RB7

[Brudda]

Red Bull RB7. Hope I can post this. It is actually a rc car. But you can build it as a static kit. They supply a static show body and wings plus a clear body and wings for racing the car as a rc car. Since I do not plan to run this car , I am building it as a static kit. It is very large! 1/7 scale DeAgostini kit. Built up the chassis and now fitting the body panels to the chassis. Sand, prime then paint. Apply decals then reclear. I have no idea where to put this after it’s finished. The picture of the tires, the small tire is 1/25 scale. I have put the clear body next to the f1 car and also put a 1/25 amt cobra body next to it to show the scale of this thing. Here is what I have done so far.

Thank you Chris. Going to try to paint tomorrow. Have to prep the shed. 10 by 20. Only 47 tomorrow so I have to heat the shed. A lot to paint blue and yellow. Mixed the paint from color systems. BMW paint. The rb7 is so big. This is the biggest model I have painted. Going to take most of the morning. I will clear the blue and yellow. Put decals on ,then reclear Saturday, I hope.

Painted a lot of parts on the Red Bull f1 car. Tomorrow will be a lot of decals, then reclear with 2 coats

Just finished the front and rear wings

[Brudda]

Decaled and recleared . 4 Coates of urethane clear. Trying a new clear. Used all of my expensive clears. This one is very good and inexpensive. Seams to take longer to dry. This was so big to paint. The biggest model I have painted. No air brush here. Need a spray gun for this one.

Next are all of the little pieces to decal and reclear.

[Chris Smith]

The Red Bull car is finished. There will be glamour shots tomorrow and I will post it as finished. Was a fun and exciting build. The car is a good representation of the Red Bull F1 car. This car is not a exact copy of a car in a certain race etc. A whole new set of building skills for a Model  so large. Thank you to Mark and DeAgostini for the model. This car will be on the DeAgostini site.

P.S. The Yorkie will not be on the DeAgostini site.
