Building a Alpha Model Mclaren 720S Part 5

[@colossalbigfoot256]

I like the gunmetal for the cleaner look. Just mho. Turned out nice.

[@patmygroin]

With ALL the carbon and details, this is a masterpiece!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Yes, It is...........👍

[@sergeyb6071]

final assembly is always the hardest. Just from the excitement to see the finished product, so many things can slip due to impatience.. Beautiful build once again! I like Gold wheels, but having different color on each side is not a bad idea.

[@jerryjohnsonii4181]

Absolutely awesome McLaren 720S Model Build !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I like the gold rims

[@AMMO_x]

The gunmetal wheels do match the carbon and the grey paint really good! Awesome to see the carbon details connecting symmetrical! Beautifull build!

[@davidneilson3508]

For me it’s the gold wheels. They really pop against the color of the car. 👍👍😊

[@johnnyz2378]

Another masterpiece!! I would’ve gone with the Gold wheels, if I were building it. Love your work, brother!! : )

[@barrywingrave2034]

Yes the silver and carbon fibre do go together very well however I'm not so sure of having different colour wheels either side

[@ianjackson7515]

As a build, Tom, one of your 'Top 3' without a doubt.... the colour scheme, though contemporary leaves me cold - and that's fine because we're all individuals and what suits and pleases me will not appeal to another modeller. Looking forward to whatever you choose to do next, I would always pitch for something more 'historic' especially after a couple of more contemporary projects. Happy Christmas & New Year to you and all the best from NZ.

[@jeffersonchocron]

The gold wheels seems better than the dark ones. Nice build.

[@bubbapipe]

You build some awsome models my friend. I have been a fan of your work since I found your channel. To me I like the gold wheels but the body color just looks like shiny primer. Even though I would not have picked that color your build skills and final build looks amazing.

[@julienhytrix9976]

Woaw, we didn't seen every details in the past, but now, this is incredible...I really love the gun metal wheels, but the gold are really cool, it's different and more illuminated !

[@michaelmaciejewicz7534]

Great looking build Love the two colors on the wheels

[@amilcarmoncada1801]

[@keefr22]

Lovely model, great colour combo and much prefer the gunmetal wheels.

[@virtualeous86]

CF Wheels ...btw that was insane job for the cf details ... love it 👍❤️

[@Swaggaroni_tony]

Orange wheels with the gold calipers would be a nice touch as well

[@SteveJonesScaleModellingSite]

Beautiful car. Wonderful finish. Lovely work all round

[@djninja735]

Absolutely amazing build. Personally I prefer the gold wheels but either way it looks amazing!

[@bigcharliesmodelgarage296]

This is a beautiful build looks awesome.

[@blakedavis3664]

My favorite one so far! I really want to see you do the senna sometime.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

100% agree!

[@spVln04]

I love the gold wheels! Sets it apart from the usual black wheels.

[@michaelhintzmikesminiature1812]

Kinda weird the way the door cards have to go in. I do have one on order so I'm glad I watched this. I think the gunmetal wheels suit the grey body color better As Always. Nice Work!!! Great Job!!!

[@oldman7452]

Looks fantastic. Gunmetal rim with body color spokes maybe or vice-versa.

[@pr0_tr0ll]

Another awesome build, and I enjoyed the quick "how to" with the carbon fiber pieces. Personally I'm a huge muscle car fan; currently working on customizing a '68 charger. What about a muscle car or possibly an old school pick up fir your next build.

[@ricardoalejandrocarballes3170]

Incredibly great!!, I was watching the whole process of assembly, as soon I have to start assembling the Ferrari SF70H Tamiya, greetings and see you soon.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Great build, love the color choice! With that color, the wheels you choose were perfect. Again, great job!!!!!!!!! 👍👍😊😊😉😉

[@JHartModelworks]

I've been getting real inconsistent color mixing from Zero lately. especially interior colors. I bought a bottle of ferrari interior beige that came to me as a pale yellow, a second bottle came in the correct beige color. I also bought a bottle of Sabbia that seems rather yellowy too, but I haven't tested it yet.

[@granpaaucarre7914]

Marvelous, incredible job, what a great assembly. Love it

[@patrickschneider8875]

I would like to see how you build the supra race car(castrol) from tamiya.

[@ralfschrooten7795]

Super gedaan Tom! Ik zou de gum metal velgen doen. Steekt mooi af bij de nardo grey.

[@Lotuseless]

Final result is stunning, a truly beautiful model. Also, are you ever goonna build the legendary Dodge Charger Daytona? The one with giant wing and nose. As far as I know Moonogram makes one.

[@garyparker2969]

Another Masterpiece Sir and I Prefer The Gold Wheels. Have a Blessed, Safe and Merry Christmas.

[@DJVolte]

I honestly can't decide which color I prefer either. Awesome build though!

[@1955mouse]

nice job, i think the gold looks better, sets it off better

[@courtneyjacobs4380]

The gold wheels came out the best

[@colinwalker191]

Another fantastic model as usual, keep up the great work and content.

[@philiph6723]

Great build. How about a Model Factory Hiro or Profil24 build? Your builds provide excellent motivation. Philip

[@gr5535]

Excellent Build ⭐⭐⭐⭐👍👍 maybe titanium for the rims

[@LincesaMiko]

Looks fantastic! 💖

[@tekgd4129]

wow this is so awesome! i would have gone with the gold wheels.

[@madhatterstudios966]

I have really enjoyed this particular series of yours as I was doing some research on how to apply carbon fiber decals properly. I have learnt a lot from these videos - so thank you. On a side note, I do have a question regarding the PE window wipers. I'm building the Alpha Model 812 Superfast but I'm a tad stumped on the smallest of details: I do not understand the way the windscreen wiper is meant to be folded and assembled. The instructions are less than stellar at showing you how its meant to look. I don't suppose you could give a quick run down or point me in the right direction to somewhere that can show me how to make windscreen wiper frames and assembly?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

I havent seen anything online where i can point you too maybe look up the real deal and try replicating that

[@reyvenpl3525]

dope and awesome detail as allway's :) i would any way paint the body metalic or candy orange, the body would look even better

[@kirchnerfarm]

I like the gun metal bro looks awesome. How about an Aoshima 039182 Mazda Speed GT-Concept '96 RX-7 or a lowered truck?

[@rusomodels]

Nice work my friend 👌

[@sergiogalaz88]

The windshield wipers are not opposite each other? Otherwise, great build, i love how it turn out!!

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

This is how they are supposed to be according to the kit. And the way they assemble

[@antonbooysen6147]

Awesome! Gold wheels! What about an enzo Ferrari?

[@norevfan_modelcarnews_ets2fan]

Nice built as always 😀

[@garyslentzii2796]

Maybe spray smoke over the gold wheels, do a test from your spare wheels. Looks great, nice work.

[@mtweijnman279]

I like the gold wheels better. Because of the grey color of the cars, the wheels give something bright.

[@JohnPol]

I like the gold wheels

[@curtisboxill-boxmansbuilds2980]

Both wheel colors look good,but i prefer the Gold ones.

[@Bgruhn76_FL]

Nice as always! When the Senna is released - you need to do that one! :- )

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

I know!, right?

[@TheGreatCornholio.]

I feel like this is a good place to ask, what should I get for my first model build?

[@rick_fortune]

Gunmetal for mine. The gold's nice, but the gunmetal works better with the general grey/black tones on the car.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Yep, agree!

[@jordanreynolds4458]

Carbon fiber wheels wouldve been looked still really good great job man

[@sbf109]

Nice color~! I like this.

[@leonedillssgaming2812]

i like the gun metal cause it makes the calipers stand out but not to much either.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Yep

[@sszandorszandor4703]

beautiful ....well done ..

[@mrpotatoskin2803]

I cant say the gold looks that great as your eye is drawn to it too much as the gunmetal is a more smoother look and suits the car better. If your grey was a bit lighter then the gold would suit it a lot better. I found that also with the bronze gold Te37 but I also added a clear black over the top of it to take off the edge as it was to bright. That's a tough build its good to see it completed.

[@AlexHonsalesModelRestoration]

Great job!

[@tylertlg]

“Let me know what color of wheels you would’ve done” Me personally, I would’ve went gold, it has a nice look to it and it looks really good with that grey. The gunmetal also looks good as well, and matches the car but your eyes, or at least mine, over look it until you turn the model to look at the gold/bronze wheels. Although this could just be me because I am a fan of bronze wheels on grey vehicles. 🤷‍♂️

[@pr0_tr0ll]

The gun metal set makes it look "stealth" and the gold a more regal look. Im with you sir, gone gold.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

@@pr0_tr0ll Love what is on it!!!

[@rushabnoah3620]

Loved the build. The only thing I was not comfortable was with tail lights being too bright for red. Should have been a little darker

[@bobwil9903]

Absoluut geniaal, zoals altijd! De remklauwen laat je tijdens het spuiten aan de sprue zitten. Wat doe je met de plaats, die daardoor niet voorzien kan worden van kleur, wanneer je deze losknipt?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

niks, want dit was het stuk wat in de hub gelijmd werd achter de remschijf en je nooit meer ziet.

[@voin3858]

The gold metal pops more ...gives the car a little more class.

[@tonytouch4608]

Really cool build, but you made a mistake with the tail lights. with the original 720S these are completely black or transparent and only the LEDs light up red

[@MegaWhiteranger]

Anyone have some tips for using the super glue? Every time I use the glue it leaves like a white haze or clouding. Am I putting too much or am I doing something else wrong?

[@nando03012009]

Nice build. Question? Where do you get your kits from. This is hard to find in the USA.

[@eathanrichards6363]

Walmart.ca

[@eathanrichards6363]

Or ebay and amazon

[@oldtown6240]

The gold gives a nice contrast - that would have been my choice.

[@vinmirarchi]

Are any of these cars ever for sale?

[@Jnn-ef5zd]

Do you know? recently, Tamiya revealed mclaren senna 1/24 kits, are you planning to make it later??

[@jerequallio9052]

What type of glue did you use for all the photo-etch grilles?

[@BrodieD]

I think I would have gone the gun metal. I think it suited the grey/carbon fibre colour scheme better

[@MrGFG003]

Imho, the gunmetal over a silver base instead of a black base would have been great for this car.

[@johnmorrison27]

Superb 👍

[@matteopatel5096]

Tamiya Mclaren Senna next?

[@sunitaappa6142]

On your next video do on a SUV like range rover or Jeep if possible....

[@branbucsmodelcars]

very nice

[@udomartens3557]

Super Job,i

[@analogpl1]

[@Oaf_Guy]

[@Leeollee]

Gunmetal Wheels might look cooler

[@misaelisaacbatistsbaez7644]

Please make a pagani huayra bc plisssssssssssss

[@THROTTLEPOWER]
