Heller Ligier JS11 1/12 - update 01 May
Re: Heller Ligier JS11 1/12
Really great, Malc!
One thing not to forget is the rocker arms. Elliptycal/oval cross section on the real thing, rectangular on the heller. My guess is that they may be taken to good shape by simply wrapping them with 0.3mm poly sheet...
I tried to improve mine by simply snading and engraving the originals, but not too happy...
PS: gonna look my paper/books pics right now! period pics

Hi James,
Do not worry, I have a plan for the suspension arms and more!
I really need a good picture of the top of the fuel tank, but any good detail photos are all welcome!

I'll be following this build with interest as I've struggled to get this hell er a kit completed a few years back. Like what you are doing to improve the rear suspension as the original is very weak.

Looking very good ! Only I managed to destroy a contact Pin located to underside of the contact Point of front Suspension and right front Brake of my Tamiya JS11. Luckily the Carpet Monster didn't have a new Victim and the contact Pin is saved, God I'm f#¤@ed .
