Lotus 107 No Decal - All painted

Post by Badi »

This was the beginning, since I dont have the pictures. I painted the yellow and green as first step.

I masked and painted the dark yellow and later the dark green. So, I used 4 different colors.

Finally I painted black and part of the missing dark yellow....

I know it is missing the dark green on the Head Rest and for sure, there will be some correction in the paiting before the decals.

Not an easy paint job, but I am satisfaied with the result.

I've got this in my stash with a replacement set of Shunko decals as the Tamiya decals have turned yellow big time.

Very nice work, superb masking work on a tricky livery. I know exactly how tricky because I'm doing exactly the same thing.
