Jackie and Helen Stewart 1/43 conversion sculpt – 1960’s & 70’s fashion look!
A familiar sight around the F1 paddock and grid in the 60’s and 70’s was Jackie and Helen Stewart. They both always dressed very trendily and sported the latest fashions in their attire. Continue reading “Jackie and Helen Stewart 1/43 conversion sculpt – 1960’s & 70’s fashion look!”
Figures on the “Bay” this week….. (updated – March 3rd)
One of my Jackie Stewart 1/43 scale metal figures which I initially modified with Miliput and then recast by hand in a limited run. Continue reading “Figures on the “Bay” this week….. (updated – March 3rd)”
Chopping and changing!!
I’ve a number of conversions on the bench at the moment; in 1/18 scale, a resin Auto Union driver figure (intended to be Rosemeyer – we shall see?) which I’m modelling new arms for using Milliput around some wire aramatures. Continue reading “Chopping and changing!!”

Jackie Stewart 43rd scale
I got most of the details added to this Denizen figure over the week-end. I decided to paint it up to represent Jackie Stewart – so hopefully with the addition of the tartan on the helmet (which I painted on) and perched beside the 1969 Matra (a Quartzo model which I removed the driver from) it goes some way to looking like JYS ! I’m not able to pin it down exactly, but midway through 1969 I believe Jackie moved from th Buco open face to the full face Bell helmet, so this figure represents the attire he would have … Continue reading Jackie Stewart 43rd scale
Jackie Stewart – Matra MS10 Pencil sketch
Still working with the pencil I worked up this image of Jackie Stewart driving what I think is one of the nicest looking of the Matra F1 cars. Continue reading Jackie Stewart – Matra MS10 Pencil sketch
