Great looking mockup! David G.

That's coming along quite nicely. David G.

Impressive! David G.

The seat buttons look great! David G.

Nice work blending the flare, the louvers look great! David G.

There's nothing like an easy fix to brighten up your day Bob. David G.

Nicely Done! David G.

The paint and color look fantastic Bob! Smooth and shiny. I'm curious, how did you get the business with the fit of the hood sorted out? David G.

Hello Everybody! I got the first coats of paint on "The Batman". Don't worry, I plan to do something about the shine. I'll have to make some adjustments to the way his arms fit but it looks like the Ol' Caped Crusader will slide in behind the wheel quite nicely. Wait, what's this? Commissioner Gordon is on the viewscreen... upside down! Ooops! I wasn't paying attention when I placed the decal on the viewscreen and got it the wrong way about. That's OK, I think I can fix it. That's all for now, thanks for taking the time to look. David G.

I know, that fascinates me too Mike. How it was extrapolated from comic book illustrations is one of the things that most impresses me about this kit. And let's face it, comic book illustrations, especially of that era, aren't generally known for their consistency and accuracy. But it's like I said earlier, just about everything ever built started with a drawing. Thanks Chaz, I wasn't sure if I liked it at first but I'm beginning to think it was the right call. David G.

Wow Kurt, you got quite a lot of work done in the last session! This is always one of my favorite parts of a build, when it all begins to finally come together. Everything looks great. BTW, I noticed that the battery looks like it has four cell caps. Is that an eight volt system or some type of German battery configuration? David G.

That's one beautiful long-roof! Clean, crisp and tidy, it could easily pass for 1:1. David G.

There are a lot of sweet looking cars there. Thanks for posting these photos, I really enjoyed them. David G.

Nice color combination and detail work. That came out sweet! David G.

Hello Everybody! I started painting the interior with Tamiya Light Gunmetal for the steel floor plate. I liked the "steel" seats so much that I wanted to get a photo. After several layers of masking and paint, here is the basic interior color scheme. The directions don't call out one specific color for the seats as there is no detailed representation of the interior in the comic. The colors suggested art "Flat Black, Flat Dark Blue, Flat Gray, even Deep Red or Burgundy." I chose to go with a dark red. Given that this is a comic book representation of the Batmobile, I wanted to add a little color but not go overboard with it. I think I'm happy with my choice, I'll know for sure once the figures are painted and seated. That's all for now folks! Thanks for taking the time to look and always feel free to offer a comment, question or opinion. David G.

Thank you Carl, I'm rather pleased with how it came out. David G.

Beautiful work Bill! It looks so delicate, dainty even. David G.

Wow! This one has been on quite an interesting journey. Nice work on it so far, I like the sneaky fender work. It should be great when it's finished. David G.

Wow! You don't see many of these, either as models or in the real world. Nice work on both of them, love the color. David G.

Nicely nestled! David G.

Hi Steve. Thanks for asking, unfortunately it's been almost exactly a year since I last worked on it. Every time I think it's about time to dust it off again, I get a great idea for another fun project, and well, I'm sure you know the rest. David G.

That is a tough call. What I usually do when facing such a dilemma is look at lots of online pictures of my subject. Doing that usually helps to inform my decision. David G.

Nice added touches with the detail bits. David G.

Nice looking Bug, good color choice. David G.

Nicely Done! Love the fat tires and added details. David G.
