Munkyslut I think you've pulled off a master stroke there my friend !

Spanjaard good luck!!!! they look great, hope the fix works! fingers crossed!!!

Chaz Gordon Very nice work. Nice to hear a revell kit with good fit, I've built a lot of the Old revell kits, and fit not so great. I have a few trucks to work out how to hinge the hood correctly.

What brands of paint are you using? most of mine are ranges designed for Military kits and metallic choice is not so great, looking for some nice metallics for my Trucks.

Dominik Weitzer Thank you mates for your Attention and cheering-up.
I've just painted the left side of the BB (BB = BarrierBlue vs FB = FontaineBlue) with clearcoat and i'm really pleased with the result. In the evening i go to the left side and think it is done.

liked to upload a Picture in Progress (taped)...didn't work so far. Always get Errors...

@chaz: the kit is amazing. it made so fun to built that i've just ordered two more for me to build. love it!
for the paint, i use spray cans. those paintes are used for real cars, i',m not familiar with the airbrush to paint complete models. I'm a spray-can-guy :-D .
I take products from "Kwasny" K-Racing for primer, black gloss / flat and clear coat. If i Need filler, i take one from Prisma Color.
They work well together, i order it online (eBay or Amazon).

the base paints or metallic for Bodys i have to choose where i can get the original paintcodes. normally they are from Multona or Dupli-Color.
I will attache a Picture...if it works...

Munkyslut Dominik, I use automotive paints for the bigger scales like 1/6 1/8 etc but it's usually too thick & heavy for 1/24.
For those I use Tamiya sprays, I find them really good.
I've just started using an airbrush again after a 35 year break & i dont know why I left it so long, it's the way to go

Chaz Gordon Airbrush is definitely the way to go, I tried rattle can primer and instantly regret it, Thought I was saving money, right up until I covered a whole model with just 2ml of Vallejo airbrush primer! The only trouble is I went too good too fast, and got an nice iwata TR0, now I'm spoiled and have to buy another one (TR/TRN 2) for wider area coverage for clear coats and such. At least I have the initial cheap brushes for primer work

Dominik Weitzer I agree to use an airbrush or tamiya paint. But for me it is not so easy to change my hole processes / routine...

What's done now? Both GTO are painted new on the sides. I'm fine with the first result. Even if you know, there were stripes before, you'll see them in special angles. That tells me, I will do that procedures once again.
I will wet sanding the sides and give a new layer of paint.

Christian W That looks good!

Christian W You know, I'm watching you

Dominik Weitzer Sure Brother

After completed the Audi i worked on the Corvette. Step by step painted details, mounted parts or decals...It looks like a homerun. It fits well, easy to built and so on. Like that kit!

On the interior I choosed to different black and painted some aluminum parts, to give those boring "all black interior" a small different touch.
On the engine I choosed the white from the body for the pretty nice covers.

worth mentioning is that the chassis was heavily warped and I cling to the interior with clinging. Otherwise, all parts fitting very well.
Coming along nicely

Christian W This last picture looks beautiful! Good to see this tinted strip on the top. Have to remember to do this on mine too.
The interior looks good! Are there decals for the sound system too or did you paint it? Looks great!

Christian W I think the lights at the front aren't done so far. Watch for the turn signals

Dominik Weitzer Thanks Bro. I've done all decals incl the sound system.
Don't be worry, the details (f.e. markings, lights) on the body should be done after the marriage

Christian W B)

Dominik Weitzer Made some work before holiday.
Marriage chassis and body, painted details on the body and mounted nice wheels. Didn't liked the small wheels from the kit .

Christian W Pretty nice! You know it.

Neuling Clean build! Deserves more pictures.

Christian W This Audi makes me to want the kit too. Beautiful and very clean built. Awesome paint Job.

Thomas Kirschbaum Wow, very nice car! Good work!

Dominik Weitzer Thank you! I appreciate it.
For a planed "quick built" before starting, it came out really awesome. Like it also very much.

Holger Kranich Oh yeah, dont be shy!

Christian W

Ian Oostelbos Beautiful!!!! Have one with a roof. That colour is amazing.

Dominik Weitzer Thank you!

Christian W Es wird

arielvitanovus OMG! Dominik, it is looking fantastic.... I am sooooo pleased and excited to see this as it progresses!

Dominik Weitzer Thank you! Much appreciated.

Dominik Weitzer After painting the Body it took about seven hours to get the Interieur and Chassis done.
Body is painted out of rattlecan, clearcoat after a wetsanding two layers of paint without polishing i'm fine with the result.

Christian W I like the Color and your paint Jobs. The interior Looks great.

Dominik Weitzer Thank you brother

I choosed other wheels (Aoshima 19inch) and had to drill out the discs.

Dominik Weitzer Only made a little step forward. Made the window frame with BMF for the chrome look. Some other parts painted (no picture yet)...nothing special on this built.

Dominik Weitzer Assambling chassis and Body. I'm very pleased, it fits into like a homerun.

Dominik Weitzer Here we go straight ahead to the finish line. Assambled the lights in front and back, mounted the windscreen.

Tim Heimer This should be a nice one!

Dominik Weitzer Thank you Tom. I'm not really pleased with the first one i've built. It Looks good, was fun to build but has some flares....

Bob Hall Nice ! Count me in on this one.

Christian W Me too!

Dominik Weitzer Welcome on board !

Today some different paints. After studying the instructions, I took other colours than wrote there. All parts on the frame, chassis should be boring aluminum....no. I took gloss black for the frame to have contrast to the silver body

Christian W Pretty cool. If the Corvette had seperated frames, I'd do the same.

Dominik Weitzer Ready with the work on the Interieur. I'm really pleased with the result so far.

Christian W It looks interessting. On my point of view, I'd painted the dashboard in the semi gloss color instead of matt.

Dominik Weitzer the kit goes really good from the Hand.
Engine is done, Frame mounted completly, Body on. Some work on good looking Brakes and also mounted the wheels.

and finally, done some work on the stance, front and rear lights - up on the finish line.
It Looks really good till now. very good!

Christian W Looks good so far!

Christian W This model kit looks so fantastic! With all it's small details it's really well done. Maybe you'll get some pictrues of it with the original car.

Dominik Weitzer Thank you Bro. not thought about it, to make some Pictures with the real Golf.

Munkyslut Ahh that's excellent! What brilliant work, looks so realistic, I'm very impressed

Patrick Hagelstein Looks really awesome! Are you going to replicate that Nürburgring sticker on the hood as well?

Nigel Chapman Wow looks great, I love the display case with that photo, looks amazing

Dominik Weitzer Thank you very much!
Patrick, in the first meaning i would like to fix that Sticker in scale on the Hood. But he will restore his car (sitting in a Garage since years) and told me, it is not that important to make it.

Patrick Hagelstein Gotcha!

Neuling Schöner Golf im passenden Ambiente!

Christian W This "Thing" look some kid of pretty cool! The idea to use the decals of the Ford Focus Rally and fit them to the body is awesome! I know, after the decalling you were not satisfied with it. This is because you build the Shelby again.
It's cool anyway and it's unique!

Munkyslut I'm with Christian it looks really good, properly unique, engine bay is excellent!

Dominik Weitzer Thank you very much. i appreciate it.

Nigel Chapman Hell yeah, dare to be different. I like the colour combo, it works even though it shouldn't !

Dominik Weitzer Well siad Nigel. Thank you!

Dominik Weitzer This is the first "try" to build the Shelby Series 1. Ist so "lala",...not happy with all Kind of work. It Looks good, i had fun - for sure.

Christian W Nice one

Dominik Weitzer After sanding the moldlines on the Fenders, front bumper sprayed with silver and first layer of clearcoat out of rattle can. Now i let dry the Body, put on the decals and paint the final clear coat.
