Imperial Lotus 78 Mk III

Old Academy copy of the Tamiya 1/20th JPS kit. As far as the quality of the kit composition, something was lost in the translation , but it worked well enough for this project.
Decals are from the 1994 IPMS National Convention, (printed from my artwork). Tamiya TS-8 and TS-11 for the body colors. Mostly out-of-the-box except for the addition of the injector lines and replacement of the rear wing plates and re-shaping of the side pods and skirts.

Very nice. In some of the pics it looks like a real race car photographed in the pit lane.
