Front mesh instead of sticker

Nascar cars details like headlights or grilles are made of sticker in the real thing… Salvinos decals covers thats pretty good, except real-real mesh that is incorporated in the front bumper of next generation racecars. I need to improve that! First, I did pencil drawing on paper tape – based on decal from the box.…

Initial paint job started

After application of white surfacer a lot of imperfections popped up… I was expeting some but not to that level – it seems like Bandai kits rised the quality bar and I got used to that – SalvinosJr – something to improve 🙂 I painted the engine and transmission with Tamiya laquers. Those combined with…

Hood improvement and painting preps

I didn’t like molded (closed) hood vents, took one of my gunpla scribing cheesels and start to dig the holes in the hood 😉…after few minutes left side of the hood was completed, now there is no turning back. Yeah! Now it looks waaaay better! Another dry fit before cleaning – hood looks sweet –…

After watching 2023 season…

Kshatriya remote control

My Kshatriya LEDs are controlled by two Arduinos, during the project I added BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) module, to have ability to control lightning by phone.That worked, I was able to turn on and off LEDs via console application on my iPhone. Some time ago, I took a challenge to program another Arduino board with…
