Very nice Chuck.

Looks great Bruce.

Coming along nicely Art.

Very nice paint and decal work. -
The peak of the wheel opening arc is the apex (highest point) of the curve. The opening in this photo looks more "D" shaped than a true semicircle.

Ed has some very nice American Racing Mags. And some nice 5 slots.

Porsche 964 RSR Driven Only 6 miles
afx replied to afx's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I can tolerate the purple wheels centers but that interior makes me nauseous. -

Great stance and wheel/tire combo.

When I say raise the opening I'm talking about the lower edge, raise the apex of the opening not actually move it up higher on the fender. Regardless of what you decide to do or not do, I love the build so far. Yea they often slide to body back to induce more weight transfer causing the axles line to be forward of center.

Mock-up looks great and IMHO I think you nailed the stance. You could maybe thin out the lip around the rear wheel and raise the opening a bit. That would give you more tire clearance without having the raise the rear of the car.

Very nice.

Otaki 1/12 Lamborghini Countach Twin Turbo...Mission Statement
afx replied to Dann Tier's topic in WIP: Model Cars
scratch build - I think. -
Haven't tried to upload from a phone but check here and see if any of this works.

Tuned out great.

Thanks Alex & Dann. Started work on the interior. With (nearly) full glass and a black interior I don't think I will go crazy on the detail. I did that with my Escort RS1800 build and most of the work is very hard to see.

I've never seen this style hardtop on a 1:1 but I do like it. Nice build Ken.
-
The PE parts in this case are a big improvement.
-
I've always liked this car - nice job.
-
This is my favorite scribe for fine detail work: 0.7 mm mechanical pencil cut the head off a straight pin of similar gauge (diameter) install it in place of the lead

Thanks Joe & Scott. I adapted the Fujimi EM wheel hubs so I could use their Fuchs wheels. Everything else is as it comes in the Italeri kit.

Great system Alan.
