Antikainen Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Well well, it´s time to reveal pics of this previously highly classified vehiche which is rumoured to have been Red Barons personal transportation during ww.. vw.. OK, let´s cut the bs. Here is my imaginary vision of one srange bug. Gunze kit with custom paint, lowered stance, modelhaus swamp cooler, aluminium spun hubcaps and some scratchbuild and PE parts. Boy this was fun to build! Edited January 14, 2013 by Antikainen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Smith Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I like that. Cool concept and execution. I like the wheels - the slight set back on the discs really set them off well. Really cool roof rack, too. The Baron could slide his surf board up there and head to the, uh, well, drive around with a surf board. Nice work.

Dr. Cranky Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I love it. Excellent idea. I am assuming you used an ink pen for the lines and rivets, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Killer Concept ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antikainen Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Thanks for kind words all you people! Paint: Tamiya light gun metal + tamiya pearl clear + some light sanding to get rid of excess shine. Ink pen for lines and rivets. Lines and rivets are ment to look quickly free hand painted, they are not ment to replicate real ones. I have had a little piece of red tinted acetate for a long now, been saving it for some gasser model.. but decided to use it for this one instead. Oh, and here is the only pic I have from interior: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
