From yellow to black - Lotus 98

Post by mazyen »

Hi Members,

Here is one of the 4 F1 builds (which includes a Lotus 91, FW-07 & FW-11) completed in Kigali during the lockdown period from March/May. This is a Tamiya 99 converted to a 98ish 1986 Lotus. In fact all of them were WIPs in various stages of completion.


Cheers

Fantastic! Really good attention to detail.

Where did you get the Radiator mesh from?

Outstanding! What decals did you use for the 98ish? The best looking JPS livery car ever, IMHO.

Thanks for the encouraging comments.
To answer your questions, the mesh is cut from a etched metal screen from "K1 Design" which I bought from Hobbyeasy warehouse years ago & the decal set is from "MSM Creation".
I'll take & post the photos off the FW-07, FW-11 & Lotus 91 separately once some finishing touches are added.
