Hey hilarius guys: I'm a little less since I'm playing with brake fluid since a couple days: luckily is stuff out of this topic .

I tried to finish my Chinese girl in time for the AFMOTY but I realized that some shortcut was necessary... since no rush is my motto... and more seeing upside-down how Baden Powell said regarding " don't do tomorrow how that you're able to do today" yes I was a wolf-cub LOL

Oki I'm ready to paint interiors: after some research I see that the silver car have basically black interiors (with alu insert) and normal seats, insthead the red girl have tan interiors and dayto seats. Mine have also manual gear, and the red kind have F1 stuff.

Since I guess that with my photo skills I'll show just a black stain, better i try to show something of my interior's job before painting. As Robij said a good way to add detail is... cut and pull apart pieces... cool guy Robij, I'll follow his tip

Well every new step of this work I have to clash against the reality of this RoG stuff, and I guess it isn't the worst they done . BTW I decided for some radical actions: I'm not Mida-King Auw12 (see his scangi's int.)


Step 1: I designed and done a little PE set with some pieces I've in mind, steering wheel, seats and grills stuff.



Not very clean and a bit oxided due to old chemicals but just a light sanding and I'll have cool pieces to use.

Step 2: Steering wheel:



there I had to play with teh possibility to etch a different design in the two sides of the PE so with some offsets I do housing for switch etc. The result is just a fitting test and need some little adj. in the back of the plastic Rog wheel.

Step 3: Seats:

I cutted out belts, rescribed all, also spaces under former belts, and do some fitting jobs with light curing putty and sanding paper to achieve the 2 shells design the real thing have: rear have to house-in the front one. I guess you'll understand other details from pix:









Last step: I cutted out the rear speaker grill and scribed all lines, added a couple of panel lines that the model haven't: preview:





Done some jobs also in the dashboard: scribed lines and drilled vents holes, I'll use my vents. Note the little (2mm wide) BOSE logo to polish and add to speakers



see you soon with interior finishing and final mount!

ps i know that this car have 6 speeds: i'll fix the trouble ASAP

BADASS!!! this thread is SICK!!! and you're the most abstemious man ever!!!next time you don't have to pay for the extra, useless 100+ plastic pieces from the manufacturer, one body shell and a little more central interior parts something are just ENOUGH for you!

BTW: what's Mida-king? sorry for my bad Italian.

[D_LaMz]

[sportracer02]

Midas king is a character ot the Greek mythology: he was king of Anatolia (haven't a ready translation, actually the oriental part of Turkey) and he received from Dionysis the gift of switch all thing in gold. Too bad that he realized that he wasn't able to eat too..

So isn't ITA neither PolIta LOL

well a body shell and a couple of part would be usefull but done from Tamy

I forgot: just to avoid another "advice" from "someone": those PE parts isn't for sale and is intended for my personal use only, my isn't advertising, I'm not trying to use AF to sell something and most important I'm a modeller not a vendor: so may be I'll switch to premium just to support a forum that I love but not as vendor, since I'm not
