Tamiya 1/12 Williams Renault FW14B Detail Up Parts Full Set 3D Resin F1
Original Detail-Up Parts - Complete Set. Original 3D-designed and resin-printed detail-up parts, designed and produced in Japan. This complete detail-up parts set has been developed for the TAMIYA 1/12 Williams FW14B plastic model kit. Each component has been independently 3D-modeled using references of the actual car, with particular attention to proportions, mechanical construction, and the distinctive features of the Williams FW14B. The purpose of this set is to reproduce shapes and details that are difficult to achieve with conventional injection-molded plastic parts, enhancing the precision and realism of the finished model.
IMPORTANT: Photo 5 shows the complete set of unpainted resin parts you will receive. It includes the exhaust and related components, tires, wheels, air valves, front and rear GOOD YEAR logo painting templates, and a rotating tire sanding jig.
Other photographs showing painted or assembled parts are examples of finished models. The TAMIYA model kit and completed model are NOT included.
Exhaust and Related Detail-Up Parts. Tires, Wheels and Air Valves.
GOOD YEAR Logo Painting Templates - Front and Rear. The exhaust system is one of the distinctive mechanical features of the Williams FW14B. On the actual car, the exhaust pipes maintain a circular cross-section close to the engine block while forming smooth, continuous curves. These complex shapes are difficult to reproduce accurately using conventional injection-molded plastic parts. For this set, the exhaust system has been 3D-modeled from scratch using references of the actual car.
The pipes have been designed with smooth, continuous curves to reproduce the natural and dynamic appearance of the original exhaust system. In addition to the exhaust pipe weld joints and sensor openings, the design reproduces the distinctive flattened section at the rear of the right-side exhaust pipe, shaped to provide clearance for the external starter motor drive shaft used during engine starting. To better reproduce the actual construction, the rear exhaust sections are separate components. These sections are designed to be installed on the undertray, allowing their positions to be adjusted during assembly.Rear exhaust pipe sections for undertray mounting - left and right. Integrated exhaust pipes - left and right.
Radiator duct support rod mounting fittings ×2. Late-specification undertray rear diffuser section. Late-specification undertray side sections - left and right. Brake wire entry/exit fittings for lower suspension arms ×4.
Redesigned to more closely reproduce the appearance of the component on the actual car. Three components are included: the rear diffuser section and the left and right side sections.These parts can be used when modifying the kit undertray to reproduce the later specification. Designed for installation on suspension arms modified to approximately 1.4 mm thickness.
The headrest has been designed slightly undersized to accommodate the thickness of the fabric covering applied during finishing. These parts may also be used with aftermarket detail-up components from other manufacturers, although fitting adjustments may be necessary. The wide tires and wheels have been newly designed with particular attention to the proportions and appearance of the Williams FW14B.
The tire diameters, widths and wheel shapes have been studied using references of the actual car to achieve a more precise and realistic appearance. The tires and wheels are separate components, allowing them to be painted individually before assembly. This makes masking and painting easier and helps achieve a cleaner finish. The wheels are designed for use with aftermarket detail-up parts from other manufacturers. The wheel axle hole diameter is 4.8 mm. Some fitting adjustments may be required depending on the components used.Air valves are also included to complete the wheel details. All parts are supplied unpainted and unassembled. GOOD YEAR Logo Painting Templates. These original 3D-designed painting templates are intended for accurately reproducing the GOOD YEAR lettering on the tire sidewalls. Separate front and rear templates are included, with different lettering sizes to reflect the proportions of the actual car.
The templates are shaped to follow the curved tire sidewalls, helping to minimize paint overspray. They can also be used with the tires already fitted to the wheels. Front tire logo painting template ×1.
Rear tire logo painting template ×1. Different lettering sizes for front and rear tires. Designed to follow the curved tire sidewalls.
Approximately 0.2 mm designed clearance between tire and template. Rounded lettering edges designed to allow paint to enter the openings. Printed using 8K resin on a 12K-resolution 3D printer.
Can be used with wheels installed. The lettering sections are very thin and delicate. Please handle the templates carefully. Minor paint bleed may occur during application.
If necessary, carefully remove excess paint using a cotton swab with a suitable cleaner that will not damage the painted surface. The supplied tires do NOT have pre-painted GOOD YEAR logos.
The logos visible in the finished-model photographs are examples of paint applied using the templates. A rotating jig is included to help finish the tire tread surfaces. By mounting a tire on the jig and rotating it with a drill or similar tool, fine printing layers, support marks and surface irregularities can be removed using sandpaper. This helps produce a more uniform tread surface and a natural tire appearance. Minor fitting adjustments between the jig and tire may be necessary due to variations in the 3D-printing process. Compatible kit: TAMIYA Williams FW14B. Condition: New, unpainted and unassembled.Designed and produced in Japan. Recommended for intermediate and advanced model builders. This product contains resin detail-up parts only. The TAMIYA plastic model kit is NOT included.
Photo 5 shows the complete set of parts included in this listing, including both GOOD YEAR painting templates and the rotating tire sanding jig. Photographs of painted or assembled models are provided for reference only. The completed model is not included. The wheels are designed for use with aftermarket detail-up components. Direct installation onto the standard kit components without modification is not guaranteed.As these are 3D-printed resin parts, minor layer lines, support marks, surface steps or pinholes may be present. Cutting, cleaning, sanding, gluing and fitting adjustments may be required. Surface preparation is recommended before applying metallic or chrome-effect finishes.
Resin parts may be fragile, especially in thin or delicate areas. Please take care when cutting, sanding or drilling. Minor variations in resin color, surface finish and support marks may occur. These parts require model-building knowledge and skills and are recommended for intermediate and advanced builders.This is an independently designed aftermarket product. It is not an official product of, or affiliated with, TAMIYA or Williams. MODELING & DESIGN - JAPAN.
