Jordan EJ10
With today marking 9 years when I officially posted this build here, I thought I would post this update saying it’s still alive. It has been in and out of the BP box, moved house twice and major issues matching paint.
Luckily I found the original post which helped sort the paint. I used Pactra RC Fluro yellow, but I could never recall was it white primer or grey, along with when sprayed the paint was separating and just horrible.
But now it’s painted, needs some tidying up and then put it all together. It’s a great looking little car, so fingers crossed it fits together.
Here’s the link to the original post… viewtopic.php?t=23540&hilit=Jordan+ej10

Re: Jordan EJ10
Looks beautiful! I remember purchasing this kit when it was first released and being so disappointed. The plastic had a weird softness to it and the tires were just horrible. I often wished someone would come out with a resin set. I’ll be very interested to see how they come out per your plan in the original post.

Re: Jordan EJ10
Lovely lovely stuff Shayne, that's a great finish you've got on there. Those early Jordan's were so eye catching and very much stood out on the grid during that era of F1.
I built the Treasure Hunt 1/20 kit almost 15 years ago now and I've no doubt the Revell kit was a damn sight easier to put together. I used Mr Color 176 Fluoro Yellow which matched the kit decals great, it still gets a little dust down now and then and appears on the club table at shows, the colour scheme always attracts attention.

Re: Jordan EJ10
Shayne's EJ10 is stunning.
All the decals look to adhere very good to the model. What a nice work!
Can't wait to see the finished car.
The early Revell F1 kits all have horrible groove tires. However, I got their later version that were great as replacement. I just wrote to Revell indicating which kit I have and the replacement was shipped to me free.
