Very nice ! Thanks for posting, Rick. Right up my alley.

I took some time off from card modeling, worked on a few painting projects, such as a 40mm flat of Alexander the Great. My batteries are recharged now and I'm back to paper. I want to finish the Wien (pre-dreadnought battleship) before getting sidetracked on any cars again though.

Hi all,

I am working on the chassis of the NSX, and I noticed that there are two numbers in the wrong place.

Numbers 30 and 32 are switched on the build diagram or parts sheets.

I am going with the numbers being in the wrong place on the build diagram.

So far everything fits fine, working out nicely

Rick

Well, I just wanted to let everyone know, I have made that step.

I have edge colored parts of the kit, I know, long time coming, and about time too.

The pieces are the rear axle box and bottom with the 4 splitters/diffusers, I also colored the main chassis part , and the front axle box.

I will be posting pictures only at the end when the kit is done, this way i won't have the pressure of you guys pushing me for more photos.

the pit box and the racebabes will be built too.

Rick

You say pushing you for photos like it's a bad thing.

It looks that the offerings are expanding,

a fueling rig, spare tires(wet and dry), pit wall, and the team tent

Usual place for them.
