Robby Gordon's 1993 Copenhagen Lola

I started this one awhile ago but was not happy with how the paint went down, so now that we have nice warm to hot days i have managed to get a smooth gloss finish. This will be built as a curbside so i am hoping it should be done quickly. I'm using Michael's decals which are complete to do this car as Robby raced at the Indy 500 in 93.

Re: Robby Gordon's 1993 Copenhagen Lola

I have the decals on all bar the nose one which i am awaiting a replacement from Michael as i stuffed it up. It is probably the easiest one to place but when i was not happy with it i tried to move it and it did not want to move. Decals are excellent and will happily use again. Now i will move to wrapping it all up once i have cleaned the residue and then hit it with 2K

Re: Robby Gordon's 1993 Copenhagen Lola

While waiting for the decal required so i can get the 2K onto this body i have done the tyres and wheels. I used Semi Gloss Black for the rims and then used the Good Year supplied decals which were a pain as they were quite old and did not want to play the game. Once on i have now cleared over them with Flat Lacquer to help blend them into the tyre sides, i will dull this down with some black weathering powder soon. I covered the wheels with a $2 coin as the tyres are quite soft and did not want to hurt the decal trying to get them over the wheels.

That black really shines. This looks like it will be a nice build.

Re: Robby Gordon's 1993 Copenhagen Lola

Small update, i have ground down the molded in seat-belts and then flocked the seat base and added belts. I used Leukoplast band-aid tape painted flat black as i was not sure of the colour and went with Simpson decals, hardware is Model Car Garage - i think.
With the temps about to go up again i should be able to get the 2K on Sunday or Monday night.
