Lancia 037, Hasegawa, 1/24

Post by MarcoSaupe »

Hi

I don't see a specific place for rallye cars, so I'll put it into sports cars...

a modeling year is not complete without a kit in Martini livery, so I built the 1984 Lancia 037 by Hasegawa.

The kit has good and bad sides - some details are nice or as seperate parts instead of moulded in, but on the other hand for example while the front cowling is removable, there is nothing beneth it, except for the lonely cooler. So I added a bit of a frame, filled the big holes to the cockpit and for the photo put a spare tire from the parts box in. The rear cowling was not removable, so I cut it off. I wanted to make it moveable using the hinges of the Studio27 PE set, but the parts were not usable. Parts of the set are nice, like the grill for the rear and the templates, but e.g. even some of the cooler grilles do not fit... The kit decals were also not the best, they might have been a bit old.

I added the usual stuff: some wires, microballed the seats and made belts from Leukosilk and etched parts.

Painted with TS26,29, several Alclad colours and Mr. Super Clear on top, everything was airbrushed, except for the chrome parts which I did using the Molotow Liquid Chrome marker.

Hope you like it.

As usual, a very nice model of you. The Decalmuster you have chosen flawlessly and the clear coat is perfect. Pity the bunny. do not provide details under the bonnet.

Wonderful result, especially with the front end. I too built this kit and have a Super Delta. I think Hasegawas decals are just bad across the board. The red is so dull....

Beautiful, as always. :D :D :D

How did you do such a nice job of painting the black around the windows? I have the blue and yellow Grifone version of this kit (will paint it red w/Studio 27 Martini decals), and there are no window masks.

Thanks and Cheers,
Greg
