Do projects pick themselves? Duesenberg J
David G. replied to Eric Macleod's topic in WIP: Model Cars
It looks like you're going down the rabbit hole on this one and the hole just got deeper! I'll be along for the ride on this one. David G. -
It's a bummer about the A-pillars breaking, a frustrating but not insurmountable set-back. You have so many other fine details going on with this one that it would almost be an insult to the build not to open the doors. I wish you the best of luck with the repair work. David G.

Beautiful Work! I've done a few "Nostalgia Builds" myself. It sure is a great feeling to go back and complete and/or conquer those fondly remembered kits of our younger days, isn't it? David G.

Thank you Patrick, I'm glad you like it. Thanks Rusty, I appreciate your comment. If you're referring to this Batmobile... I already have one in my stash... with a Green Strawberry PE kit. But before I get on to that one, I have a Batpod I want to knock together first. Sort of a companion to the Tumbler. Also, there is an available lighting kit for the DOJ Batmobile. Hhmmm... Thanks, David G.

The level of detail you put in on this one and your engineering of the opening panels mind-blowing. David G.

Re-engineering Monograms Lotus Esprit...new update!
David G. replied to Dann Tier's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Spectacular work, as always! I truly enjoy watching your builds come together. David G. -
Just a couple of quick shots before I mount the airfoils. I did try to give the windows a gold tint with a quick spritz of acrylic gold paint. The paint did fog the windows just a bit but there wasn't going to be much of the interior visible through them anyway. I thought about installing some LED lighting for the interior but due to the construction style and my lack of skill assembling it, I didn't think I'd be able to close up all the light leaks anyway. And the foggy windows too... Thanks for looking and please feel free to leave a comment. David G.

The next update: OK, the side pieces are firmly and permanently affixed to the hull and I'm working on fitting the windshield panel in place. It looks like it will need some adjustment. I'm also trying out the new base for the photo diorama I'm working on. It's supposed to look like asphalt. It's a shame that all that work I put into the interior will never be seen again. The air boxes are installed after and are supposed to tuck under the pointy side piece with the shiny bit. No matter how I tried I couldn't get the boxes to slide up and under the side pieces, the just wouldn't go. I ended up grinding away just a pit of each side piece to allow for clearance. I don't know if I did something incorrectly or if it is a design flaw of the kit but it's in there now. That's it for now but I should be posting the final update soon. Thank you to those who are still following along. Please feel free to leave a comment. David G.

Thanks for posting the progress pics Glenn. Sometimes it's nice to "see under the hood" so to speak. David G.
