  1. So, it doesn't look like much, but this is several hours work! The kit came with a resin cast of the rear spoiler, but one of the brackets was misformed, the other wasn't very robust, and in the wrong place. also, the edges had cast voids, so I've out out some styrene and glued in place, needs to be filled & sanded smooth, and i've scratch-built some brackets, they are way too thick for the scale, but I can't make anything smaller, and i want it to actually hold the wing! I've decided not to re-add the front grille of the car, it's going to match the re-build of the car as per photos I have rather than the Longhust version as raced.
  2. Nice clean build, looks sweet!

  20. He is quite annoying, but it is a good video! And being a bit of a geek myself, I really like geeky car vids!
  21. The colour choices for this car are quite basic, there's red, grey, silver, black & white. Silver is the safest option, and i'm thinking of using a Alclad II aluminium over black to give me the look I want...
  22. I'm really keen to make a dent into my stash this year. I've spent soooo much of my time doing DIY in the house, or fixing mistakes in my builds that I don't get to finish a model too often. I am part way through a Rally car build that requires too much scratch building and additional details to make it half decent, so I thought I'd start another. This will be pretty much an out-of-the-box build with very little details. Maybe plugs and seat belts, and that's it. the joy for me in model building is engines and chassis, this has a full engine, so i'll start with that. I do want to get an F40 completed next too, as I think they will go well together. Wife is after a new House project, so i've got to move quickly.
  23. Chassis finished (with pic) seat finished (no pic) and wheels primed (no pic) My CF on the seat backs is... well OK for a first attempt. My lesson learnt is to do it in 3 cuts, rather than 1 piece...
  24. It looks finished!
  25. Now that's a kool little wagen!
