very nice, did you have any problems building it? i'll be building one of these soon

i think it was premier Noel. Tom Geiger (if i remember correctly) shared a pic of one a few years back when the renault dauphines were being discussed but i cant remember which thread t was. i seem to remember it being black plastic and a multi piece body

i would say this is a good one to get. its not many parts but with some extra time on body prep and detailing it can turn out a nice build and many of the other flathead engine parts can be scaled to fit this. the body and fenders are one part and it has the hood too but mine didn't turn out nice so i left it off and i forgot to print the rad pipes. the grille and rad is one piece on this

yes, but just enough to colour it, clear would make it blotchy cos its very thin, lol

've had almost a set of those wheels in my stash for a while. now i know where they came from

this was only intended to be a test print to check the scale when i print it to build. i've found it to be undersized but i decided to throw it together anyway. it had one coat of filler primer to get rid of the worst of the print lines, then a light 600 followed by 1500 sponge. you can see a hard edge on the body, this is from my pausing the printer to add more resin and is a mistake on my part. i took it off the printer at 1pm on monday and all the big parts were painted and together by 4. i spent a couple hours detail painting and making glass this morning and all the chrome is molotowe from an old pen (lasted much better than green stuff world has) applied with a brush. since this is just a quick build nothing was masked. i did swap to hub caps from a revell 48 custom and a printed 48 steering wheel in pearl white. if i had spent time on body prep it would look much better and i'll be doing that on the correctly sized version. all in all, it still looks ok and if i used some of my light lenses would be much more convincing but i didn't want to waste them on something i know is wrong but for 6 hours and no effort..... the flat spot is from having the body too close to the printer edge

some of the bodies are available in 1/32 prints but they might be blocky when scaled up https://cults3d.com/en/users/ainsliecarolina/3d-models

All the work you guys have done in this thread has been fun to watch. My own build hasn't moved from the last update as i grew to dislike the way it looked but i think i have a way to fix it. its still going to be much the same at the back but i'll remove a few mil from the intakes on the running boards as it sits much to tall and the front fenders are getting swapped again. i've not given up on it but i need to find my direction with it. it will be staying ev powered

gear up for an appocalypse of fire while watching the world freeze seems to be prepper inteligence

theres a big market for used food too,but we mostly call that pol-ee-tiks

its the add on vents on top of the fender thats being looked for

lovely work on this. the engine bay looks great and the interior looks ready to get in and drive. is that the stock interior or have you modded it?

thats perfect, thanks

Hi folks, I'm needing the width of the cowl on an amt 36 ford. i need from the tip of the side trim to the same on the other side, where it ends for the hood please. i prefer millimetres if possible. i did a print and i cant tell if its closer to the amt or monogram kit in size but i know its wrong and this will help me rescale it

revell are pretty good for having a raised section recently. the e-tron kit was the same. dont forget to mask the outside too, i forgot once and it took a lot of cleanng

trace the area onto paper then use that to make masking tape templates. use good tape for the edges and you'll be finewhere i want to paint then used that to get the template. its an easier way as it lets you have an edge to cut the mask. i've also masked someone might make a mask for them already so ebay could be worth a look.

outome s the lawnmowers in march and out goes the cold mornings

you could print them on photo paper, the satin finsh paper could be fairly convincing and the thickness of the photo paper would add to the effect

insomnia? when did you learn chinese?

you could get a wing from a lambo but the rear vents are completely different. the lambo ones are very short while the pantera cover the top of the fender. if you have acess to a printer you could print a pantera as a slightly smaller scale then remove the fender tops to use to make the vents. if you get the scale right it should just mean cut the top off the fender, add a base to it and fit to the kit. if you printed a gts body you would get the wing too

Nice save, and you've given me an idea for a chevy body i have that got hacked up

dinner time can mean lunchtime or evening meal in scotland

tonight the light of love is in your eyes, wait, no, its a train, RUN

so it really is mind blowing then

I'm loving this already
