Funkychiken Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Looks great so far! I have a question or two though... Are you clearcoating before and after decals? If so, what clear coat are you using, and do you suffer from fit issues where the two gloss coats are too thick? Cheers! Great detail inside those doors! Are they hand painted details, or lots of masking and spraying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a few fit issues because of the way the kit was made. Very poor! I had painted everything with a brush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks buddy!! I love yours as well the detail is outstanding. The warp is actually carbon fiber. Pictures doesn't do it any justice. i have a question though. How do you do your lines? And what size electric wire and is that clay on the ends? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really know what you mean about, "clay", I never use clay on any of my models, and as for your other questions about wires, I use ALOT of different wires, and they can be all different depending on what they are replicating.......its kind of a loaded question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeroenM3 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 The CF weave looks abit big for the car, but it does look cool! reminds me of Manny Khosbin's Huayra Hermes edition (if you dont know his garage line-up, i advise you all to check it out! insane super and hypercar collections, perhaps one of the best in the world even!) Eager to see the finished piece! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eager to see the finished piece! It's slightly bigger yes. However, it's a real carbon fiber weave. The 1/24 cf sticker is not carbon fiber. It looks really good in person, I will try and make a video of her soon. Mannys car is my favorite, that's why I chose this carbon fiber color, it's the closest match out there, this car is inspired 80% from his car, as well as prestige motor sports. 3 hours ago, Dann Tier said: Hows the Pagani going, bud?! It's coming along, I'm pairing the wheels. Will post up progress pics soon. I'm come here everyday to look at your progress bro. I miss say, you did an awesome job with the figment, and documentation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
