SCRATCHBUILDING

Very interesting and absorbing hobby but that takes time. It is a hobby for those patients guys, or with too much free time, because it isn´t rare that a work gets delayed months to see it finished .. Quite the opposite that preparing a car for running that in a couple of evenings could be working fine.

Do you like a specific model and it isn´t mass-produced? Does the model you like so badly reproduced at 1/32 scale? Do you like a decoration of a car that will never going to be sell? For simple, do its yourself. Arm yourself with patience, because it is the fundamental tool in this hobby, from there, you'll need to know more or less complex techniques, but if you persist you´ll achieve the objectives, otherwise, it is not a rewarding hobby. In fact, it´s easy to end up becoming a continuum beginning of works that were abandoned in the drawer of unfinished work. Against this negative aspect is that we must be fighting against, because it is a pity to have left good works time and time waiting for a "magic" solution that will not come unless we get down to work on it.

In this section, organized by the types of work (early works, simple works and decorations) and the models divided by brand (Porsche, Renault and other manufacturers), is where I´m goint to post the step by step construction of the scale models, with more or less detailed explanations about. In some cases, whether it is more complex techniques I discuss it in the section "techniques and tricks" and elsewhere if they are simple things I´ll explaine briefly withing the "step by step".

So, without further, I hope you enjoy the section.
