Talbot-Lago T26C, Heller, 1/24

[MarcoSaupe]

Hi,

this time I built an easier, simple kit in between bigger projects - the Talbot-Lago T26C by Heller. I built the same car before with the Smer (Merit) kit, but the Heller one is a bit better, especially the wheels can be used as they are.

Painted with TS10, 29 and some Alclad Metal colors. The decals were broken, so I chose some numbers from the spare box; it's a museum car, not built to a specific race. I added the usual wires, the front suspension was done with bare metal foil, and I opened the grille and replaced it with metal.

I'd really like to have a few more, simple kits from cars of this time; almost OOB, no rivet counting, just a little bit fun to build it.

Hope you like it.

Hi Marco,

Thanks for showing a rare an beautiful vintage F1 car model. Your execution is great. The paint looks very good.

The Heller model is definitely better than the Smer kit. The weakest thing in the Smer kit is the tyres and wheels. The engine is comparable to the Heller kit.
