Re: 1:24 Ford Focus WRC- Neste Rally Finland 2007- WINNER
Some progress, I had to make molds because some joints came visible through paint work :-( . Actually the sun roof was the difficult area.
 Sun roof, joints are not easy to see.  Mold making of the bonnet. Old Legos are very useful :-)  Castings...  The very first resin parts for test fitment. I also started with lamp lenses. I do have clear resin, but I think vacuforming gave better result in this case.  I used original lenses of the diecast model as basis. I had corrected the shape of lamps better.  I did gypsum mold first and casted white metal "mandrels"  Polished mandrels. I will show you the results of vacuforming later. Just for teaser, the resin body already has paint on it  : |

Petteri, that's absolutely the greatest Focus build i've ever seen! Have you used vacuum for casting resin parts? Your casting looks very good and I cannot find any bubbles in the resin! Great job!
