No, all by myself, I didn't download it. I don't have a printer (actually I have, but it doesn't have the ink).

Oh because I was thinking about making one like that

I'm warning you: it's really hard to make it all by oneself, but the satisfaction from making it is tremendous.

Man that's nice. I love the hubs and the mirrors! Really cool.

How did you attach the wheels to the axle and the axle to the chassis?

Chassis is made of cardboard, I made two holes in wheel alcoves and threaded a toothpick with cut points through them. Then I just glued wheels to toothpick, but before that I sanded those cut points with abrasive paper for better glueing surface.

How did you make the wheels concave like that?

I don't know how to explain that... You have to make some extra length of spokes. Then I bent them outside a bit.

Thanks, and thanks for the fav!
Esprit is quite angular, so it wouldn't be difficult to build one. Good luck!

I changed my mind, I will build a mk II vw golf, I like that idea better than the lotus, and the design is simpler.

That's also a good one. I wanted to make Lancia Delta HF Integrale before Polonez, which is also quite simple, but finally I decided to make FSO.

I've just drawn the front side back and top sides for reference and have all the dimensions.
Thanks!

I drew the body using blueprints, some elements like wheels, side mirrors, fog lights etc., then cut it out, I cut the chassis out of a cardboard, I glued all this together and that's it.

Awesome! you did all the drawing yourself? withouth references?
Dude that's hard. The part where you have to design and measure it in a way so all the parts would come together nicely. But why did you need two compasses? and how big is it? (the lenght and witdth or something) I can't imagine, how big is the 1:26 scale

Dzięki za radę, nie pomyślałem o podklejaniu...
Spoiler ma dziury, to mnie chyba najbardziej razi, niestety mój błąd - początkowo przewidziałem te boczki spoilera jako całość z całym bocznym panelem, później je uciąłem i miały być takie listki przy spoilerze, które potem bym zagiął. Niestety źle obliczyłem ten spoiler, musiałem całość trochę zmodyfikować i je też uciąłem.
Lakierem żadnym niestety nie dysponuję na chwilę obecną, ale pomyślimy...
Jako baza posłużył blueprint Borewicza, który potem lekko zmodyfikowałem na przejściówkę, korzystając ze zdjęć. Mam zeskanowany ten projekt, jednak prawda jest taka, że jest to zaledwie pół samochodu, bo wiele elementów opracowałem później (całe kartonowe podwozie, koła, lusterka i wydech) i nie mam gotowych wzorów tych części.
Myślałem już nad kolejnym, także samoróbką, tym razem Toyota Corolla AE86. Chciałbym też zrobić wnętrze.
