Hi all. This is my first post here, so I hope it works and is in the right place. This is my 'cutaway' Tamiya 1/20 Lotus 102b, driven by Mika Hakkinen during the 1991 season. The aim of the build was to see the extra detail without having to touch the model. I didn't build it to win prizes (some of the detail isnt the best to look at up close), but rather to express an idea of how to display something differently. It's more about the overall effect. I hope you all like it. I entered it at my "local" show- Australian Model Expo, held annually in Melbourne. One of the judges liked it enough to ask to feature it on his website and YouTube channel, check it out here:

Yet another Revell 29 build! Went MOSTLY box stock with this one, but with a few little tweaks... I flipped the front cross member to lower the front end, swapped the wheels and tires for Boyd Alumacoupe ones and replaced the kit rear shocks for some scratchbuilt ones. Added some photoetch and shot the paint with Createx airbrush colors, Pearl Ex powders and Testors clear topcoat. Oh, and swapped the drum brakes for some resin disk brakes. Ended up with a kinda 90s look, so I used a 90s era correct license plate and added a tinted windshield and gave a very light pink tint to the headlight lenses to match some of the colors used in the build. Build thread here, for anyone curious: Thanks for looking!
