Post by Shunter »

Here is one i started sometime ago and have pulled out of the cupboard seeing the wet days have unfortunately arrived here now...These are great kits and a joy to build and really add some colour to the display cabinet.

Looks like a good start. Good luck with masking underneath the floor. I need to finish my version of it, but that masking area was really rough for me for some reason.

Indycars from that era were seriously nice looking cars. Looked fast stood still, always a good sign. Will be watching your progress...

Thanks guys, daveyman it shouldn't be too bad as looking at the below image it is only the front splitters that are to be red and then the rest will be black and i will do the centrew section in CF decal as per previous builds.

Hi Shayne,

Nice paint job!

Are you planning to use the kits decal or replacement? I don't have this one but the AAR with the Eagle on the noise. Those decals from Revell are not the best. They are on the hard side, just like a piece of paper. I have this kit but with decal for Jimmy Vasser's car. I got it dirt chip (less than $10 Cdn).

I am interested to see your progress.

Hi CK i have two sets of the kit decals but Michael at Indycals has made a set for this car which is sooooo good. I truly recommend getting that sheet to do the car justice.

Decals are going on, this is Michael's sheet that covers this car as i had nothing but issues with the kit decals, i have to say they are excellent as usual. Look forward to these going on and then hitting this with 2K to bring on a great shine and depth to the markings.
