Re: Subaru Impreza WRC - Argentina 1999 Kankkunen

Here is my new update.

I worked on paddle shifter and steering wheel.

before painting:







with black primer and first detils painting:




I also add the non-skid carpet (I know there must be another word to call that...??) under driver pedals, put in place hand brake lever (on which I suppressed hydraulic valves, a new pic showed me there isn't on this type of lever - really fed up of this subaru !!! ), painted the new electronic brains & wires...

that will be for next update, in a few days cos' I'm moving to Paris this week end for another hobby club meeting.

thanks for reading

Phil

Re: Subaru Impreza WRC - Argentina 1999 Kankkunen

Hello,

5 weeks of silence here, so it's high time to update the thread !

I finally finished the dashboard and the gear paddle shifter.









After that I came back to the electronics brains/boxes, adding in stretched sprue what fixed them to the floor:




I now have to make these wires come together in the big wire that crosses the car along the tunnel and I will be able to glue inside parts.

Wow it's finally running to the end...

All decal work will be a pleasure after that.

Thanks for reading

It took you looong time...
Well spended I may add. Great job on the paddle shifter, and I really like the detail plus on the electronic boxes.
The bolts on the steering are detail painted or did you replace them? they look great!

Take your time to finish this one.

Hello Rodrigo,

thanks for this kind words and your encouragements, that's all I need !

in fact I'm running several projects in the same time (mini roadster, sub RA99 and finishing on the Panizzi Sub, and the 612 scaglietti which I still haven't started the WIP...) that's why I have some trouble to update my threads quickly.
That's not nice I know, but I'm also working on some 1/43 models, without that I think I could run those 1/24 projects as I did a few weeks ago.

The bolts of the steering wheel are only painted.
(I think there's no need I talk about the size of the brush I used for that )

thanks again

Phil
