Re: Progress: Caterham Super Seven JPE 1:12
I didn't completely forget about this build, but it's even still not finished... but I have done something to it. I also have built couple of 1:25 models in between...
 But after watching some of the S7 builds here (I have the Tamiya 1:24 kit also, but it is waiting to be built after this, so I couldn't join the group build with it) I had to update this thread of my Super 7 build also... Here are some mock-up pictures of the car with the body panels. Some of the panels will be just bare aluminium and I stripped them from any paint, they just need to be polished a little. Rear fenders and nose cone are charcoal mica with clear (2 layer Opel automotive paint), front fenders will stay unpainted for the black plastic fender look. I think unpainted plastic will look more like plastic than painted...   Then I finished the front suspension:  And this is the state of the model at the moment:  I will still do some modifications to the engine. But really one reason I love Super Sevens is that you can build them so differently and they look so good...

Re: Progress: Caterham Super Seven JPE 1:12
I'm shocked and amazed that you were able to pull yuorself from a kit like this
  Hopefully you will keep up the momentum now!

Re: Progress: Caterham Super Seven JPE 1:12
You will find that http://www.antaresmodels.com/ has a interesting detail set, perhaps they want to sell some parts separately
Cheers
