At what point is it appropriate to start begging for an update? :)

Checking nearly every day for an update. Considering investing in a 3D printer so that I can continue with my 1990 F1 cars.

Hello,

Here some more pictures:

For the suspension after the first resin part I'm now doing mold for white metal version, I never did that before, I find specific silicon to try to cast mainly the fragile parts.

Glad you having given up on this, Franck. The JS33 was a sexy car (in my opinion), and you're sure to sell as many copies as you can make.

Cheers, Chris

I like a lot this car as well because is simple and nice, the same for the decoration.

Hello,

Some month ago my box with all my JS33 parts fall down from almost 2 meters, after that I have to find back my motivation to rebuilt and carryon this project, any way here are the repair body with a new painting, I’m not happy with the result, I think I made a mistake with the hardener quantity, I bought some sandpaper to correct this orange skin effect.
