As we all know, diecast models have paint troubles.
Even the expensive models from CMC and GMP has this problems.
I had the same with my SWB of CMC and decided to repaint it.
Because I am only collecting Ferrari models in red the choice of the colour was not difficult.
I wanted to build my SWB like this:
Well, I have done a lot of HW's, but a CMC is something else to do.
After priming we going to start with the red colour.
When the red paint has dried, we gave everything a few clear coats.
I let this all dry for a few weeks and then we are going to polish everything.
In meanwhile I repainted the interior from blue to black, because this is nicer to the red outside.
Polishing time:
Then it is time to put everything back together and that's not easy with a CMC.
The doors and the hood etc. were not fitting anymore because of the thick layers of paint I used.
Therefore I glued everything on its place, so I have no opening parts anymore.
But I don't care, I am not playing with my models, they stay in there vitrine boxes for beauty!
Would I do another CMC in the future?
I don't think so, it's not easy!
Thanks for watching!

Well done. Maybe the first WiP on a CMC we've ever seen on this forum. Unless cobos did once?
But too bad for the too thick layers. It would have pissed me off if I had this issue. 'cause I love playing with openings _________________ I have a dream: le bruit du V12 Ferrari dans la ligne droite des Hunaudières |
