Nope. Out of box build. *edited-forgot to mention I stripped the chrome plated exhaust system,tips and rear bumper and airbrushed with Alclad Chrome.

You mean like this: Thats my Williams I built a few years ago.

Thanks everyone. Pales in comparison to E30lovers build but I’m happy with it. Realized I forgot to install the side view mirrors. Will get some pictures up when that’s done. They’re turning out to be the hardest part of this build.

Posted build in WIP.

Exhaust tips and nose installed. Will post some pics in Under Glass

Some more progress shots. BMF’d the window trim and installed the glass and interior. Also drilled out the air cleaner snorkles. I definitely could have done a better job on the body paint job but like I said in my first post I’m building these smaller scale models to get back in the groove to complete a 1/12 scale F1 car I started a few years ago. That one is the Tamiya M23 with the 1976 conversion kit.

Thanks Mike. Nice screen name! Is that for the car or the series?
-
Thank you. Yes Alclad gloss black base and chrome.

Hello. Thank you. Yes. I spayed a light coat of clear then airbrushed the blue over the decals after masking the surrounding area.
-
Getting close to finishing this one. The blue on the decals was to dark for me so I mixed some Tamiya Blue and Chrome Silver and airbrushed over them. While it’s not perfect it’s better then it was and it’s good enough for me.

Thanks for the reply. I’ll check the General Discussion’s section.

I’m looking at the Mars 3 Pro but I’m worried that it’s too small for larger parts. Any other recommendations for a good budget entry level printer?
-
Added body panels.
-
Some more progress.
-
I saw your post. Yours came out nice with alot more detail. I’ve been thinking about getting a printer to make parts but printing full kits makes it even better.

Finally getting around to starting work on the Bandai Batmobile kit my son gave me last Christmas. Man does time fly. Scale is 1/35. Packaging is very nice and parts are crisp without mold or injection marks. Pretty cool how they have clear and colored parts on the same tree. Started with the engine. Airbrushed Alcad metalics.
