"Outside" Pictures of a replica of: Rick Dore's "Illusion"
ea0863 replied to John Teresi's topic in Model Cars
My favorite post of this past year! I saw the car at SEMA, and even took a few photos with Mr. Dore - who never wondered too far away from his creation. You nailed the colors, stance, lines and everything else perfectly! -
I've been away from the hobby for a bit as life just got super busy, so I decided to wade back into the shallow end of the pool before diving into more major builds. I had a tired Bburago Bugatti Type 59 that I couldn't make up my mind what do with - I've always loved the car, but not crazy about the tall fenders on this version. Thus, I decided to take the fenders off, and give the body a more weathered and raced look with lots of Tamiya Panel Line Accent black. I also hit the seat with Tamiya red, and various other paints and finishes to add a bit of realism. Finally, a silver marker and Molotow chrome pen were used for details. Overall, the model came out beautiful - far better than the photos I managed to take. The weakest link in the whole project was the spoke wheels, which are not really fine enough for this scale, but overall I am very pleased. Stock Bburago Bugatti Type 59: Customized and sans fenders:

I'm loving them all Chris, but I too am particularly fond of your "Mountain Dew" trike - - - aaah, the nectar of the gods!

That should mean 5 times the fun then, right? Enjoy!

Oooh, that is so tasty!

Dave, I am so glad you are keeping it as-is. There is just no replacement for such great patina!
