WIP: F430 Edil Cris #53 for Damstredet Racing



Hi gys,
The postman rang twice this morning and I picked up the F430 from Nick at my local post office. It for sure looked great and I can’t wait to start working on it :bounc::bounc::bounc:

I’ll try to post some picks here of process, so that you all can follow a rookie building this kind of car for the first time :car:

PS Tamar. It would be much appreciated if you could give the status on the decal printing:laugh:

Decals for the Edil Cris, Scuderia Ecosse and Af Corse F430's will be printed on Sunday.
Nick will probably send them out on Monday




With kind regards

Hi,
this might work too publish the pic's, we'll s see.

Part II
No, did not work, the pic was humongous when I just tried to put it with the message as an attachment.

Part III
gave up, you'll find pics at this thread on the norwegian forum:



The car still need som finishing with sandpaper and some more dremeling before we can put on the black paint, but we'll get ther soon :D:D


The guy on the middle pic is Børge helping us with the last finnishing tuch on putting a small edge for gluing the windows. He has a more steady hand than me :bounc:

Not too much primer



Hello Rolf

I saw on the norwegian forum that you had a little mishap with the body. but I also see a lot of primer! Easy on the primer Rolf...you'll loose a lot of detail and sharpness that way.





With kind regards

yea, have a small crack, after holding it a bit hard during sanding :( Got some good advice from Nick regaarding fixing it. Involving thin super glue :-)

Had no time to do anything about it to day. Had race day on the Damstredet club running 1:32 F1. 14 cars on the grid. Had pole in both races but fu**ed it up in the finals with one 4th and one 2nd :)

The car is getting closer to "the night shift". A little bit too shiny (looks a bit more shiny than it real is in the pics), but it have to do for the Oslo race :car:

Are continuously learning so the second car for EEC round two will hopefully be a bit better Especially since we will learn a bit of decaling secrets from the RhF gang at the late shift in Oslo:coke:

Hey rolf



It doesn't matter that the car is too shiny now, you can give it the 'shinyness' you want with the correct clearcoat, flat, semi-gloss or gloss.
