Re: Lotus 78 decals

OK, put you anorak on....! I did a lot of research on the 79 for the MG kit, including photographing 79/3 at Classic Team Lotus - the correct colour for both 78 and 79 is a light "biscuit". The recent Tamiya re-issue is a lot nearer, but still too dark a tan, but the Tabu Design sets for 1...

Re: McLaren MP4-22 kit - in 1/8 scale!

Yes, that makes sense! I really hope so too, as I'm building the 1/8th '76 M23 right now, and they would look nice together....

I'll screw the parts together soon, and post a pic...

Re: McLaren MP4-22 kit - in 1/8 scale!

Well, I finally received parts 2 and 3 today, but that's it for now, folks. Seems that they are indeed suspending publication for the "foreseeable future" - due to lack of interest - which I find surprising, given that it's Lewis land over here - or maybe he's out of favour now the true Br...

Re: Does anyone have an ALPS Printer?

Thanks James - I'm working on scaling up a clean scan of the F1 Specialties 1/20 set to 1/8 - can I email it to you?

Does anyone have an ALPS Printer?

Hi all, I need a favour - I'm about to start the Entex 1/8 McLaren and naturally the 1970s decals have to be replaced. There are a few challenges, but most can be overcome - except that I need to print some pure white "James Hunt" monikers. Has anyone got an ALPS that can do me a couple of...

We also do Firth of Fifth.... plus Rush Tom Sawyer/La Villa Strangiato, deciding on a Yes no. (any offers?) - and we're doing some ...

Re: McLaren MP4-22 kit - in 1/8 scale!

I've just ordered the subscription - consider it a base for a repaint, and a good model in 1/8th scale may result - or perhaps a base for mods and a coat of metallic red paint????!!!! After all, don't they all look the same nowadays if you leave them in grey primer?
