Mr James
Beautiful paint and weathered look. More pics would be great 👍

So many decals. Don't be alarmed by the missing hit of green on the air box. I stuck my big fat thumb on that and ripped it off. I do have a spare sheet of decals so I'll get that repaired.

Sticky thumbs happen to the best of us. Nice work so far.

Marcel
That looks like a nice vintage Tamiya kit. Which driver version will you make? Looking forward to the final result.

Kyle DeHart
Thanks George! A ton of decals with this one means many opportunities to mess things up. I'll get it straightened out.

Thank you Marcel. I have to say this is really an excellent kit. Not fiddly at all, even the rear wing element gave me no issues. And it's a lovely car. As for the driver I believe I will go with Zanardi. I was never a fan of him as a driver but after his horrific accident and what he's done since has been most impressive.

Coming along nicely, despite the thumb issue. I built this some years ago and also did a Lotus 107C from it, they're nice kits, model on

Kyle DeHart
Thank you! I wouldn't mind having the full lineup of 107s. I like how the car looks and it had some excellent period liveries. I agree. Nice kits. Thanks again!

I like your choice. Alex wasn't great in F1 for some reason, though quite succesful in other series. But he has had some major accidents to recover from. Not just his racing accident, which he has handled remarkably well, but also a very severe cycling accident in 2020 and a fire at his house in 2022 which also left him hospitalized. I've read that he can communicate, but I'm afraid he's not made a full recovery at all from his cycling accident. Still a very tough and inspirational man.

Kyle DeHart
Yes indeed. My thoughts exactly Marcel. He was a remarkably talented driver despite the issues in F1. He came back with a vengeance following his horrific racing accident. And then the cycling accident and I had heard about the fire. He has gone through a lot and has at least attempted to come back and remain positive each time. So I felt it would be cool to have this model of his.
