    @andae23 – looks nice !
    the good thing about the black painting of the lotus, you can “erase” the white edges of the paper with a black marker. worked pretty well for mine.

    Worked on it for the past two hours, and I only managed to do 1 front wheel! Those wheels are just killing me :)! I just need to do two more wheels, the rear wing and step 6, so I think I will be done by Friday (no picture today – sorry).

    I just need to do the sidepods on step 4, but the airbox/engine cover has ended up a right mess in my opinion. It was just so small and fiddly and would not really stick.
    Sidepods next, they look at nightmare :/

    Finally finished my Lotus E20 – yeah :D. It took a lot of time, effort, patience, and though I’m not 100% happy with the way it turned out, it was still a lot of fun to work on!

    ps I lend my real camera to someone, so as soon as I get it back, I’ll post some more and better pictures.

    Νice f1fanatic rear wing! Awesome car!

    @keithcollantine Haven’t you read? That will be their official livery from the Belgian GP onwards!

    As long as they’ll take an F1 Fanatic mug and a few hundred back copies of Autosport as payment.

    I expect naming rights on the constructor too so they’ll have to race as F1 Fanatic-Renaults. And the chassis is to be renamed KC01.

    Most importantly though, how is the steering?

  • Profile picture of andae23 andae23 said 9 months, 1 week ago:

    @repete86 Severe understeer up to a point that the car won’t steer into a corner at all!

    No wonder Kimi’s been complaining.

    AMAZING!! I can’t wait to try. I have just found some appropiate paper after asking in several stores. Six sheets for $42 (about 1 dollar and 50 cents), now some UHU and scissors!
