Experiment with painting something big (after the 24th scale). But just repainting over time has turned ... into something more.

As it turned out, even a perfect painting doesn’t matter on a child's toy because of the primitiveness of this toy, we had to gradually fix everything as much as possible, risking to spoil the painted body (especially cutting out holes and thinning the hood and trunk). Unfortunately, further modification of the wheel arches and doors on this model is impossible, since it is painted, and therefore it does not make sense to change the humpback glazing. But still, the experiment in version 1.2 can be considered successful, albeit with a stretch.

Version 1.0
Repainted body. Added nets, door locks, seat belts with locks and fasteners in the cabin, modified headlights, their glazing and exhaust nozzles, adjusted suspension. Floor and ceiling covering added, turn signals simulated. Improved interior, added pictures of devices.

Version 1.1
Cut out the necessary holes in the body and installed the grid and a new grille. Added radiators and air ducts. Modified aerodynamic elements of the bottom of the body and painted. The glazing is cut and installed flush with the roof. Thinned hood and trunk. Fully replaced wipers. Nipples were added, brakes were altered, discs were varnished. Installed magnets in the door.

Version 1.2
Replaced brake discs and rebuilt their mount. Upgraded front suspension for the correct rotation of the wheels and their deviations. Removed internal toy ribs of rims. Replaced all grids with more realistic ones and added missing ones. Added exhaust pipes inside the exhaust nozzles. Removed the latest fasteners from the glazing of the front headlights and added leveling seals glass for flush with the body(Удалены последние элементы крепления с остекления передних фар и добавлены уплотнители выравнивающие стёкла вровень с кузовом.). Added glass in the door and completely replaced the rear side windows, their mounting and ... design. Extra items from the bottom are deleted so that they do not stick out (fixing the bottom and the consequence of the radio control design).

Color Aston Martin Emerald Green.

I was about halfway through the photos, thinking to myself "okay, enough with the reference pics, let's see the model."

And then it dawned on me waht I was looking at.

Incredibly impressive. I mean...wow.

WOW !   AT first I thought I was looking at real photos of the car, then finally scrolling down to the bottom, I noticed this was your model.   ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS !!

TCB,

Gorgeous! I love the work on the grille and the wipers.  Top notch paint job.  Love it! 

Thanks for sharing.

I think this is amazing. I would never have thought a Rastar model could look so good. 

I am still convinced those first few pics are of a 1:1 car :D.

Hi guys!
Thanks for the comments, very nice and a little unexpected and glad that you liked it!
Next time I will try to fix on a similar model what I could not on this one, what I wrote in the description and more.)))
