They came with the body kit

Did it by mixing colors and airbrush

The body is completely selfmade

Thanks!

260mm

Indeed, same era

Thanks! 👍

It's a highly modified Graupner chassis from the '90s. The entire rear section is selfmade.

@@scalercmodels9261 Thanks for responding. What chassis would be feasible for making a 60s F1 car today?

A Tamiya F104 or Fenix Classique would be the ideal basis. Actually the Fenix Classique offers a nice range of '60s bodies already

Thanks! Usually the final one is between 400-600. Actually anything above 400 doesn't make a difference

@@scalercmodels9261 Thank you for the reply - it is appreciated!

It is selfmade. See here: th-cam.com/video/3tLdlrRCOXo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=QTimrYZTxeFYiDFv and here: th-cam.com/video/_ce_BMJzpNU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=E4orD10Pua4-NBZS

Actually, when I remember corectly these wings in this case are made out of 1 piece of foamboard and a balsa stringer. The foamboard gets a kink inside, then some tape for protection on the outside and then is bended over the edge of a table, over the stringer and finally fixated with a little epoxy. Normally I use two sheets, but indeed I answered wrong in a previous comment

Aeronaut Depron 6mm for the wings and 5mm Vector Board for the Fuselage (except the top, this is also Depron). The engine covers are also Depron

@@scalercmodels9261 if use cardboard is it OK or will there be bad consequences

Precise build and right center of gravity etc. is certainly more critical than the choice if the materials. I have never used cardboard, but have seen successful builts

Thanks! It is my own design. Actually, the mold was used before for the fuselage of a Focke-Wulf FW190.

It does not always work as good as seen in this video. I have fails from time to time. I experienced, that Makrolon seems the best Polycarbonate (for me). I cannot say why, but it works a bit better than others. Pre-drying is also key. I pre-heat my molds only slighly before with a heat gun. A strong vacuum and being very quick from the oven to the mold is also a success key. And furthermore... it took me quite a while and several attempts until I had my 1st acceptable result.

@@scalercmodels9261 Thank you for your response and precision, I understand that success is not 100% guaranteed every time, but already after the 3rd attempt I am very happy to have managed to get my first body out, I understand that the speed of the gesture is essential, I have already reduced as much as possible the delay between the oven and my installation, I still have to practice to try to reach your speed and improve everything that is possible for me to improve, in any case thank you for sharing all that, for providing us with all the technical points and the feedback from your own experience, I confirm it to you, this allows someone who wishes to also achieve things with this technique ... I follow your channel with attention and admiration. Best regards

Would be a nice one, indeed. Just time is lacking...

@@scalercmodels9261 what do you mean?

I mean this is just a hobby. Work, family... there are other👍 duties as well

@@scalercmodels9261 I feel you I might do one myself

But I don’t have a big enough house

Thanks, will do!

Thanks! 🫶

Thanks! If you continue with your project, I'd be interest to see your results. The GT40 is also still on my bucket list 😀👍

They are selfmade - as the complete body is selfmade from scratch

​@@scalercmodels9261thanks, yes I have watched how you make bodies. Very interesting. Please can I ask you which PS colours you have used for the red and the yellow paint?

PS2 & PS19

Backed with black each

Thanks!

No, it's only hobby 👍

3-view prints of the original car and a bit of experience

In total approx. 3-4 hours of work from the first coating until it was done. But not in one go - including the time needed to dry the filler and/or the spray, it was 2-3 days. It's like filler - sanding - filler - sanding - filler - sanding - zincspray - sanding and then it depends if you still see dents or bubbles, maybe again some filler and sanding and the very final is always zincspray and sanding with fine sandpaper (400 or more)

Thanks!

@@scalercmodels9261 you could make bank on them if you choose to make mass produce them.

A 15 years old Alfa Model 60mm EDF. Not very powerfull but good enough for such a light model

@@scalercmodels9261 Thanks a lot

In principle start woth a chassis which would suit the car/body in the best way (width/wheelbase and height). Then search for blueprints or drawings of your dream car and adopt it to the chassis (maybe it needs to be a bit wider or longer to fit). Then make up you mind if the shape of your car allows the mold to be on one piece of if you need separate sections to take it later out of the body. A 1:18th or 1:24th model also helps to find the right shape. In my channel you find many videos about different mold and bodies which I made, so you can get roughly an idea about the process
