Lancia Beta Montecarlo Turbo Gr.5 1/12
Hi,
after my Porsche 956 is done i started a new project.
Or i had to say that Torsten from http://www.scaleautofactory.com started it for me.
I ask him if he can do me a 3d-printed model of the Lancia Beta and Torsten started it very fast.
So many thanks again to Torsten for his hard work and the great result.
The next car is already in the making!
http://www.scaleautofactory.com/build.p ... review.xml
He used a rfactor mod as starting point and made all the construction work.
Every part was printed in his own 3d-printer.
He changed ofter the design for the print parts and at the end i got my dream car the Lancia in 1/12 scale.
My favorit livery is the "Fruit of the Loom" car of german driver Hans Heyer.
He won the DRM champion of 1980 against the Porsche 935 and Turbo Capris with this Lanica.

So he started his design with the mod and made it step by step ready for the printer.
And after a while i got most of the parts ready for sanding work.
Its a long way to the end for sure.But its easier to do this with that cool 3d technique than by the own hands.
At the moment i started to cut all the windows out and after this is done i will glue the three body parts together.
Thats all at the moment.This will be an long time project because i only do it at lunchtime at work.
My first priority is the finish of my Porsche 956 dual build which will start in a few weeks.
So dont expect too often an update here.This is time consuming.
regards Christian

Superb choice for a model!!
The Gr 5 Turbo`s from the DRM have been real monsters, still have to search my popcorn and lay back to see what you will show up with!
Nice start on it, i too think that a master build by hand should have taken weeks to be done, and with the oppertunity to do it by 3D printing, why not!

Re: Lancia Beta Montecarlo Turbo Gr.5 1/12
continue with the Lancia.
The windows are out now.I used the Tamiya saw and it works fine.
After that i glued all three parts together.
Than i used a thicker spray filler for the body.
At the end i used 2k putty for the body.
Seams like a lot of work for me.
