Re: Progress - Tamiya Ligier JS-11 (lot's off pics,56K WARNING)

that is absolutely fantastic work, simply stunning. There is too much for me to pick up on so its probably safe to say Im speechless

This has to be the best reproduction of the JS-11 I have ever ever seen, along with Robrex and Jaykay you guys leave me lost for words.

many many congratulations my friend.

Sean

Bloody hell… This is just amazing, and I now know just how much of a rank amateur I am at model building.

The whole thing is real, as to say it looks real is an insult. That wing is just amazing, and I’m impressed, and if I’d not seen your hands in the pictures I’d have not believed how small this really is. Totally amazing.

Re: Progress - Tamiya Ligier JS-11 (lot's off pics,56K WARNING)

...a quick question, do you have a special booth to take your pictures in? they are beautifully clear and the light balance appears just about right. Any special kit you use or just a good ole digi camera and some white paper?

Re: Progress - Tamiya Ligier JS-11 (lot's off pics,56K WARNING)

This has to be the best 1/20 engine I've ever seen and the wing... just WOW...

BTW is the wing completely scratchbuild from metal (alu?)?

Wow! Looks like that thing is ready to be fired up. That's one hell of a build. I'll be keeping a close eye on this one. Keep up the good work!

Re: Progress - Tamiya Ligier JS-11 (lot's off pics,56K WARNING)

Wow!!!
I have one question? How did you make the rivets on the wing? I can see they are small pins...did you just cut them off flush and sand the cut?
Just amazing!!!!

The engine on its own is a masterpiece, fantastic work. Then comes the wing, now is sick stuff. Looks excellent and what a great job you are doing...
