This is the starting point for my GWCC Auto category entry: the Belkits 1/24 Ford Fiesta RS WRC 2011 ADAC Rallye Deutschland.

The kit is still unstarted, and this first update is focused on presenting the contents and planning the build. The box includes the plastic parts, clear parts, tires, decals, photo-etched details, and night race parts. My first step will be to inspect the body shell, check the fit of the main parts, review the decal sheet, and prepare the surface for primer and paint.

For this project, I want to focus on a clean and realistic WRC finish. The plan is to build a smooth gloss white base, apply the complex rally livery carefully, and treat the graphics like real vinyl applied over the body. I will pay special attention to body preparation, decal placement, glass clarity, cockpit details, wheels, photo-etched parts, and final presentation.
