krishna.iskandana Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Hello again guys, I'm gonna close this year with an old and quite rare kit, a Lotus Esprit S1 from Nichimo. The body was spraypainted with tamiya gun metal grey ( I have been very fond of this color in my recent builds ) and then clearcoated with Gloss Clear from Mr Hobby as usual. It was a simple curbside model, hence the kit came with a half engine which only visible from the top. I will post my 2012 builds recap next monday, on December 31st Let me know what you think and thanks for looking. Best Regards Krishna Iskandana Perth, Western Australia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scalemodelworld Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Beautiful build. Looks just as good as Bond's white version! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominik Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 i like it! The color looks good on it. What about the wheels? Are they in the kit? Is it possible, to make a closeup from the enginebay? I have both following generations of the esprit in my shelf - like the style of them.

mangodart Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Nice build, I'ld prefer the original wheels but that's my taste. How about the outside mirror, looks like it comes from a bicycle. Are they the original ones ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lownslow Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Nice build that color is sweet too, the wheels modernize the car well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
