Very nice work. Funny thing is the Studio 27 kit master was made by Hiro.
It really helps when you put in the correct measurements for the model! I know Hiro still has big problems doing Tires correctly(and car bodies!!).

Tom Tanner/Scale Designs/Ferrari Expo 2009 model contest-Chicago April 25th 2009

Are you sure about that? If Hiro did it, they did it for Modelers because the S27 kit is an exact knockoff of the Modeler's kit which was out way before Studio 27 made a GTR kit.

Wow! Your skills amaze me. The fact that you can manufacture any part is amazing!

da_ashman

03-04-2009, 05:31 PM

Wow, you should really work for Tamiya or some other kit manufactor, great work.
Im still amazed that after close to 15 yrs there is still no plastic kit of the F1, Its the greatest supercar in the world (only surpassed recently) and there where so many varations that a kit manufactor could have eaily produced & marketed, it just seems so profitable to me, despite the licencing costs. But thats just my 2 cents, cant wait to see what happens next.

What happened to the front part of the hood? It looks a bit rough compared to the rest of it.

What happened to the front part of the hood? It looks a bit rough compared to the rest of it.
Don't worry, it will be sanded. This part has vibrated during processing and the mill has left deep furrows. I filled these defects and milled this section again with the help of bottom support.

06-30-2009, 04:35 PM

I agree with ashman, as i too think this would be a very profitable car for any plastic company, so why isn't there one? Well soon there will be one and only one.

Watching this thread is just awesome. I got my popcorn ready. Its amazing how the parts come out so perfect. Never stop, keep us updated even with the smallest updates.

PS. Mugenhb, just one small piece takes 4-7 hours to mill. So i think that kit in the end would cost you twenty times more than a s27 kit would.

Well, stratos75, your way of playing with "high-tech" devices
gives me the chill', the thrill and the desire to make a 3D model
of my wanted parts too, just by looking at your build. I'd make
a 3D model of a part or two too but I'm waiting for a 36hrs long day. :)
I own a Studio27 kit of McLaren GTR F1 too, but it's
a "Ueno Clinic" version. I guess I'm saving it for the future
because I don't want to mess it's build with a lack of experience.

Your work is very inspiring! You sure are taking modelling hobby to a new level. ;)

got a couple of questions for you.

i) How will you make the clear parts?

ii) I've noticed that you've primarily worked on making a "perfect" body but don't see any sort of fixing/locating method on those body panels.
Will you be working them onto the seperate body panels or will you leave them?

One thing that you could do and would even keep you from having to do any extra work is to allow an online plastic/resin printing place to have the plans to print these up in pieces. You would get a percentage of each kit and they would do all the work for you.

So, today I want to show how I made the front glass.
At first we take a piece of transparent plastic from packing.

Then we heat it up over a gas cooker flame. It is necessary to use cotton gloves.

When plastic becomes soft, we pull it on a mandrel.
