Didn't even see this one; you are just whipping these out like crazy! ;)

Who's the maker of this kit? The wing on the pic of the 1st Marlboro car above seems to sit much higher than the second one, although they are both #8. Story?

More than 700 unbuilt models in the stash... i have to build like crazy before getting married next year :p

This is Tamiya 956. As far as I know, this particular car used the long-tail in the race start then it changed to the short-tail during the race. Not 100% sure of this, but i found lots of pictures in Le Mans circuit of this car with the long-tail.

These colours look great on any car - can't wait to see it. Will you be using Tamiya TS-49 red or an airbrush colour?

I'll use automotive paints with the correct "fluo" effect.

Maybe this picture will help you.
I took it before the wednesday's practices.

iancLudwig had an accident at Le Tertre Rouge, sunday at 12h40.
Joest Team didn't had a spare LH rear body.
They put a "short high downforce" one used on other tracks.

Thanks.

Actually it doesn't have a name.... he is a car modeller here in Rio and he sells automotive paints in small bottles. His name is Pedro (PM me for his e-mail). You can look the colors here (don't know if it's updated): http://www.small-dreams.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=116&t=10506

Almost there...

Denilsonvm and other friends from AF, to reproduce marboro fluorecent red I usually use the Tamiya Fluorecent Red for policarbonate (RC bodies) over automotive PU white base. After painting the red fluor I overspray the mode with automotive PU clearcoat.

I think the tamiya PS fluorecent red is the better choice if you does not have the original color from Courtaulds.

Kind Regards

Denilsonvm your builds are amazing! Great work as usual! congrats!

Another finished...
