Stefan Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 This is my Karmann made from the Gunze kit. The roofrack is scratchbuilt: I placed the model into a little diorama: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 My wish has been granted! Very nice work! What is the roof rack made of? I need to try that technique on a future wagon buildup.....:twisted: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Posted July 7, 2006 Author Share Posted July 7, 2006 The roofrack is made of copperwire which I soldered together. I build this one some years ago, I don´t know if I could make it that nice again... :oops: The wooden parts are just styrene stripes.
