Project Summary

This project is a 1/24 scale Ford Fiesta RS WRC 2011 ADAC Rallye Deutschland by Belkits. The build will focus on the visual impact of a modern WRC car, combining a clean gloss white body finish with the complex rally livery applied as realistic vinyl graphics. I want the final model to look like a well-prepared competition car rather than an over-weathered rally vehicle, with attention to decals, glass clarity, interior details, wheels, small exterior parts, and a subtle race-used appearance only where it helps realism.

Entrega final!!!

Acá llegó al final de este recorrido. Agradezco a los que me siguieron en este proceso y me apoyaron. Yo no soy experto en autos, apenas el año pasado abrí mi primer auto por lonque entiendo que no tengo el nivel de los maestros que si ví acá en este grupo, me encontré en el camino varias cosas y tropiezos que debí resolver. Además, no tenía intensión de hacer alguna base pero la hice motivado por ustedes y me atreví a ensuciar por primera vez un auto, lo cual la verdad me puso muy nervioso. La idea era representar algo lo más realista posible y bueno espero que sea de su agrado al menos, igual espero con ansias sus opiniones y consejos para poder seguir mejorando

Sin progresos en mi proyecto que compartir está semana por estar trabajando en la organización de lo que ven en la foto

Sin progresos en mi proyecto que compartir está semana por estar trabajando en la organización de lo que ven en la foto

Queridos amigos, está semana no pude avanzar al final de mi proyecto.


Debí trabajar duro en culminar y lanzar la web del evento que mi club está organizando y que es ese que ven arriba en la foto, al cual, por cierto se encuentran cordialmente invitados ya que tiene un segmento online.


Aún me falta algunas cosas pero espero la verdad está semana si poder culminar lo que falta de mi modelo y espero entonces poder compartir esos nuevos avances finales con ustedes.


Feliz día a todos.

Slow progress this week but...

But the water in the resin is already applied. On top, there's already the water gel to give it dynamism. Now we have to wait for it to dry to add some specific foams. And finally, I'll try to lightly dirty the car, which I think will be the most difficult part.

Here's the base "almost" ready...

After painting each stone and adding vegetation, it looks like this. The river water is still missing, which I'll make with resin. I printed the "OK" sign to scale and put it on the windshield. I also printed the safety triangle to scale, glued it to a sheet of acetate, and placed it in its spot. In some photos, you'll see a Skoda that doesn't belong there. It's another car I finished earlier, but I put it there just to see how it looked. In this case, only the Ford belongs, which is the one I'm using here. I still need to lightly dust some parts of the car. I don't want to overdo it and make it too dirty, so I'll try to be more careful with that part because I tend to get things as dirty as the tanks I'm used to building. And it's not that these don't get dirty—sometimes even worse than a tank—the point is, I like the current finish and I don't want to ruin it.

Base painted black again and starting to paint

The base is now painted and practically finished. I used a lot of things, but because I was focused on the process, I didn't take many pictures. Here are some photos of how it looks almost complete. I used pigments from Ammo Mig and AK Interactive, Missing Link markers, Ammo Drybrush, Atom, Ammo, Tamiya, and AK Real Color Lacquer paints, as well as Ammo shaders. Each stone was painted one by one.

I had already placed the first black layer on the base and decided to test the slope of the asphalt, but it turned out to be unrealistic, particularly on the curve where I was representing the road.


The unrealistic part was the slope I had intentionally added. I wanted it to look like it was going downhill, but when I placed the car on the asphalt to check the dimensions, I realized that one tire was hanging off the ground by almost 1 cm, which would represent 24 cm in real life.


Anyway, I'm here now, so what can you do? I grabbed a utility knife, peeled off the asphalt, and added some filler to level the road a bit so that all the wheels would touch the asphalt. I know that no car will end up in the final representation, but what I was aiming for was unrealistic, so since I'm still working on this, I have to see how to resolve this situation... and solve the problem. I've already filled it in; now I'll add more filler to cover the gaps... I'll post how it looks later.


I apologize profusely, but I've almost turned this into a real-time update. The thing is, I'm not used to documenting processes. I'm the type who sits down to work and makes a lot of progress, correcting and changing many things and processes along the way, so this is something new for me. And since the idea is to document the entire process and not just the final results, I'm showing you almost live how I'm working, changing, or progressing on the pieces I'm assembling.

Another change of plans... in the process...

My apologies, but with these things it's often difficult for me to stick to a plan, haha. I just see how it develops as I go. In this case, my plan was to mask it off, add the plants, prime everything in black, and then airbrush it all over again. But I added the plants to see how they would look and where they would be, and seeing their variety of colors, I liked what I saw. So I won't glue the plants on yet. I'll proceed to prime in sections and paint the earth tones in sections until I achieve the desired effect. I'll show you how it's coming along.
