  1. Thanks Karl! This is Deal Wheels or CARtoons Style...
  2. That's for sure! I am still working on Blending them in...
  3. WILL HE FIT? Most of the body work is done and the body is primed. The basic chassis is set up and the interior is mocked-up. Let's see if his BiG head fits in the car... YEP!!! He fits in there just right!
  4. Thanks Bryan! Glad you like it...
  5. FITTIN' IT ALL IN... I cut the drivers legs and removed a little plastic, so I could bend them into better positions. The right leg is forward for the gas and the left will be back a bit. Here is the basic set up for the Interior. I like the little 911 Console, it looks like it was made for the car.
  6. PORSCHE 911 INTERIOR!!! I found most of the Interior Parts in the 911 kit. The Seats, Console, Shifter and hand brake are from the 911. The driver figure is from the parts box and the head is from a Deals Wheels Kit... I decided to use one Seat and it was a little too high. I ground off the base and it sets at the right height now. Nice Seats! Too bad, I might have to cut off the head rest the clear the drivers BiG Head!
  7. Thank you Zac! I took a few more photos and hope to post them later today...
  8. MAKE IT LOW!!! I traced the original Interior plate on to sheet plastic and cut it out... I cut the Dashboard off of the Interior Plate and then cut about 1/4" from the bottom of the Dash... I mounted the sectioned Dashboard on to the New Interior Plate. When fit in place this modification will lower the front of the Van about 1/4"!
  9. Yeah, I will probably need to open up some BiG Vents for the ROCKET Engines!!!
  10. TUCKIN' IT IN!!! I cut out 2 triangular pieces of sheet plastic to fit on the bottom-rear edge of the body. I glued them on an angle so that the edge of the body now Tucks Under... Next I cut a strip of plastic as wide as the rear pan. I glued the strip in place on the rear pan. What Next...?
  11. Thanks Bryan! More Coming Up...
  12. SMOOTHIN' THE REAR PAN... I decided to change the shape of the rear bottom of the ROCKET VAN Body to make the rear area nice and Tucked Under. First, I cut the lower section of the rear pan off. Here is the progress on Smoothin' the sides, before starting the Tuck... More Coming...
  13. Thanks for the kind words Scott! Glad you like it...
  14. FILLIN' THE WELLS!!! I started by trimming the Flares from the Wheel Wells with curved sissors... I block sanded the sides to get the area around the wheel wells flat. I was going to save the louvers but they got in the way... I traced the wheel well shapes on to sheet plastic and cut out the 2 pieces. I used Zap-A-Gap to hold them in place. Now lets see about making some smaller Wheel Wells...
  15. Thanks Ray! I almost have a few more photos ready...
  16. ROCKET VAN!!! Another New Cartoon Project! The Rocket Van Starts with a Deals Wheels VW Van, a Star Wars X-Wing Fighter and extra Deals Wheels Front Tires. Most of the modifications will be to fit small Front Tires in the rear and fit all of the tires inside the body. The New small rear tires are so much smaller than the BiG Hi-Bloatation Tires that they will replace... Progress Photos Coming Soon...
  17. VERY REALISTIC!!! Wonderful Details, Love this Wagon...
  18. BEAUTIFUL!!! This turned out GREAT Mark...
