Waynes MFH xjr9 wip

[vassa]

Hi guys , here is my wip the jag. My speed is nowhere as fast as Alexs' and I am not as advanced with the kit as he is either. First up I have just played around with parts in step 1, abit of painting and decaling as well as some extra rivets being added and some minor extras to start .










I still need to give the carbon fiber a clean and spray of semi gloss. Thanks for looking

[Jeff]

off to a great start, Wayne!

Looks great Wayne. If I could make a suggestion. On the access panels located in the door sills maybe another layer of carbon decal with the pattern laid out in a different direction so that it does not look so uniform.





There are more pictures here that I took in 1990 during the build up of the 1990 LeMans winner at TWR in the USA. They are in the middle pages of this link

Good luck with your build. I look forward to starting mine when I get it

Just a heads up to all the TWR fans out there,if you are looking for good photo reference on this car and all
of TWR's efforts , there is a book published by Jaguar Heritage Trust titled "TWR Jaguar prototype racers"
The authors name is Leslie Thurston and it is a must have.

It is indeed a very interesting read, regardless of whether you are building this kit.
This build is shaping up nicely, will be following with interest...
