Hello.

I repaired with styrene all the damage I did as I cutted out the hood, repaired the headlights. Removed a few molding lines, drybrushed some more detailing on the underside.

I also nearly finished the wheels, the tyres are "used" now and the 5 spoke centers are painted with Tamiya smoke and a semigloss clear laquer.

And this

Very good job,nice details,you are da best

But where did you get engine? I want toooooooooo

What an amazing wip. I'm totally amazed at what a daunting and intimidating journey you have gone thru with the tons of work and detailing you have put into this. From the fantastic engine and bay to all the details on the chassis. WOW. The interior is a point of great interest, as I think its beautiful. The cables in the doors are a great touch and its little things like that that really separate the men from the boys, lol. You build like me also, faster the the paint and glue dries but thats just more fun right?
"I screamed 5 times NO!!! and only one time Ahhh!!" -classic modeller's line. I had to laff at that too. This model is a work of art.

Masterpiece! Detail on the engine is great and I have to agree with earlier comments that the interior is beautiful! Builds like this is raising the bar once again and I find it hard to keep up...

Hi,

how could I miss this thread??

Fantastic job sofar, nice ideas/improvements, clean execution

Risko · 07-31-2006, 04:16 AM

Thanks very much guys!

Small update, lots of work... 80% of the wires and hoses done, I counted 36 when completed. I don´t know why I´m putting that much into, I worked too fast again and messed around a bit

Many of these wires won´t be visible later, but hey, they are there.

The exhaust is now connected to the turbo and wears heat protection foil, too.

Still lot of work do: I need to do the strutbrace, airfilter, ic, hinges, oil and coolant hoses, cooler....

Please enjoy

Next update...

I think I need a break from the wires and hoses, before I do more mess

Now I did the hole for the tow hook and I had a very good idea for the hood hinges

Check this out

nugundam93 · 07-31-2006, 02:23 PM

hmmmm, the bonnet hinges are a great idea!

Risko · 08-02-2006, 05:43 AM

Update!

Wiring nearly finished, only 8 wires to do... Then the cooler, intercooler and the bonnet can be clolsed!

Looking awesome! Love the jubilee clips on the breather hose! It could easily be 1/12 with the detail you have there. What will you use for an Air Filter?

Risko · 08-02-2006, 07:19 AM

^^ Thanks

I don´t know yet, which airfilter will be used.

I have 2 different resign ones from ThePartsBox. But the one is too small and the another one is oval. Maybe the oval one or scratch build

wow!!! looking good.

bhop73 · 08-18-2006, 11:13 AM

That's looking scrumptious..

quadzero · 08-18-2006, 02:24 PM

The level of detailing is making me dizzy, but I love it. I think the engine bay is fantastic how you are bringing it to life. Looking forward to seeing how you handle the air filter. By the looks of things, I'm pretty sure it will be a work of art.

Brian Harte · 08-18-2006, 03:47 PM

Hey Risko, I just found the issue of TURBO Magazine with a huge 2 page picture of the whole engine bay. I'm gonna bring it home and scan it. Just wondering if you want it?
