Re: WIP - Larrousse LC90
Hi Greg,
Thank you for your encouragement. I am glad that you like the work.
Here is another minor step. The radiators are painted and the hose clamps and pipes are fixed. I use Vallejo Air alumimum and Tamiya acrylic X-14 sky blue. I still need to find time to paint the floor.

Re: WIP - Larrousse LC90
Looks nice, well done!
What did you use to represent the clamps? Silver tape or real metal band?

Hi Thomas,
The clamps are made from kitchen aluminum foil cut into fine stripe. I try the Micro Metal Foil Adhesive and it did not stick. I ended up using superglue. The screws of the clamps are made from a stripped 30AWG wire-wrap wire.

Thank you for your explanation. I had the same problem with adhesion and ended up using superglue as well.

Re: WIP - Larrousse LC90
I have always liked that car. You are putting in an awful lot of work! But it looks worth it and keep going with the details!
