Thanks bud
Got inspired as I could not find a replacement engine cover/wing on eBay so decided to use some stuff from work and give it a go. That is a dental acrylic resin wing
Have lots of flash and mis cast areas to smooth out, but is a better start than full on scratch building the wing.
I will do another photo when I am happy with it.
Tried a silicone mould and resin cast of a Fujimi kit's rear engine cover and spoiler to try and replace the missing one from my kit. First time I have tried this.
Last pic is the rough fitment with lots to trim, add to and refine, but this should be workable
Ya, I will do a good workbench/ workspaces and garage posting when they are decently organized
These guys have a short attention spans so I didn't do a work in progress thread
Harry's passing has hit me pretty hard, but inspired me back to car building love
Opening up that big Pocher Bugatti kit is going to be super weird....miss that dude
No Pocher started yet. We are in the house just before Christmas, still lots to do to finish off I got a workbench set up, but most everything is in boxes
How did I miss out on all of this???!!! Gheeze and my favourite builder too. Oh well late to the party, but here I am. Funny, I just bought a 1/24 junkyard Cobra on eBay to do as a repair project Have at it Briz, everything looks great so far
Thank you, it has been a bit of work for sure We shall see how happy I am with it when I get the first bit of primer on It feels pretty smooth, but you know how that goes Scott
Got the engine and transmission out and soaked in the oven cleaner. The chrome on the engine block and parts literally melted away almost immediately. The black painted area took just a couple hours.
There was a lot of yellow cement present and thankfully most weakened and let parts come off and/or scraped away easily
