Great progress!

1/24 Hasegawa Lancia Delta Integrale "Evoluzione"
Funkychiken replied to Tiago Malafaya's topic in WIP: Model Cars
One of my favourites too, I have this in the stash somewhere! Looking forward to the build! -
And that is a little bit of heat shield for the exhaust... Made from margarine tub foil

The Chassis is coming along. It's been primed with Zero grey & then several light coats of Zero Glass While. Then a mixture of AB'ed & Hand Painted colours for the details. I'm guessing those black things are petrol tanks. The grey was not re-primed with white primer, so the white did not come out so bright. I was going to cut-out the tunnel & use the underside of the interior tub - in order to not have to mask & paint the propshaft. But... thought it too much effort. These cars are all about the interior! I also wanted to add carbon fibre to the rear of the seat, so used masking tape and penciled in the shape - my first time making my own!

And this is the rear half of the prop shaft (hate it when they split them!) the diff & half shafts. It is AB'ed Alclad Steel for the control arms or what ever they are, and AB'ed Diff with Tamiya titanium, AB'ed Black X1 for the prop-shaft & hand painted Tamiya "Rubber" colour for the gaiters. Having fun on this one! So far.

Hey Alex, thanks! Brakes are done, they are Tamiya Flat aluminium diluted and AB'ed, Tamiya flat black hand brushed & Tamiya Metalic grey hand-brushed.
-
Tiago another fantastic build!
-
Love the dino!
-
That paint finish looks flawless!
-
Great build!
-
Beautiful build!
-
It's a great build. The stance is high, but this could be the ralley version. Great finish on the paint without a clear coat!
-
Great build here, glad someone's started it! Question - did you have to seal-in the weathering with a flat clear? Those decals look intimidating, but you've done a sterling job on them!
-
Hey Dann, did you paint on, or draw on those silver rings around the air vents? Or are they photoetch?
-
It's going to be another stunner Dann!
-
I've even drilled out the slots in this "thing" don't know what it is!
-
I've tried to match the reference dash, but there are a different amount of switches and buttons, and the white labels are too difficult to replicate
-
I've added two buttons to the steering wheel - in line with the reference photos
-
I bought these Speedline wheels from Hiroboy - they match whats in the reference photos, but as they are Fujimi, I'm not sure they'll be compatible
-
Made the roll-cage, and used the interior tub as a jig to do so. then added a bar (highlighted in red - a little out of scale) to hold the ends of the seat belts.
-
I will modify the front bumper, remove the grilles in red circles & fill the light housing in the blue circles
-
Thanks to all those earlier replies! I was focused on finishing the Ferrari 360 over Christmas, but I did get a little done on this Touring Car. Some reference pictures - i'll be making a close match to this car:
-
Outstanding!
-
Absolutely great build
-
I have been tempted by this kit, as it's reasonably priced, but I imagine it's not as sharp as a tamiya kit... However will be following on, as I love the car!
