PLMKWYT - I need the advice!

You need to use slopes and tiles more, to smooth out the surface. Don’t you
have some blue and white slopes and tiles?

I have blue tiles in excess, but not in the sizes I really need. I have white
tiles as well, but in order to do some of the trickyness to get the sidepods 1
plate thick I can’t use tiles (and the sidepods look really odd if the white is
higher than the blue - look at some of my previous models which used white tiles
to get an idea of this)
As for slopes, well, to get the spine on the top airbox correct, I can’t use the
slopes that I used on previous versions, and slopes don’t provide the correct
slant for the “walrus” nose at the front. I did use some technic 1x6x1.3 wing
end slopes where I stuck the williams sticker, but that’s about it.
Being 16, I can’t get the parts I want when I want them, and this pretty much
used up all of my white plates. therefore, I can’t really get the sideways
slopes which are perfect for this model.
Anyone care to comment on the suspension? some other tricky building tips would
be cool - I want to make as streamlined a shape as possible, without
compromising strength (I take it to school as our Lego team mascot) or looks -
anyone interested in the actual shape of the real car can email me and I’ll send
a pic.
