    This is coming along real nice. Almost looks like a 1/12 scale with the details you’ve done.

    Nice build. Very clean. Wild how the silver decals stand out on the black background. Really pops.

    Exquisite build. You need to add a driver figure for that “rolling shutter “ shot and it would be the “bees knees”.

    Clean and mean. Everything about it is right.

    Sweet build Anton. I especially like the wheels. They fill in the fender openings real nice.

    At home with its rival and a few others.

    Tried to copy the 1:1 car with removable pins for the rear spoiler.

    Finally finished this one up. Started it back in 2018 but was away from modeling for a few years. Life has a way of doing that. I spent most of the last year building 1/25 scale kits to get back in the groove. This was my first trans kit and it fought me a few times but I’m calling it done.

    To quote a certain F1 driver: ”Simply lovely”. 👍🏻

    Thank you Bruce. Actually finishing this one up pretty quickly. It was in moth balls for 5 years. One thing I’m pissed about are all of the cracks in the clear coat on the body. When I started working on it again they didn’t look too bad to the naked eye and they still don’t but when you take a picture they look terrible. I should have wet sanded the clear and re-coated it but I didn’t notice how bad it looked until I had alot of parts on it and took some pictures. Then it was too late. I didn’t want to mess anything up. Now I’m at a point where I just want to get it done.

    Almost done with this one. Have to install the windscreen and mirrors and finish up the rear spoiler. Been a long time coming.

    Finished up the rear suspension. I used the RB Motion 1/12 Lotus 49 Rear Upright Assembly kit. Next will be installing the exhaust system then side pod oil coolers. I’m also printing a fuel filter that goes on top of the engine between the intake trumpet and reservoir tank. looks like this:

    Pretty cool kit for its age. I’ve never seen it before. Looking forward to seeing it done.

    Enjoying your progress Anton. I have the C7.R in my stash. Was going to build it OOB but you’ve got me rethinking that.
  18. nickfzr61
    A few more progress shots. The front wheels are on because they keep the model from resting on the front brake duct while I’m working on it and I am too lazy to take them off for the pictures

    The engine is installed. Working on the lines and getting the transaxle ready to attach.

    Very nice build of an iconic car. I should do one to go with my TLB 55.

    Thanks for all the comments. Seems the name is unanimous. With a twist I’ve officially named it: “The Sinister Minister” of the church of speed.
  22. nickfzr61
    Very nice build. Great attention to detail. Your work is really paying off.
  23. nickfzr61
    This is coming along nice. Can’t wait to see your weathering. Should be a real nice model when done. 👍🏻

    Thank you Bruce. Simplistic compared to some things people do on this site but it works.

    Adjusted the rear suspension supports. I cut the mounts at the lower point and white glued them in place. I then trimmed each post and epoxied them in place. After the epoxy cured the pieces were removed, primed and painted then installed.
