Re: Tamiya 1/12 312T4 Resurrection

Great, great job!!! It´s sooo nice to "resurrect" (yes the word is quite adequate) old models instead of just trashing them.
BTW, what red you used?

Re: Hachette F1 1/24th scale Championship models

Something like that, Tommy. But hardly this or a sentimental attachment might have an influence. :D though who knows, I’d also like to believe that. But yes, the original Ixo stem was an 80s Portuguese company named Vittesse. They started with rally cars. Not great but yes a blow of fresh air. Then ...

Re: Hachette F1 1/24th scale Championship models

I'm tempted, but I dunno.... E Beware, Eric. You buy 3 or 4 out of curiosity and you end up trashing all the 1/20 collection you might have.

Re: Help on Lancia Delat, Delta Integrale, Super Delta

Had not grasped (or imagined) the idea was a trans. No, no way it’s just the rear spoiler that counts. Wheel arches are wider but mostly “different “ as between Quattro I and Quattro A2. The transition with the “standard” body is curved. Good thing is the new arches cover and overlap old ones. Bad i...
