Tamiya's Lotus 79
OK, I will join to F1M speed build with Tamiya's Lotus 79.
I got kit in last Friday, and I also got Tubu design's decal and Tamiya's photo etched parts.
Note: I'm busy man, but I'll try to finish this project untill end of June.

Re: Tamiya's Lotus 79
Are these Gold Foil decals? Isn't that a bit wrong? Should be that biscuit color...
Best wishes,

Re: Tamiya's Lotus 79
Hi,
The correct color is the biscuit one which I used to print my conversion decals for the 1/20 Lotus 79 (JPS) as you can see below.
Regards,
Michel

Re: Tamiya's Lotus 79
I only build one part of engine parts, and I cut out most of parts.
I always put parts which is I cut out in ziplock.
Sorry, first picture is little dark.

Re: Tamiya's Lotus 79
Anybody else notice all the different detail kits that Acu-stion is making for this kit? Carburators (?), wheels, suspension and more...
