Eighties contest: Jaguar XJR-9 Le Mans

Hi, I'm working on this Le Mans car, is from Tamiya with some photoetched details from Studio27 and carbon fiber decals.

Cockpit:










Engine:









Exhaust:



Wheels:



Front suspension and radiator:





Engine bay:







Another two radiators for the engine bay:



Dashboard:







At the moment nearly everything is in its place, except for the bodywork and wheels.

















I'm working on the bodywork, the white colour coat is almost finished. Let me know waht you think.

Regards

Re: Working on: Jaguar XJR-9 Le Mans

Carbon fiber decals are from Microscale, the reference is TF-34. They work really well with MicroSol, you can adapt them easily to any surface. They're also much cheaper than Scale Motor Sport decals, for example, and I think they work better.

Lovely work on a classic machine. Welcome to AF as well!

As you mayt be aware, we're currently having an eighties contest, this would slot in perfectly if you'd like to join.

I have seen that post now. I'll join, if you could edit the tittle of this thread and add me in the other one to the list of modellers...
