Wow, that didnt take long, nice job, I need to get one,  were did you get at again?  HLJ?

[lanesteele240]

Yeah. It was killing me to start it. Not much to build tho. I got it off ebay. 20 something shipped. Details are great, tolerances are tight

Great one day build but im gonna strech it to two or three because of work

Cool.

 

I have to wonder why they molded the driver figure in clear?

[Draggon]

Nice work! I saw this in my Hobby Search newsletter and was interested.

Steering wheel???

[cobraman]

Cool little kit but yes, where is the steering wheel ? Need to put the driver in first ?

[lanesteele240]

I was waiting to put the wheel on after i set him in. I painted the clear body and it would not take. I guess i need to some how etch the glass before i prime it. Anybody know a way to do that. I wish they would have made the body out of styrene. The model would be close to finishes.

I have been wanting this kit for a while now, I knew nothing of Ayrton Senna(not really a open wheel fan) until ESPN did a program on him and it was very interesting.  I am not sure why you can't just sand the clear part's just like you would any other plastic piece?  I alway's start by washing my pieces with warm water and some dish soap, that get's the residue off, then a light sand and primer as you have mentioned. Good luck, look's awesome so far.

Very cool little kit!

 

Being 1/20 scale, I wonder how it would look with a 1/24 scale car/truck? Got one handy you could post a poser pic of?
