It is clear that this year I did not finish it on the train to Leganés, other projects have absorbed me and I do not have enough time to dedicate to this little one.
But I do not abandon him, it’s still on the table and at his pace. Must be for 2018, who knows …

Start the model for this year “Modelin Fait”, to see if this time do not have to glue parts on train to Leganes…
This year the “Modelling Fight” consist in building a LeMans car in 1:43, with leather seats and a figure.
I begin mounting the wheels, are of Tameo ref PWT 03

It´s almost ready detailinged that I´ll add, in this case a whole day of welding 0,4mm brass pipes to build the tubular structure of the beast…
I don’t know if I’ll get time to finish before Leganés show, I only have 5 days to finish paint, place decals and lacquer.

I start to detail the model, in this case the engine cover latches and engine air intakes, that I detail with homemade photoetched parts.

It has been a job for a couple of hours between the design and construction of photoetched parts, but it is worth the result obtained.

I have not yet decided what to do with the ventilation blades, I can replace them with photoetched parts I have made or I detail a little more the model resin part.

Breakthroughs that are not very visible… I have started to improve as much as possible this BBR.

 

 

I´ve sanded the surface so matches both sides, have improved the panel marks, open vents from the front wheels and the hole in the ceiling for rear-view mirror. I have also closed the fuel cap hole that was behind the right front door.

 

It´s going well by now, mostly satisfied with the result of the vents on the wheels.

With the new year I start a new project with which I participate in the Fight Modelling 2014-15 that focuses on vehicles competing under the colors of Martini Racing.

The truth is that it was difficult to decide the model, because there are true jewels under those white, red and blue colours that often identify it, but not always, so I’ve chosen the psychedelic green and purple design of the Porsche 917K who participated during the 6 hours of Watkins Glen in 1970.

I’ll use BBR kit and decals from Leader Kit. I opened the box and I reclosed it, BBR kit is worse than expected and will give more work than I thought. With less than two months to Leganes modelling show will be a challenge to do something decent …

I continue detailing the Porsche Carrera GT.

This time, after placing the photoetched grids of the engine cover, I realize that the pipes of the brake cooling air inlets of the engine cover are missing. I detail them with bits of plasticard, building a small box and the tube that connects with those who come on the side of the engine…

Also I make the engine cover boot strut with 0.3mm and 0.5mm nickel tube. I flatten the sides and add the rods that attach to the chassis and engine cover …
