Suyata Madness of the street

[Tom_Vd]

This is my new project. A kit of Suyata. Madness of the street. scale 1:32

A armored sportscar included with a female racer. Actually we have 2 female racers. 1 with helmet and the other without helmet. The name of the racer is Selena and the name of the car is Luna. I really like the whole design and concept.

The kit is verry wel molded with nice details. I can’t find any annoying flash. There are a few parts that has a seemline but this can be removed. A clear and pleasant guide to follow is also included😊

I have no experience with weathering. But I will try it on this kit. This is also my first time making a car.

I’ll post pictures in the comments as we progress.
Have fun and a great day.

1 of the four tires.

The goal was going for a “dusty” (lightly dust from the brake pads) alloy wheel. In the middle must come a spike

This looks like a neat little kit Tom, I haven’t seen this manufacturer before so I’m interested to see how you go.
Thanks for sharing your build here.

Cheers, D

Today we painted the brake discs with the calipers. We drilled the holes and gave the discs a look as if they had been standing still for a while. (light rust).

We won’t be able to see everything beceause the tire is in front of the disc. But we know that the details are there.

We have finished the dashboard.
It has nice details. The car is for a woman so a pink steering wheel is suitable.

I may have exaggerated a bit with the dirt on the dashboard. But i like it so far.It doesnt have to make sense.

It’s been a while since we’ve posted anything.
Hope everyone is safe with this coronavirus.

The cockpit of the car is ready.

The belts are completely scratch build, the first time I try this.

The seats are installed in the car.

We have filled the gaps. Let it harden, sand it down and add another layer.

Let’s try to install LED lights. White in the front.
Red in the rear for breaking lights and white in the rear for reverse lights.

For the red lights I use optic fiber that I connect to an LED with a shrink tube.

This is how I create 5 small lights from 1 LED.

The exhaust pipes of the car were finished today.
First time trying rust weathering.

Armored plate with spikes for the hood of the car.

We tried to make it look weathered. I’m a total noob in weathering
