Larry ELooks Great - I always wanted to try one of those large scale racer kits, just not enough room to display it...

Stefan SuessemilchThanks mates.... here's a update.... well this is the point where it's getting difficult for me. Give me little parts and I love to fiddle them together, but the big paint job worked out...hmmm BAD 😠 I stopped counting how often I tried to get a good white on the cowl. A "paint-nose" is the result, so I have to do it over again. I think I could need some help at this point... any suggestions how to meke a good white coat would be very appriciated 😳

Alexander Aristides CronvallDetails,details,details 🙂 love it ! when it comes to the paint job i think you are spraying a bit heavy coats maybe ? i build my paint jobs in multiple very thin layers with some trying time in between.

Stefan SuessemilchThanks Alex...that's what I thought too. At some places the white paint didn't stick. There where always yellow spots. I'm wondering if I should do other prime first... gray didn't worked as I wanted, maybe white prime?

Alexander Aristides CronvallWhite is a tricky colour to paint. you should paint white over a white primer otherwise the colour of the primer will darken the top coat. but it's very hard to see what your doing when painting white on white. i don't know if your using spray cans or airbrush ? It's very hard to get smooth and even layers with a spray can, and often you get small runs in the paint. especially with white paint since it's hard to see what your doing. but try to wait a little longer between the coats and give it another go. good luck 🙂

Stefan SuessemilchWow Guido..that's what I call a perfect "how-too" Thank you very, very much!! You explained some things I surely did wrong. At first I saw a video with waiting 30 sec to 1 min. I never sanded the primer and still not sanded the laquer. You're absolutely right in practicing, that's what I'll gonna do now. I was was always really afraid of the paint job, but now I'm getting confident and will give it another try, again and again. Next paint job will be a cheap revell porsche in orange. A good one for practicing. Thanks again mate!! I really apriciate your're help and would love to meet you, maybe Mol?

Guy GolsteynGreat job so far Stefan! I can only agree with Guido's 'how-to'; that's how I do it, exactly the same😉

Stefan Suessemilch@ Guido: yes....sometimes😉 @ Guy: wow thanks a lot! I'm just do it over and over again until I'm satisfied. You both are really inspirational to me. @ Gerald: Die Zündkabel sind richtige Kabel, das andere sind Schlauchleitungen.🙂 Thanks again to all, you keep me going on😉
