This one was finished up in April Another great little kit from Airfix with reasonable detail considering its a 1:32 scale kit. Finished in Tamiya red & white aerosol and clear-coated in Zero 2K - it did require a lot of sanding and polishing out, but it didn't burn through anywhere. Pictured also with its competitor from Airfix. I'm guessing these were designed to be converted to slot car racers. WIP can be seen at this link:

Chassis is half built, went together quite well, but some of it should have been assembled before painting. Interior floor pan had to fill a lot of injector pin indents, they are still faintly visible, but I might flock the floor anyway, there are some more obvious injector pin marks, but these I didn't bother to fill, as they wont be visible in the end. Seats finished in a medium grey

Thanks guys, much appreciated!

Hey guys, thanks for the comments!

This one was finished a few weeks ago but has been in construction for a few years. WIP build can be found here: Finished in Zero Paints - a few coats of Pagani Metallic Red & a few coats of Zero Smoke (to darken it) then Zero 2K on top. The headlamps were heavily modified, but did not turn out as I intended. However, its looks OK on the shelf...

This was finished late 2023, but I've just now had a chance to take finished pics in a homemade photo booth. WIP can be found here: This is the best finish 2K paint I've ever acheived out the airbush - if it wasn't for the 3 or 4 dust spots, I wouldn't have needed to polish. Not sure why, but I've not been able to achieve the same finish since. Other than magnets in the engine hood, its OOB Coloured in Zero Paints interior Cream. De-chromed & used Alclad II chrome over glossed black - it had to be done a few times as the chrome coat was fragile & easily removed through handling. https://images2.imgbox.com/84/bf/h9zy6vBq_o.jpg https://images2.imgbox.com/51/a1/F1j35af3_o.jpg

Thanks Jordan, although im not sure that mustard was an option on this version with any wheel colour.

Chassis required lots of filler inside and out - some of I couldn't do due to access, but came out OK using Tamiya filler. The wheels required clean up inside the cut out - and I oversprayed how they came with Alclad Aluminium - they came out OK. I was considering the box art wheels, but decided it wasn't worth the effor of masking. Lots of Chassis bits finished shown in the last pic, ready for assembly.

Time to start a new build! A classic Range Rover Will be sprayed in a mustardy yellow. I think this is a 90's car, but thecolour is from the previous generation version - like an 80's car.

Really wanted an RS as a riad car, your build of this rally car is amazing. Love it!

Tis a beautiful build, and even better photos!

Very sharp build of a racing stang!

Cool build! Very sharp inside and out

Sweet build!

This is an amazingly creative build, love it!

I am partial to a capri! Cool build

Toot your horn all you like! It's an excellent build!

Stunning so far and the paint is gorgeous

Very sharp build!

Lovely even red base coat, rest of the build is cool! Really like this kit!

Agree, amazing build so far, and the paint is perfect!

Thanks Spike!

It's an absolute stunner! Looks like you've put a lot of work in here, and it's paid off.

TO adjust the ride height, I added some olasticard to raise the axle bar by 3mm at the front and 2mm at the back, thenadded some blocks under the interior tb to stick to the chassis, as it was leaving a gap. TO my mind, the ride height has been corrected, and it looks a lot better as a GT then as an SUV... Next up will post ome finished pictures!

Final touches are now done! I made an exhaust tip with large diamter alu tube - I did thin-down the end as much as possible, and then put the wing and diffuser in place. I'm calling this done now, I do need to take some proper pictures and post in finished models! Really happy how it turned out for a kit that cost less than £20!
