LDO Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 I let two relatives move in while they got back on their feet. I gave up my computer desk and model workbench. They moved out, and I feel like the house is mine again. I just got it set up today. I want to finish up two tanks first, then back to a car project.

LDO Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 First up: King Tiger “Anneliese”. (Name painted on the barrel). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDO Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 I think this will be the next car project. It’s an attempt from years ago at a Ferrari 308 Funny Car body. Carved foam covered in a thin layer of fiberglass, then the foam was dissolved with acetone. Kind of a rough effort, but I think it can be saved .

Dave Ambrose Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I know the feeling. Those are some interesting pictures above your build table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toner283 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Those look like Keith Weesner artwork. Awesome artist. Lots of hot rods, bikes and girls. And lots of Jetsons type retro flying machines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDO Posted April 8, 2020 Author Share Posted April 8, 2020 Yes, Keith Weesner prints. I would like to find more of the flying cars. I also think it would be cool to build a model inspired by them. I just don’t know where I would find a figure like the girls in his paintings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89AKurt Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Cheering you on! Sort of like a rebirth to get back into the hobby. I have no idea about the artist and what the women look like, but Shapeways has a large selection, I used one for my Ferrari. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatMan Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Good for you! I'm still waiting to get my space back from my daughter's rabbit. Little guy wasn't supposed to last this long but he keeps hanging in there. I'm cool with it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
