Black Mefistofele 1/12 wip

[maysula]

Hi

I´m trying to do the black version of the Mefistofele. Some modifications must be made, a higher rear bodywork, no airvent holes on the right side of the hood, two seats.

There are very few pictures of the black car  so a little "artistic freedom" must be used :-)

Thomas, you are doing such a great job on this model it is almost like Harry's spirit is projecting through you.  Your modeling reminds me of what Harry did.

Hi

More work on the engine, replaced the valve springs with steel thread, far from perfect but  it will do. Installed a bunch of sparkplugs and the ignition cables. The fuel lines are also replaced with a little  thinner one.

Brass color is Alclad polished brass, works fine.

Very nice work. It has a Harry-ish feel to it. 

[MAGIC MUFFLER]

Outstanding ..!!!! Sure grabbed my attention! Looking forward to seeing it finished.

[Jantrix]

Very impressive.

[maysula]

Not so much left to do before I will insall it in the car. I added plastic card on the watertanks ,painted with alclads copper and a little "soldering" with a chrome pen. Also scratched a support for the fuel lines.

More later
