:15 AM This is Modeler's 1/20 Jordan 199 F1 kit built up pretty much out of the box except for Tamiya MP4/13 rims/tires and Modeler's seat belts. The paint is Finisher's Jordan yellow which in person is a real nice lemon yellow. The paint was put on over white primer, wet sanded then cleared with U-pol urethane over the decals. I did three sessions of wet coats wet dansing between each session. The light booth doesn't show the gloss well at all because I don't know what I'm doing with the photography lol. The gold on the cockpit surround is Jordan 196 gold mixed by MCW and matches the gold in the decals spot on. I didn't use any CF decals, I just gave it the semi gloss black treatment for simplicity sake. I took a few artistic liberties with it in some of the details so it isn't a perfect replica by any means. The rear wing could have used more attention because the parts were a bit low grade but I tried not to put too much fuss in the build. For any who have viewed Will Chan's build of this kit you know how far I didn't go. lol Overall I'm very happy with it, I haven't been doing much building lately and my skills are a bit rusty but I plan to stay in full build mode, especially on my F1 kits. http://images60.fotki.com/v367/photos/4/1626384/10409036/199fin3-vi.jpg http://images107.fotki.com/v71/photos/4/1626384/10409036/199fin5-vi.jpg http://images55.fotki.com/v585/photos/4/1626384/10409036/199fin6-vi.jpg http://images107.fotki.com/v71/photos/4/1626384/10409036/199fin7-vi.jpg http://images109.fotki.com/v785/photos/4/1626384/10409036/199fin8-vi.jpg http://images59.fotki.com/v791/photos/4/1626384/10409036/199fin4-vi.jpg cox 02-16-2012, 06:35 AM surely one of the most beautiful jordan. very good ffreak 02-16-2012, 08:30 AM Beautiful work !!!

I have the S27 1/20 Simtek S941 kit and Fujimi Aventador on the bench now. mach1_2003 02-17-2012, 07:49 AM Looks fantastic and I actually think the pictures came out great. Although there may not be the reflection you're used to seeing they are very clear, well lit and vivid. sebasoakley 02-17-2012, 08:16 AM excelent Job...love this F1 car. DerXL 02-20-2012, 02:55 PM Great build of one of the most beautiful liveries in F1, IMO. If your skills are rusty, it sure doesn't show. Build looks perfect to me. andybmw7272 02-20-2012, 08:57 PM Great Brian! I wouldn't have expected this from you, but then, not surprised to see you build a performance machine like this. I cant wait to see some updates on that Aventador! Andy Automotive Articles .com, Copyright ©2012
