Great job.

The cockpit and engine detail are great.

I hope to accomplish your level of realism when I get around to building mine.

It turned out very nice.

About a month or so I guess...

Actually ... I started to build the Lotus begin august but... I had it in my shelve since 1994 when I inherated it from a deceased friend who had started the painting of the body. I tried to spray a layer on top of my friend's work, but that didn't work out. So I had to strip all the paint and start over again, which I did. From there on I worked almost all month of august to reach completion today.

I described my first steps on this model in this topic, but I started a new one after a while, because I was going kinda off-topic in the first one.

PS - How's that Ford coming along? I've bought that kit today and I'm starting on it tonight..Do you have any coments on that? Is it a straight forward build, or not really? Thanks

Actually... I'm starting to work on that Ford tomorrow

The Lotus has taken all my attention, now I'm gonna "throw" myself on the Ford. It will be a straight forward build, but with lots of attention to detail. The Lotus is also a straight forward build BTW...

I hate you!


I m never going to make that car look so good as you just did!

Man, I love the little details that make it a true masterpiece!
Gorgeous engine detail, exhaust, nice wood effect on the steering wheel, and one thing I don't really see, the red in the cockpit, is it flocking ? it doesn't look plain, looks a bit textured, or that might just be the jpg compression?

Two thumbs up !
Olivier
