Hi Pascal,

do you give lessons in painting? I would like to take one such course. The paint results are unreal. This is going to be a real stunner when she is done.
Chapeau!
Cheers,
Roman

Hi,


Thanks a lot Roman!
No, I don't teach painting :lol:

First of all, the right picture a the previous post

Image

Well, the last 2 days have been productive!
The front is finished, the back is finished, the middle ... also ...
Some touch-ups and Dzus to install, a clean up and PAF!: It smells of stable!

Here are some pictures for which I apologize in advance for the cleanliness of the model.
But it is heavy and the last assemblies require full hand handling.

Hi,

That's it, the last touch-ups are done, the last parts installed and the last minute adjustments made.
So I redid the wedges that support the Roaring Beauty with a slightly increased "ground clearance".
They are turned in a 10mm aluminum log for more solidity and stability, the Baby is doing well: 1.4kg
... and decorated with Cavallino.

Image

I connected the last tube and made a little oil to inject it inside.

Image

Image

Here are some images of the finished model.
I will certainly do more later.

Hi Pascal,

final question (for now) ;) regarding painting since you don't give lessons. Do you clear the bare metal parts like suspension, the oil tanks, or do you use a transparent metal primer or something similar?
Cheers,
Roman
