Ford Escort RS1600 - Belkits
MarcoTJ replied to MarcoTJ's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Thank you! Thanks! For the wheels I used Steel color paint . It's from a local Brazilian brand Dryco. ??Thanks! Thanks! The white stripes are decals. Made painting quite simple. -
Maybe the last one of 2021.... Or not ?. Great kit from Belkits. First one I built from this brand. Super complete and the build is fabulous.

Those are veeeery nice wheels.??

It's Pepper Gray. The same I used on the Eleanor. It's Sherwin Williams car paint. The 2K is also SW. The 5:1 catalysed one. I sprayed it on with 40psi and no thinning and got this silky look.

Thank you! ????? I also prefer the Bird. I'll build the Camaro next... See how it goes Thanks! They are Porsche 917 wheels. 3D printed. It's the first time I used 2k clear with no thinning at all. Really liked the finish.

Ford GT40 - MENG - 1/24 - Number 5
MarcoTJ replied to MarcoTJ's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
?? Thank you! It's really hard to find a perfect kit; so I'm always happy when I find one that builds really nicely. The Fujimi one looks really nice. Thanks ? And they other car kits too. ?? I really don't know. But build-wise, the transparent parts fit beautifully. And only go on after everything else is built.
