Hi,

Tamiya is acrylic and I clearcoat with 2-K-clear from a company called MIPA.

Here the last update

... engine will get some more wires.

the cage came from a Revell Corvette, I added some tubes.

Now it starts to look like a car :

the doors (Inside and outside)

... once more the interior, before the doors are fixed:

the same with added parts like diffussor, carbon parts:

So it will be in the gallery in the next days

I like it a lot. The only thing that looks odd is the rear end diffuser. It seems to be too big and I think, if you shorten it a little, it will fit the looks of this car a lot better. But of course - that is only if you go for looks - as racing is nothing concerned with looks!

Wow!! Fantastic build!

MidMazar · #57 11-05-2007, 09:28 PM

Looks awesome, attention to detail is a plus!!

But, I saw some guys, using flour instead, and that seems to work as well

thanks Micha, I will do some investigating me thinks. The car has turned out excellent too, especially the interior - congratulations.

I must say that this one looks alot more better then the one that Mercedes is going to use.. that one is ugly.. but this one.. pure madness.. I LOVE IT !!

Hi,
