Hi Everyone.

The air scoops have been removed from the rear body and the scoops extended to make painting ans assembly easier

Great start!

Jordan

Great Start!! Ive heard theres problems with the rear cowl not fitting right.
Love this car, always wanted to build one!

My rear bodywork wasnt as bad as some I have seen but I did have to do some major filing to align all of the edges though. Its by no means perfect but considering the cost of the kit I think its OK.

Oh Its so nice and i really appreciate your design.

When will it complete??


Keep it up

My current speed of model making fairly slow. I'm current working to get the bodywork finished by the end of the summer so that the detailing can be done over the winter. I have to spray paint outdoors so I work on a few models at the same time, to get all of the bodywork complete in the nice (uk) weather.

Nice start looking forward to seeing more.

The Bodywork is now ready for top coating but first I will have to make a purchase.

I've decided to have another go at using an airbrush, after an unsuccessful attempt 10 years ago put me off. The I can try some Zero paints

lookin nice mine was warped when i got mine how was it for you

the rear bodywork was a little concave, but I managed to persuade it back in line by hand. Its not perfect but I didnt have to resort to the levels some have to straighten them

The body looks well proportioned....looking forward to colour. Have you decided what you will use the base colour yet?

Looks great, that's going to be a really nice build! bravo!

Hi shunter
Thanks for the comments
My plan is to use the Audi r10 silver from zero paints.
First I need to get a compressor and some practice with an airbrush
