tiking Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 (edited) Still adding details to this build, before calling this finished. But thought I'd showed it, seeing that it was close to finish. Yep! Another anti-gravity vehicle. I can't seem to get enough. I tend to want to turn everything in to a floating subject. For this conversion, I used the Revell Ford GT vehicle and did some major surgery to it. The original engine was very basic block engine. But the overall design made this a sweet candidate for a super bad and awesome looking anti-gravity vehicle. Lots of small misc. from my 'box of tricks', was used to give the engine a more brutal look. Since I did the F1 hover race car(found on this forum as well), I just went ahead and did one for the Le MANS racing fans. The anti-gravity pods simple scratch builds using odds materials from household materials and parts from other kits. So far, I think the look says it all. Hope to finish this up in a week or two. waiting for a figure to go along with this bad***! See you when it is done. Enjoy the photos.

TomZ Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I am generally not a big fan of this sort of thing, but I really, really like this! How much does the downforce from the wing improve cornering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dust? Yeah! After all, where is the environment going? Unless we destroy it altogether. As for the parts/areas you mentioned, maybe. But I do not want to mess with the front any more. If I was to change it it should have been done in before painting and adding the decals. So that's out. But appreciate the input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunajammer Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I love things like this. Wonderful detail too. Guess it's time for me to go to my box of glue bombs and see if I'm any good at this kind of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiking Posted January 24, 2020 Author Share Posted January 24, 2020 I did some changes to the original car that I made sometime ago. I wanted a little more aggressive look and thus came up with this design. I used quite a few everyday items and parts from my 'Misc. box of tricks'.
