ukfiveo Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Having been overwhelmed by the great response to my 69 GT40 I thought I would attempt a WIP for my next one... The kit is the Revell Le Mans Ford GT and I am using the Decalcas resin upgrade set plus decals for the Keating motorsports Wynns GT AM entry from 2019.

bytownshaker Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Looking for forward to your WIP, I 'm about to start the 2019 Daytona Motorcraft sponsored version. Edgar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukfiveo Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 Made a start on this one, drilled out the RH fuel inlet and air jack port. The Decalcas resin parts include a lovely rear diffuser, replacement wheels and brakes. The body is primed and base coated, Zero paints Wynns purple.

ukfiveo Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 Spent yesterday painting a few detail parts and began work on the cockpit. I have added carbon to enhance the interior and also the aero parts. Additionally, put the motor together and decalled it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukfiveo Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 Plenty of time to work on this, chassis is complete, resin wheels and tyres are painted and detailed. Used BMF on the rear firewall and Uschi metallic powder on the discs. The CF decal is Tamiya extra fine weave. Tyres were sprayed in a very dark grey Tamiya mix with a puff of semi gloss clearcoat over the sidewalls, the wheels are a combination of XF1 and flat gunmetal. Body clearcoat next.......

Gramps46 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Your use of color on the details is impressive. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyser Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Outstanding work on the rotors. Looks like nicely bedded in CCB. How did you do that great job? I don't have one yet, but I think I need one. Enjoy the build. I am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukfiveo Posted April 25, 2020 Author Share Posted April 25, 2020 Body is now clear coated. It went well but a few areas where it could use a polish so waiting for it to harden off. Added resin fuel inlet and air jack, this is getting close to completion... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
