Kit Basher Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 (edited) Tamiya kit. The paint is a mix of Testors square bottle Green and Gloss Black. A very nice kit. Thanks for looking. Edited April 8, 2018 by Kit Basher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89AKurt Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Looks great! I've had to mix for a proper BRG before. If I wasn't so obsessed about Ferraris, would get this kit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standing next to one, the roof is about the height of my navel. If I ever did get in one, I'm sure I'd never get out again. Thanks, Ray!

vamach1 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Great job. Now if Tamiya can put an engine back there why can't we get a Pantera with an engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake45 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Very nice! And I've found you can mix up almost any shade of green you want from Testor square bottle green and black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 That’s a beautiful job on that Lotus, Hugh. I saw one of these on the road recently and I had forgotten just how low they are... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was fun mixing the paint, I just kept adding black until I liked the color. I got lucky on the quantity, I had none left over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I could have fit when I was 18... It was fun to watch it race, tho. Fast! Edited April 9, 2018 by Kit Basher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
