curt raitz Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Venturing into the 1/20th scale multi-media Formula One kits... Sebastan Vettel's Toro Rosso STR3 as raced in 2008 F1 Championship. All of the assorted parts: resin, white metal, turned aluminum wheels and photo-etched gathered for a group photo... Big decal sheet for the body parts, small is for the tires and ya get a seat belt kit as well... Throw in a bottle of Scalefinishes "Red Bull Blue"...put everything back in the box give it a good shaking and you get this: thanx for lookin'...
DynoMight Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Those are some fancy decals. Good job Curt, came out amazing, as usual. Who produces this kit?
curt raitz Posted July 22, 2014 Author Posted July 22, 2014 Those are some fancy decals. Good job Curt, came out amazing, as usual. Who produces this kit? A company called E.Jan, a guy in Germany sent me the kit to build for him. When he opened it up and saw all the resin, white metal parts and decal sheet - he got a little scared
JPS_Lotus Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Great looking build! How much prep did you have to put into getting those parts ready? Compared to the 2014 cars, I really miss the 2008 and earlier F1 cars.
Jordan 191 Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 That kit would have me running scared. You did wonderful work!
Dave Van Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Very nice build. I have way too many 1/20, plastic and resin, to build. Funny who 'old' that car looks with wide rear wing and completely different front wheels forward.
curt raitz Posted July 22, 2014 Author Posted July 22, 2014 Not much, just a little sanding/filing here and there...no pin holes in the resin and everything fit quite well
