publicsafety Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Sexy... Are the lights part of the kit, aftermarket or scratch? Just wondering how you did them as I wish to start putting them in my models. Love to hear tips from the pros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ra7c7er Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Awesome car. I think this one is from Tamiya but I keep wanting Revell to reissue their version. I had a poster of the Jag on my wall when I was kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilone Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Nice build. very clean. do you by any chance still have the directions to this? i got this kit off my friend and it's missing the directions so if you could send me a pm with the directions scanned it would be very helpful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

made007 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 sergey, why dont you make a wip of the led lights mod?, to see how you did that ,what components did you use? etc., it would help a lot of people here, also that the best jaguar xj220 i ever seen, great job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordairgtar Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Nice Jaguar, Sergey. One question: I would like to see 1/25th scale kits of Russian cars. I was just wondering why no such thing is made. A lot of aviation and military stuff from Russia, but no cars except for the 1/35th scale stuff from WWII and the Revolution.

Sergey Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share Posted February 6, 2011 sergey, why dont you make a wip of the led lights mod?, to see how you did that ,what components did you use? Good question, Jose. It is not so hard to do. First of all you should know nominal voltage of Light Emission Diodes you got. If you linking them in line you should summ their voltages. If you linking them in parallel - you should supply the voltage jf one LED. And do not parallel LEDs with different voltages. Also use LEDs of same current (aprox. 20 mA). 2 lordairgtar: Well, perhaps our kit manufacturers do not feel potential in developing and salling Russian car kits. Perhaps our cars are so bad, that there is nothing to proud of to reflect it in plastic. We learned so well to make weapon and forgot about civilian products. I guess the same in hobby (though I make only model cars and US trucks). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Amazing build Sergey! This is the best detailed and executed model I've seen in a long time! Excellent work! This deserves to be on the cover of a magazine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christian-w Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Wow! I know, it's a couple of years ago, that this model was presented. but I got the Tamiya Jaguar as a present and so I'm looking for some ideas as inspiration. This kit is awesome. The opening doors are great and the lights! Awesome! Love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
