SlotRacer Forum

I'm slowly working my way through all the content here.  Already I have seen plenty of posts with stuff in that's of interest to me - to a greater or lesser extent.

One type of thread I have yet to come across is showing-off your latest repaints.  Is it just that I haven't come across any yet, or isn't anyone bothered, or is there some other reason?

Now that I'm retired, I have quite a number of slot car projects (as well as household DIY..........) I need to catch-up on.  I'd like to be able to share images with you all, continuing from where I left off on SFI.  I wouldn't want to re-post the stuff I posted there, but if anyone hasn't seen those and is interested, drop me a PM and I will reply with a link - if I can find it since I deleted all my SFI links.

I don't seek validation or praise, just like to share the fruits of my very slow labours.

Hi Stu,

Post anything you feel like. Treat this as a new forum. There's always someone that never saw your pics before.

It's hard to find specific posts about just repaints. I don't know of a specific thread like that. But you can create a thread and start the ball rolling. I might even be able to add a pic or two from some of my crappy old threads.

Now we're starting to rock!  

Yes post away StuBeeDoo   Usually in the relevant scale or scratch building threads.

Here are some of my efforts over the time I have been here:

Scaleauto Porsche 963 White kit paint job. (slotracer.online)

Slot.it calibra white kit paints (slotracer.online)

Sideways Group 5 Escort white kit paints (slotracer.online)

Pioneer '37 Dodge Legends White Kits (slotracer.online)

Sideways Ferrari 512BB LM white kits (slotracer.online)

Sideways Skyline R30 fantasy liveries completed. (slotracer.online)

As this seems to have some legs I have moved it to a more appropriate place, renamed and pinned it. Hope this is OK Stuart?

Absolutely fine, Brian.  Thank you.  

I hope to be able to start adding my own contributions in the next few weeks.  I just need to get the decal sheet finalised and e-mailed to Colin for printing.

Congrats Stu!

Your thread got pinned. The first one in Scratch Building. Go picture crazy! 

Does “unpainting” count? This Spirit Porsche 936 body came to me as the #12 car. I was putting together the group of 3 Le Mans winning 936’s and dreading a strip and repaint & new decals when I noticed something odd about the roundel and number. A little elbow grease later #11 emerged with the proper drivers.

P.S. Sorry about the attachment. I don’t know how to remove it.

A standard NSR white club car generic F1 given slight body mod and some new paint to add some Italian spice to the grid.
