Progress: Peugeot 206 (Street)

[spoolin12]

Well this is my 3rd model ever and i thought i would try a car that i didnt REALY like so if i stuff up it wont be a let down.
Its the Peugeot 206 WRC 2002 winner version. I wasnted to do somthing a bit different so i have decided to try a street version Pug.
All i have done so far is putty up some stuff:

puttied up a hole in the rear:

puttied up some holes in the side skurt:

puttied all holes in roof:

sanded away bonnet bumps and will be filling the front air scoop (trying to get more a street look)


I will be lowering it and i am still deciding on what wheels to use.



You probably think i like the cars i have done so far.........but i dont lol Im a huge nissan fan and am deep into drifting and am trying to learn first on cars that i dont REALY love

Any ideas on paint or wheels?

Yeh i was thinking Tamiya Lime green?

What are your thoughts?

[speedthrill]

do it, it will be awesome

I would say if you are gonna use the rims that come with it (i think they are the white 5 spoke OZ racing ones, but dont no) then do the car a nice gunmetal color, if you do any other rims use a dark sparkley red or dark or light sparkly green, or a nice blue saphire with sparkly's would all look tight.

Looks good so far. Keep us posted man.

Well i went and got some paint today.

I have the choice of painting my Peugeot in Tamiya Candy Lime Green (TS-52)

Or Tamiya Yellow (TS-16)

What do you guys think?

LOL Yup!

I keep the decals but if you want we can work out a wheels/decal deal

Here is a quick small update:

I sanded the bonnet bumps off and then cut a small peice of styrene to fit over the underside of the bonnet holes:


Then filled it with putty (I need to practice puttying)


I will leave the putty to dry over night and then will sand to a smoth finish. I will then prime the body.

More updates tommorrow!

i liked your bonnet before, can't wait till finisch

[spoolin12]

LOL I thought a few people would say that, but i wanted the car to look more like a street car and i didnt like the bonnet scoop.

Its also good practice

[EMAXX]

Yeah, we all have to practice to get good. Can't wait to see more pics.
