I doubt you can use CAD without arms and legs... It could be the same with scratch building, how many people on this forum scratch build a complex object,(with complex object I mean not bend a plastic rod and consider it scratch building). ? Few only, in the last 10 years on this forum I saw only a handful scratch building a car. Why this? Nobody whant to learn how to scratch build? In the other hand I saw more people start to using 3D software and printers.

Thank you Donato! I ask at the costume person at work if they had a material that could work in 1/25 scale. They gave me to try few pieces, I liked this one because is softer, even after the color is applied. Thank you Jerry! Will see when done! Thank you Bob!

Thank you Carl! Thank you David! Thank you Donato!

I ask at work if they had a material that can suit my project. I work as Model maker for an animation studio.

Yes, A pain to make but worth it! Very fuzzy! For some reason I cannot change the title of the tread... The trim on the door is removed, maybe the light make it too shiny.

The yellow is similar to the one they used on the Suzuki LJ 20 in the 70's. Thank you David! We used to have a LJ 80, great gear ratio for mountains trail. I wish they could import it in the US. Thank you Garry!

Little progress on this one... Drilled out the front head light, will replace them with clear one. The interior got some upgrade too... I made new steering wheels, rear speakers and key chain... The rest of the interior got new upholstery... And is completed. It was teh most tricky interior I hawe done. but I think it came out good. Before start, i painted few parts on the interior and painted chrome.

I just finish this one. It is a Suzuki Jimny from Aoshima, snap kit in 1/32. All the pieces fit great, great quality molding and casting, in fact you can build it without painting it. The decals also are very good, not water slide, but paper decal. I modified it little bit cutting the front bender bottom part and fill the tail light on the rear bumper. Also decided to make new steele wheels instead of the one that came with the kit. I decided to give it a retro look, so I painted the grille, mirrors and rear bumper the same color of the body, front bumper painted white. Like the old LJ20 from the early 70's. Fun and fast kit to build! Here the work on front and rear bumper. The front one I had to add a piece on the bottom to cover where i cut. the rear I had to add a piece across because it looks better.

Any CA (like SuperGlue) glue.

What is the best glue for glass/clear surfaces?
Brizio replied to AlbertS's topic in Tips, Tricks, and Tutorials
It depend how big they are, on a model in 1/25 I use Mikro mark Same Stuff plastic welder. On model in 1/5 scale two part epoxy, using a tooth pick. -
Not able to go to switch pages on individual topics.

I'm having the same problem, I'm using a Mac, Chrome and I disactivated ad blocker. If this is going to be fixed, it would be possible to have a new tread with the info. Because reply to this post will add more to the 2nd page and I cannot have access. Thanks! -
It is always fun to build! Agree on the casting, it is pretty nice and clean, with minimal flashing. Good to know about the '62 chassis. Thanks Bob!
-
I usually live the metal axle, ora add metal pins if needed, I find it more secure to hold the weight of the car. I like better the '62, but this is a specific build and need a '64.

I just paint the motor, soon I'll post some photos. Thank you Bob! Thank you Sam!
-
Thank you David! Thanks David! It is based on the real barnmobile. Thank you David! Glad you like it!
-
I'll post few, the rest with the build are on my instagram. I cannot post the link for some reason. It is based on an existing barn-vehicle. It seems that the 1/1 one has a Chevy van under it. Than kyou Alan! LOL! Than kyou Garry! For sure! Thank you David!
-
It is finally finished, way fun to build it! The running gear/chassis is out of a 1986 Chevy El Camino SS. Steering wheels, seat and hubcaps are from the spare part box, so no idea where they came from. The barn is scratchbuilt, also all the tools on it, shovel, bucket, lantern, light ficture, horse shoe and scythe. I had particular fun making the scythe and the wind mill. The wind mill will spin!

Some great work areas for sure! I just remodel mine at work, unfortunately I cannot take photo of the movie props, cannot take photo inside the building either. Believe me great stuff! Here my workbench at home, I usually post in my treads.
