Added a little Lotus name plate I conjured up from the kit's sprues

I had fun with this little kit and will collect a few more, just hard to get ahold of them
This one is on its way from HLJ

Cheers guys, this SIG has been fun

I didn't expect to get into them at all but they are actually a ton of fun
Thanks for the paint comment, went through hell on that but learned a good lesson
How is the Ferrari situation for you????

Cracking build and finish there mate. As someone who seems to have no end of problems with getting yellow to cover properly over large areas, that's a great finish. I will conquer yellow and white one day...bound to be something silly that's stopping me getting it right

Well done again

Thanks Nathe,
I still can't say I am conquering anything paint wise, this is far from a perfect paint job
There are so many variables in spraying it is a little daunting

Yea I'm in the same boat, get the mix just right one time then the next can't get it right for love nor money

In the process of moving right now. Everything is still packed up. Looking for a Fujimi F-40 LM car to take some parts from. I finally got an airbrush, now just waiting on a compressor. Trying to finish the R8, then I have to decide on which model in the stash to do next. Decisions, decisions. lol
