Brizio Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) This is from a contest in another forum. The body is from a sand box toy, and was molded and casted in resin and sent to all the participants. Here the VW... I already cut a trim on the base. Now more cutting, tires, fenders and windows.
