Hi , so I finish the Tyrrell 003 from the 1971 Monaco GP driven by Jackie Stewart , and as I have still time , I decided to make another entry ...my 4th ...and doing a Figure in 1/12 from Tamiya of a Motor Racing Team Driver , and will try to do a Jackie Stewart version :-)

This is the kit , I buy it recently on an ebay auction , it was really to place near the Tyrrell so here it is :

Image

The same 'guy' could do JAckie Stewart , Ronnie Petersonn , Emerson Fittipaldi and I think Clay Regazonni ...only the colours and decals change :lol:

Image

Jackie Stewart ...a light blue , even I saw photos of the 1971 Monaco Grand Priz and he used a white colour racing suit ...

Image

A bag with everything you need to a nice build

Image

seems nice

Image

Instructions, basically the front page is how to paint figures, some nice tips here !

Image

How to paint eyes faces , detail , shadows ...very nice !

Image

one figure on how to build the figure

Image

Decals on the other figure

Image

And yes here the Ferrari one mention Clay Regazzoni ...nice memories of seeing them racing some year later than 1971 ...as I was 4 years old ...still remember the awfull accident where Ronnie died , still remember watchng that in TV ...well those were the days in F1 racing ...gentlemen drivers !

Two sprues

Image

HE looks like Emerson Fittipaldi , does he ?

Image

DEcals

Image

Nice and easy build

Image

Yes it is Emerson ... :wtf:

Image

The helmet seems a little undersizes for such a big head ... :lol: , maybe it is from his kid !

Image

The type of kit where we must place soem putty on the joints , still for the age and type very nice and clean kit !

Image

He really looks like Em....oh well you know who I'm talking :scratch::

Hey ready for primer and start painting it :-)

In thsi phot you noticed that he uses a yellow screen in the helmet ...I painted the galss in smoke ...

Image

Also clearely the racing suit is white

Image

and has some stripes on the left side ...must paint that and also the clan colours around the helmet ...

Image

Nice racing shoes that time ...
