Your CN7 looks so beautiful. That’s a great collection you have. Fernando has more LSR’s planned.... Yes, I heard that from him earlier this year, it's exciting news! Decals for a few were already done, I got a list of the subjects that I haven't before me now (and probably should not disclose openly anyway). I hope they will materialize soon rather than later, I can't wait for them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Can't believe I haven't been here before, especially after following the WiP thread, so I'm pleased it has resurfaced, well deserving of another showing & a joy to behold.

retroClassic Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Hi, this looks great and very detailed. I do designs for the Campbell family and have been asked to reproduce this poster for them and Castrol, which is lo-res. So i was wondering if you would be so kind to take some pictures of your model at the same angle so that i can have something detailed to work from? Hope you will be able to help Many thanks Adam 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noel Smith Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 A very nice model of a very sleek looking record car in its day and a refreshing change from all the more usual racing car kits. Incidentally, the retro Castrol poster that Adam placed on here reminded me of a Jack Vettriano painting of the car that many art stores were selling as prints a few years back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jack Vettriano painting is beautiful. I have actually done a t-shirt design using the one of the families photos which is very similar. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head in the clouds. Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Works of art, no more, no less. When I see builds like this from the golden age of speed records I feel that I will end up going off on another modelling tangent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done a couple of them by now and enjoyed them all a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toftdale Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 I'm glad this thread has resurfaced as it was originally posted before I joined the forum. Absolutely stunning work of a very historic vehicle - Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
