MFH Lotus 79 Version B

Post by wastgate »

New project for the 2022 and first 1/43 after a long time, I immediately reinforced the low front suspensions because it's very easy to bend.

Been playing around with the Tameo version. Really looking forward to seeing your build of the MFH version. Their kits have so much detail even at 1/43.

I will definately keep an eye on this build, interesting to see the differences between Tameo and MFH.
Take a stand!
