Hummer H1- WIP

Washed.

It took more than three days to separate and trim the parts from the runner.
3
November 23, 2024
Before doing full-scale painting, I applied primer to the etched parts.
4
November 23, 2024
I usually paint the body first, but this car had such a large body that I started by painting other parts first.
(Gloss Black, Grayish White, Beige, Flat Aluminium, Metal Black)
5
November 23, 2024
Next, I painted light gray parts.
And since the gloss of the black I painted before wasn't enough, I added one more layer of clear(gloss)t.
6
November 23, 2024
Now I gathered the parts to be painted black and painted them all at once.
7
November 23, 2024
After painting the outer surface of the body shell with white surfacer...
8
November 23, 2024
I painted Deep Yellow.
9
November 23, 2024
The surface area of the vehicle's exterior was so large that painting it in a single color would have been monotonous, so I masked it and painted it German Gray.
10
November 23, 2024
Last time I made a Ford GT, the masking lines were messy, so I threw away all the masking tape I had and bought all new ones. This time, I used new masking tape and was able to get clean line.
I found a large dust later, but I was exhausted from trimming the parts, so I decided to ignore it.
11
November 24, 2024
Since all the embossed letters on the exterior were removed, custom decals were placed in places where the Hummer logo was not supposed to be placed.
12
November 24, 2024
Painted pannel-line
13
November 24, 2024
I painted with paint brush. But I'm not too happy with the result.
Instead of doing useless splitting, I think these parts should have been split...
14
November 24, 2024
Anyway, now I've given the whole thing a matte coating.
15
November 24, 2024
Next, I painted the reflectors with silver using a brush and coat them with clear color.
16
November 24, 2024
The transparent parts were simply masked, painted with clear color, and then covered with silver.
17
November 24, 2024
Result.
18
November 24, 2024
All ready. Now let's assemble it.
19
November 25, 2024
The parts that fit together are perfect, but the ones that don't fit are so mismatched that they break like this. The steering part broke, so I had to fix it by putting in a pin.
20
November 25, 2024
When assembling, you have to be careful about the orientation of the parts.
21
November 25, 2024
An engine that looks simple despite its large number of parts.
22
November 25, 2024
The underbody of the car is complete.
23
November 25, 2024
Applied Quinta Studio's 3D Decal.
This is really nice.
24
November 26, 2024
Assembled center fascia.
25
November 26, 2024
The number of parts for the seat support is large, but it doesn't seem to mean much. Instead, it would have been better if the door handle was separated into a separate part...
26
November 26, 2024
The interior assembled and the side panels are attached.
27
November 26, 2024
Since the body shell might not match up if attached one by one, I pre-assembled them so that they could be attached all at once.
28
November 26, 2024
The shell fit the parts quite well. Little bit gaps or warping were fixed with cyanoacrylate.
29
November 27, 2024
Winter has come.
30
November 27, 2024
I attached a protective frame to the bottom.
31
November 27, 2024
Assembled door.
32
November 27, 2024
Attached door.
33
November 27, 2024
Finally, I attached the metal sticker(custom made) emblem.
34
November 27, 2024
All done.

For some reason, the front wheels automatically returned to the center even when the steering was turned.
Even after scraping off all the places where there might be interference between parts, it was the same.
I had no choice but to apply Extra Thin Cement and make it stiff.

Great build of an beast!
Do you paint the clear paints from back? I need to remember this - it looks fantastic 👍

The tail lights of old cars are opaque, so I paint them on the outside, and the clear tail lights of modern cars are painted on the inside.
And even when masking is difficult, it is sometimes painted on the outer surface.

Looks great! I'm struggling with tail lights too. Yours in picture 17 looks amazing. Would you please add the paint you used to your project? So I know what to order....

@yngvenett - I've written it down the color information in the project description now. 😉

Thanks! Ali Express delivers to Norway 😁 should I order a special thinner for these? [sorry for all my questions....]

Very nice work.

Thanks guys.
@yngvenett - No problem 😉 All the paints I listed are lacquer-based paints, and I do not recommend lacquer paints for brushing. And looking at your album, I can see that it is painted with a brush. Water-based paints have the worst quality in clear colors.
If you are going to paint with a brush, I recommend using Tamiya X-26, X-27.
This color comes in two types: enamel and alcohol-based. Alcohol-based paints can also be diluted with water.

Thanks again and for saving me from trouble 😬 There will be an airbrush some day, but until then these advices will save me lots of waisted money and space filled with totally useless paint that *almost* look right 😉
