Great job with your Nissan, ROMAN

Beautiful job, as always! I want the tarmac Monte Carlo version!

Hi guys.
Thank you for your feedback.
What do you think of the wheel for the Safari version?
I see that the rear is much deeper than the front




Like?

[rallymaster]

Yes, I think you're right with your drawing.
Rear wheel is deeper than front one for sure, but I can't find the exact measure in my books...

[Romik505]

Hello Phil .
Thank you . I found information on these wheels, but not sure it's right.
front 15х7 ET 0
back 15х8.5 ET -31.5
But it turns out that the rear are very wide and have a greater depth.

If you can reach such a great look than in drawing and pics (and I'm sure you will ) it will be one of the greatest details of the model !

[Romik505]

Of course, Phil, I have the file ready for 3D

[Romik505]

Hello !
Little progress:
Glass for Nissan. This bothers me a bit, but it was good.

The second good news is ready photoetching

I also received a printed wheels for Safari.
But there are problems. The rear wheels get very deep.
I will make a new




Ready tires for asphalt versions


And one important question for you: I have the opportunity to order this two parts of white metal:

but the set cost will be more 8 - 10 euros. Does it make sense to have this part of the white metal?

Congratulations Roman, killing details on this model! I'd vote for the external protection parts being in resin.

Woaw, rear wheels are really deeeeeeeeep
nice PE set and perfect tires !
For the safari part... Sincerely, such part is always better and much appreciated in white metal on the 1/43 models I build, and it also could be better in white metal than in resin on 1/24 models, but 8/10 euros more just for that part I think this really is too much and not inevitably much better compared to the resin solution, which should not be a problem at that scale, to worse so many euros.
Moreover white metal parts if not perfectly casted often require more work and more complicated work than a well casted resin part.
So resin will be fine if you really should add 8/10 euros to the price.

Your resin castings are the best that I have ever seen, so why bother with white metal that, as Phil pointed out, can add more complications than anything else Can't wait to see Nissan and Toyota group B cars on my shelf !

[puffyrs]

All parts look great.

[fanalone]

Great PE and good tires, it,s will be a very good Kit

Great work! One vote for resin cast.
