Dirk's James Bond Lotus esprit from the movie: The Spy Who Loved Me

This is a build i did a while back. Of course almost right after I built it there was a release of a styrene kit for this very subject. Oh well...

What we have here is the James Bond Lotus esprit as seen in the James Bond blockbuster movie: The Spy Who Loved Me

The kit

The kit came on two sheets of paper, one for the car and one for the base.





Folding the body of the car









Building the aqua thrusters



Dive planes in place



I stole these rockets from my 1/72 Airfix Typhoon kit. I cut a small hole in the back of the car, just enough for the rocket to fit and added some cotton for the bubbles. I have to say I'm pleased with the results.












Thanks for looking

That is brilliant Dirk.

Several people I know have been building paper models. Yours looks great, Dirk!
