Brendan Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 This a kit of Scale Productions Lola T 98/10 Judd. Got this kit for Christmas. (My first finished build for '09) Kit is long out of production. If you can find one, I would highly recommend it. This is one of my favorite Lola chassis, though I wish they would have done it with a different front end. P/E and resin were very nicely done along with the aluminum pieces. The pewter was cleanly cast as well. Had some problems with the decals due to the fact they were stored incorrectly. Ended up becoming very brittle and had a tendency to crack...a lot. Paint was Tamiya's TS-14 decanted and airbrushed and Tamiya's clear over the decals, airbrushed as well. Rims were painted in Alclad Polished Aluminum. Brakes were painted Alclad Steel with different shades of acrylics. Exhaust was painted with Alclad Jet Exhaust and Magnesium. Feel free to comment. Was a fun build. Build link. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=16860 Added antennas and antenna mounts from an after market company in my parts pile. Also added a wind screen that they do not tell you to put on but is on the real car.
Raul_Perez Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 Looking good, Brendan! It's just not right that you can finish a model that fast!! It takes me that long just to get them out of the wrapper!! Later,
Brendan Posted January 9, 2009 Author Posted January 9, 2009 Looking good, Brendan! It's just not right that you can finish a model that fast!! It takes me that long just to get them out of the wrapper!! Later, It's skill and a lot of free time! At least I think it's skill. It could be just boredom.
RatRod Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 Another great build Brendan!!! I love these, and the older GTP cars. I used to do all of 'em in 1/43, but have pretty much gave up on that scale lately (old age, and eye's.... ) I always love watching you work your magic on these things!!! Do you ever go the the NNL in Portland?

Do you ever go the the NNL in Portland? Thanks for everyone's comments. As for going to the NNL in Portland, I have never been. It's always at the wrong time of year for me. I usually go to the NNL West as I have more friends and family there. I'm in almost the perfect spot between Portland and San Francisco/San Jose area since it's about 400 miles either way. I would like to make it up there. Maybe this year.
