WIP Toyota 88C-V
I started my new project last week. I was at home because some flu so I had time to modeling.
I started with the engine. I decided to add some more detail, like injection system and radiatior hoses, real springs and other stuff.
During the building some very strange problems occured. I realized that some part are missing. Not only from the box but alos from the instruction sheet. Simply it was not produced. Like the tube between the intercooler and the turbo...
Here are the pics:

*cough* *cough* I feel a flu coming on!

If that's what flu does to one's modelling skills, besides the extra time, I'm off to lay outside tonight! Great job!

Re: WIP Toyota 88C-V
Is this the Konica Minolta version? I seem to remember there is also a Taka-Q version as well... I think.

I've been hanging out to build the Minolta version. Anyway, looks like a great job you're doing so far. The CF on the intakes looks great - have you cleared over the top of the CF decals?

Don't take this the wrong way - but you should get sick more often. Excellent work.

Yes, this will be the Minolta version.

No, the CF is not clear coated only polished with compound

Looking great so far! I have the Taka-Q version on it's way to me at the moment (better get it soon!) Hopefully I get a few ideas from your build

Keep up with the progress.
