935 obsession

Completed another 935. This one's an Aardvark conversion for the Tamiya 935 from 1976, depicting the first version. A straight forward build with no suprises.

Flawless build, and nice collection. Looks like the decals went on super smoothly.

Awesome! Do you have any tips or tricks for the decals? Or is it just a matter of doing the obvious?...

Lots of Microsol, a hair dryer, and touch-up paint.

Good to see your obsession is still going!

Super job as usual.

Awesome :worshippy
Beautiful collection of '935. From which race is to be '77 model # 40?

Nice addition to the obsession, and the weathering is awesome :cool:

Thanks for the compliments.

The #40 car is the 1977 935 'baby', a 2 liter class car that only raced twice. The car depicts the the Hockenheim race winner driven by Jacky Ickx.

Great job. Who makes the decals for the #40 "baby" version?

Nice Job on all of them Ken!!

Thank you for the information. I want to edit and build a version of Le Mans '80 # 45

I like the little 'family' you have there.

935 K3 - the 'baby' decals are the standard markings from the 1977 935 kit. Some of the markings are in different places, though. I made the number '40' decals, as I couldnt find any commercially made.

I have a few build pics in my fotki album. My user name is kensar.

Love the subtle weathering, great build.

Great Job man!

I know how finicky those Tamiya 935 decals can be to get into place, I´m still collecting courage to start mine again.


Good Job!

Cheers!
