Perfect!!

Next update: now it is more complete. It takes many actions given in the body especially. We start with the lights. Here I show the crystals and finished headlights, just a black border is missing in the rear ones. I also cut the bottom of the rear ones made of paper tobacco packets.

It w

ill be attached to the bottom:



Other body parts:



And finally, the body lacquered with Number5. It has a fine hand, and three subsequent normal layers with 10-15 minutes between them. The result: I have to varnish more fequently. I had littles dusts and orange peel, and caramel-like in general (too fat for my taste):








And as always, some pictures from other angles:







In the following picture, the spoiler is over the body, also lacquered:





Then, as I was not convinced with it, I started to polish it, also with the set of Number5. First the 2000 water sandpaper, who took out all the shine

.

After that, a 3000 soft sandpaper with 3000, clean and polish it. Squeeze some dough with the stick and gave him the job in the minidrill useful. And the shine started to show. A little bit of it, and more minidrill. At the end, I gave it about four times to the entire body, eliminating dusts, orange peel, and the caramel aparience. For my taste, perfect!









We can see in the following pictures, a reflection studies, including the famous bulb:





Design pictures:



Once ready, masked to paint the frames, and this time use the Semi Gloss Black Zero, ready to shoot with aero: perfect:



Here it is already painted with the front spoiler and drifts, that they were applied a coat of very diluted Smoke mixed with some of the sifter matt (which is used for paneling):



And the body with black painted without masks:










Just to say, I've already started putting the body accessories and the next update will be in completed models.

Thanks for looking and commenting!

Note: sorry for my previous pictures but I'm suffering a problem with my pictures storage and it will be solve soon.

Lovely job on the bodyshell, deep gloss looks fantastic. The finished job will be a very nice model.

Last post on work in progress of this project. Here I show the three main parts of it: body, chassis and dashboard. It was difficult to ride because if I put the dash in the chassis, the steering wheel was on the roll bar. IF I put it in the body, the dashboard was in the front wheel arches ... So what I did was mount the chassis in the body (I had to put the back of the chassis inside the body between the rear wheel arches) leaving a hole through which I got the dashboard, and when he had placed on its place ... Cyanoacrylate and Volia! Then I put the set screw. It is the last photo of these separated parts ...



Once done, i had to add the wheels and body accessories: front grilles, headlights of ScaleProduction (very good!), Sensors in the basin of the headlights, fuel inlet ...







And in the background rear lights, I added tobacco paper:



Yesterday, March 3, 2013, I finished this project, after 12 months!
Thanks for looking, commented and criticizing!

Next pictures in "Completed Projects"!
