Tamiya Lotus 99T
Re: Tamiya Lotus 99T
Thanks for kind commend, i made them on my own using self adhesive foil cutted to size, quiet a time consuming and fiddly job to attach them!
Take a stand!
Re: Tamiya Lotus 99T
Last update of the year is short, but i finished a few things.
I glued the tub to the chassis, attached a steering shaft, the front buckle head with breakfluid reservoirs, and additional wiring, but still not done.
Some more work on the engine is done, cam covers, ignition wires, injection system are intalled, scratch build connetor on gear box with plumbing and wiring done.
More following in the new year, wish you all a happy new year!

It would already look "full equipe" for a 1/12 (that it looks like), let alone a 1/20.

W. O. W. The detail here makes my eyes water, keep it up.
How much of this work is done with tweezers?

Re: Tamiya Lotus 99T
Many thanks for kind commends guys, keeps me motivated!
Will come back to it next week with more time for modeling. Undertray is CF decaled, what a nightmare this time! Had cracking SMS decals, 3 of 5 sheets for the dumb, seems like the dealer stored them for a long time, very disapointing!
@wixy500: I realy don`t know but i think 80% of dry fitting and construction is done with tweezers, excapt the rivets on the body, those are attached with a wax pencil, much easier to get them in right position, only 3 or 4 i lost to the carpet monster.
Wish you all a productive new modeling year!
