Very nice build and the paint really stands out!
-
That's a very nice build!

Brushpainting "chromepaint" usually doesn't work! You need to spray/airbrush it in VERY LIGHT coats to work. Also, Black for basecolour usually gives the chrome a somewhat to dark look. Better use a Bright blue or turquoise colour for base!

No, the clear canopy comes from a Die Cast of this car , as do the Wheels actually!

I finished this one 20 minutes ago. I'll redo it in the future that's why I left out the decals. The White "fuzz" on the body is from the cotton gloves I wore while putting it together.

My '57 baja Bug has been put on hold as I've been into a christmas challenge on a scandianvian model forum. We have from midnight dec 23 til midnight dec 30 to build a model kit of one's own choice. Here's what I've been into for the last few Days:
-
Unfortunately the Porsche-Engine that i got from my friend Marc doesn't look as good as I'd hoped forin the rear of my Baja Bug, so I'll stick to the VW-Engine this time. Don't worry though, I have several other VW-Projects where the Porsche-Engine can come in handy.....
-
A few pics:
-
Still not sure about what Engine to use, but I've kept building on the VW-Engine and also started constructing a rollbar.

Best looking T'rantula I've seen....ever!!
-
Very nice build!Looks just like the real deal!
-
Cool!!! I have one of these as well! I also had a 1:1 scale fourgonette about 20 years ago! Looking forward to see this one finished!
-
Really nice build, and my absolute favorite year 'Cuda!
-
WOW! That's one of the best Royal Rails I've ever seen built!
-
Thanks for all the kind words and encouragement, that's exactly what I need to keep going! This is actually not my cup of tea, as I prefere to build more "streetable" cars. But I kinda figured I had to do this to really fulfill my VW-collection....
-
Made a Little progress today.
-
Cool! looking forward to see more pic's in progress! my own Baja build has been pu on hold due to lotsa work right now.

I just had to do Another mockup after gluing the front and rear fenders to the Gunze body and this is just about what it'll look like when finished:
-
front end's been completed and I made fake turnsignal Arrows in the B-post:
-
More work done today, front axle/suspension almost finished:

The front Wheels are Fujimi Porsche 356 with a scratchbuilt outer lip to make them 17". The rear Wheels and tires...Just found them in my stash! Most likely from IMC Fun Bug 1/20th scale kit ??

More work done today:
