Very nice OOB with some great weathering. I remember, which is a feat now days, when the original care was featured in Rod & Custom mag. It was so cool that I just had to rush out and buy the kit. Thanks for the flash back.

Thanks for another amazing conceptual model build. Thank you so much for sharing your trials and successes. Gorgeous display! I love the electrical conduit, as with all your display structures. -
Marvel's Hydra coupe 1/12 scale full scratch build
Big John replied to François's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Thanks, the idea of printing in clear resin does open a new world of options for the technology. the UV cure should be throughout the part and complex window shapes sanded and polished. ? -

Being an old stage hand I really like the lights instruments François. Did you print the lenses and/or cast them in clear resin? -

One of my favorite TV, and bucket list cars, is this tasty 34 ford coupe with 32 grill from a Life of Riley show 1956. -
Who doesn't love a mock-up? Let's see yours!
Big John replied to Belairconvertable's topic in WIP: Model Cars
The Ardun exhaust is unique that the ports exit straight down. Might need a creative frame design around the engine. Hope to see more of your build. Thanks. -
I know the guys at TDR, I believe that's the name, had a 1/8 printed V12 at Shapways that could have been scaled down to any scale. However, I believe, Shapways has gone under and the guys at TDR were a collective on facebook and no longer sell their products. Please correct me if I am wrong. The data files for thee Allison V12 engine are out there somewhere and digital files can be scaled to any size.
