1:32 Scale Ken Block Fiesta

[mstngcobrasvt98]

I'm not sure if I started a thread on this yet. Here's the interior pics.



Need to paint the E-brake handle still and finish some other details. Trying to make this look like his Gymkhana 5 vehicle. Looking to make a set of Tarmac Fifteen52's as well. Belkits does not make doing rims easy as the wheel and tire are molded as one...we'll see what happens... Comments welcome.

Update!!



Also started the decals. Only 3 placed in about 2 hours of work.




Wish me luck with the rest of the decals. Also, I found a 3D file of the rims. Scaled it down and am trying to get it #d printed.

Wow, excellent work on decals so far !!
they seem to fit well, it's colorado set, isn't it ?
This will be a very nice model, Ken Block's livery is absolutely terrific.
I have his 1/24 Focus and Fiesta WRC to build myself, 1/32 is a more original scale.

Another Update:







Still a few decals left but I'm not sure where they all go. Test fit the windows as well. Still trying to get custom rims made. I gotta say, the decals were definitely a challenge. Never done a full body wrap. A few wrinkles doesn't bother me much. Thanks for looking.

Rims and tires made...kind of

Should be here in about a week. Then to make axle mounts and to replicate the front face.

Nice what company makes this kit? Nice work on the decals!!

[mstngcobrasvt98]

its by Airfix if i remember right. Decals are by Colorado.


I have a slight problem maybe... I cleared the body and decals and the decals looked like they started to wrinkle. The clear is enamel. Are the decals going to lay down nicely?

[mstngcobrasvt98]

so my rims and wheels are shipped!!!!! flat cleared the body and decals. painted the window trim. just going to do misc details until my wheels get here

Very nice and great work so far on the decals.

[mstngcobrasvt98]

Flat Clear, windows and trim. Headlights(although they are missing something....), and tail lights.








Rims and tires should be here Friday.

Need to create the back and the lug area like this and possible decals if I have time.
