Its been in the draw for years no idea what it is but I am going to cut the roof off and de seam it, maybe a few other mods dont know yet, maybe a drag racing dio I dont know ? any suggestions welcome.

Already completed that one as you can see, I thought you would give me a great build for that one.

Good canidate for a Rat Rod me thinks! Looking forward to seeing it build out.

A steampunk car...? :P

Or an old garage? Is the perfect "pretext" to try weathering skills.

Or just a "maxi tunning" paint work..

Which scale is it? 1/24?

 

[Deleted member 3568]

I think judging buy putting it up against christine its 1/24 or 1/25 I can't remember must be over 20 years old.

[treyzx10r]

[flyjoe180]

Pimp that ride Ken. Nice work so far, will watch with interest to see what you do with it.

 

[Deleted member 3568]

Thanks guys and gal got a few things in mind for it, I think (if it works) the end result should be quite dramatic.

 

[Deleted member 3568]

Hi all this is where I am at tonight not sure I like it yet feedback please.

 

[flyjoe180]

Hard to envisage it without the other bits, but looks okay so far Ken.

you may wonder why ive painted the wires on the bottom of the leds. well thats because I know from bitter experience that the glue from a glue gun will conduct electric so i need to insulate the connections.

 

[Polux]

Nice and interesting!! Looking very good to me

got a lot of colouring of the smoke and explosion but does it look convincing as a drag engine grenading.
