Harry P. Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Pretty cool.Two points... one, you have nothing connecting the front wheels to the steering wheel. Two... why is this not posted "Under Glass?"
bpletcher55 Posted May 28, 2016 Author Posted May 28, 2016 it,s not done yet , there are still LOTS of details to add , HARRY , Thanks guys for all the kind words ,
Dennis Lacy Posted May 28, 2016 Posted May 28, 2016 You're definitely doing the illustration justice. Looks great so far!
crazyrichard Posted May 28, 2016 Posted May 28, 2016 nice job ...looks very similair i do think for sand on the tyres a pigment powder would work so much better .. that could get in the creeses of the thread and not be shiny ..
Spex84 Posted May 28, 2016 Posted May 28, 2016 Wicked! I'm really, really liking the woody treatment. Great work on the woodgraining! Your model has all of the attitude of the illustration, and that's quite an achievement.
rmvw guy Posted May 29, 2016 Posted May 29, 2016 The wood part is very cool. Love the whole overall look and the surf boards. Nice. I will be looking for it under glass when it is finished. Some of mine never get finished technically.
slusher Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 Love the wood Blair. What did you put on the wood...?
