Zoltan Posted December 16, 2018 Posted December 16, 2018 Hi, this is my new project. My idea: white interier, white wheels and mirrors, cars: sotrm grey.
Zoltan Posted December 16, 2018 Author Posted December 16, 2018 Today I painted the first color white: inside and on wheels, and I prepared my model for painting.
Funkychiken Posted December 16, 2018 Posted December 16, 2018 I like your choice of colour, enjoy the build!
Zoltan Posted December 19, 2018 Author Posted December 19, 2018 Hi everybody, body of the Mclarens i made preparations for a painting.
Gt fan Posted December 20, 2018 Posted December 20, 2018 Looking good.. one of my favorite cars. Great choice of color.
Ich_Will Posted December 20, 2018 Posted December 20, 2018 I wasn't aware this was a kit. I may have to look around for one.
Tommy124 Posted December 20, 2018 Posted December 20, 2018 (edited) Hi Zoltan, this is a good kit from ROG that can make a nice model even when built box-stock. Whereas I have seen some built and painted in quite exotic colors (such as pearlized purple... - and it looked good!), I like your color choice too. I'm just not quite sure about white wheels...? Do you plan on making the orange trim line on the bottom of the car? In that case, even orange wheels could look great along with that. Just saying... Either way, I will be following your build.

Modlbldr Posted December 20, 2018 Posted December 20, 2018 Looking forward to seeing this one. I'll have to look for this kit too. I like it. Later-
carmad1957 Posted December 24, 2018 Posted December 24, 2018 That color combo is going to look awesome! Count me in on the watch-along!
Zoltan Posted February 22, 2019 Author Posted February 22, 2019 I painted the car red. The red is from GM red 70's.
Zoltan Posted February 22, 2019 Author Posted February 22, 2019 I am applied a carbon decals, painted the car top and the mirrors on silver. The wheels will be white.
Zoltan Posted February 22, 2019 Author Posted February 22, 2019 I chose this color combination because I saw it on a nsx in Budapest, and I really liked it. If you have a nsx, then I think it looks good on a McLaren. I'm sorry for anyone waiting for the predefined color.
dino246gt Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 (edited) Here's how I did my interior, and I have a suggestion for you, IF you plan to display it with "doors open". Glue the inner and outer door parts together and fill the seam and THIN the edge before painting. This necessitates removing the pins that the side glass glues to, no problem, it'll drop in after and probably fit better! On mine, the finished product is a bit of a let down because of that door thickness and the gap between the inner and outer, plus the side glass doesn't sit down far enough, imo. Cheers, great kit though! Edited February 22, 2019 by dino246gt
beeRS Posted February 23, 2019 Posted February 23, 2019 I love the red. Good choice. Did those carbon fibre decals come with the kit?
Zoltan Posted February 23, 2019 Author Posted February 23, 2019 (edited) beeRS, Yes, the carbon fiber decals are part of the kit. There's a top decal, just I painted on silver. Edited February 23, 2019 by Zoltan
Zoltan Posted February 23, 2019 Author Posted February 23, 2019 (edited) I finished engine. I've done the engine, chassis and interior. Edited February 23, 2019 by Zoltan
Zoltan Posted April 22, 2019 Author Posted April 22, 2019 (edited) Today I finished Mclaren. Pictures here:. More Edited April 22, 2019 by Zoltan
