martinfan5 Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 Wow, that didnt take long, nice job, I need to get one, were did you get at again? HLJ?
lanesteele240 Posted March 1, 2013 Author Posted March 1, 2013 Yeah. It was killing me to start it. Not much to build tho. I got it off ebay. 20 something shipped. Details are great, tolerances are tight Great one day build but im gonna strech it to two or three because of work
Harry P. Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 Cool. I have to wonder why they molded the driver figure in clear?
Draggon Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 Nice work! I saw this in my Hobby Search newsletter and was interested.
cobraman Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Cool little kit but yes, where is the steering wheel ? Need to put the driver in first ?
lanesteele240 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 I was waiting to put the wheel on after i set him in. I painted the clear body and it would not take. I guess i need to some how etch the glass before i prime it. Anybody know a way to do that. I wish they would have made the body out of styrene. The model would be close to finishes.
krazyglu Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 I have been wanting this kit for a while now, I knew nothing of Ayrton Senna(not really a open wheel fan) until ESPN did a program on him and it was very interesting. I am not sure why you can't just sand the clear part's just like you would any other plastic piece? I alway's start by washing my pieces with warm water and some dish soap, that get's the residue off, then a light sand and primer as you have mentioned. Good luck, look's awesome so far.
jeffs396 Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Very cool little kit! Being 1/20 scale, I wonder how it would look with a 1/24 scale car/truck? Got one handy you could post a poser pic of?
worldgpfan Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 nice, i've been thinking about getting one. can't wait to see it with the figure in it.
