Re: Cayman Interseries | modern racers with historic liveries

Impressive masking on a complicated livery

Is it cleared already in the shots?

Thanks for the comments !

No Steve, first I must "repair" some imperfections, then I cover the body with clear. This will be followed by some sanding, to bring the edges of the colours to an even level. After that I can add the decals

Re: Cayman Interseries | modern racers with historic liveries

Fantastic masking job! It would be a pain to decal this... On the other hand - to paint this without suffering problems shows certain skills. Way to go!

... dito dito.... but lokks like Micha need much touch ups to achieve a superb result, I'm curious.

For sure it is a quite tricky mask job, but with complex shapes I would use frisket film insthead paper tape.


I'm sure it would be better than mine: I got a tricky committment also: the nose of my psycho Cayman would be a real nightmare and I dubt it would come out perfect... I'm curious to size my skills and my patient also!

Hey Gio, I guess you know this would be a base for your livery...

Re: Cayman Interseries | modern racers with historic liveries

I'm just wondering something...
Is this contest only opened to track racing liveries or a rally livery can also be chosen...?
I don't see any for the moment...

Re: Cayman Interseries | modern racers with historic liveries

If I had the time.... The Sandeman is very tempting indeed. Lucky one who chooses to build it...

One question that might have been answered already, but do you only build liveries that appeared in the Interseries at this moment or do you also include "fantasy" Caymans incorporating older liveries that are not being raced at the moment?

Great work from everyone. I love those liveries!
That Frankfurt show is slowly but surely creeping on the "to go" list :-)
