Because the nosecone of the Lotus took some effort (3 times allready) I decided to make the diorama for the Lotus with Jim Clark. I have some reference pictures and wanted the Lotus in the pitlane Zandvoort. I did not want to build the complete pitboxes, so I made the wall from Balsafoam and the tarmac from Millyput.
