  1. I started back on this last night. The wheels from the big rig kits were too big for the tire's, causing them to be stretched, plus the rears were too wide for the tire's. 

    New ones had to be fashioned out of two sets of wheels. A combination of 1/20 and 1/24.

    next up is the repainted of the shell. I've decided to ditch the chrome. I'll be going with the burning ember look similar to how the Batmobile looked at one stage, expect I'll be painting this shell with intent and planning. 

     

    Sorry for the split post, I have no idea how this happened.

    Well, you saved it.  Great job under the circumstances. 

    Thank you Peter.

    Turned out awesome. Honestly, I hate the subject, as it's my least fav Batmobile, but yours is by far the best build I've seen of this. Even with the issues. Those extra details went a long way for sure.

    Thanks a ton Dan.  I totally agree with you on the original subject, it's an abomination, at least the changes I have made make it more visually palatable. I'm excited to get started with the dio.

    Excellent rescue! 

    An effective and creative to deal with adversity, well done.

    Thanks very much David. I appreciate your interest in this, it still needs some finishing. When I get to building the dio I'll finish the car.

    Rider, those bullet and maybe shrapnel holes really do look realistic!

    I built this version shortly after it came out- here's a couple of pics.

    Thanks for looking in Paul, cool build dude, real nice work on the dash, wow. Check out the biceps on batman, huge, way out of proposition, lol. 

    I also built this kit way back in '93, I ended up giving it to some kid in the neighbourhood.

    Possibly create a "Riddler" figure with a machine gun to display with your car. That would be kind if cool actually.

    I like that idea, thanks I may do something like that.

    Great job. The battle damage is great. Must have been a busy week of crime fighting. Depending on the diorama  you have planned you could have some joker inspired graffiti maybe a joker face.
