Eric Macleod Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 I would have been very happy with the paper version. The work on that one alone is very impressive. I look forward to seeing what both of you come up with. Eric

Unfortunately taken then with a Motorola RazrV3, so not that high quality. The 3D-Modeling is ongoing, it´s quiet difficult to find appropriate pictures of the side, front, back and top view. So it ´s a lot of try and error. Expand WOW!!!....that is pretty sweet, bud!!!!

capricorn71 Posted March 30, 2020 Posted March 30, 2020 So this is the actual status of my 3D-Model. The main surfaces are done, all of the details of the outer shell, the interior and the engine compartment have to be done.

Expand Too high tech for me, lol, but thats looking FANTASTIC!!!...just before our lock-down, i managed to pick up alot more styrene, so now i can get back to this one!...bad news is that my computer is still broken, so i cant do anything with photos....i will just take them, and post them when i can.
David G. Posted March 31, 2020 Posted March 31, 2020 Somehow I missed this one but I'm glad I found it. Impressive work so far... as always. I'll be watching with great interest. David G.

capricorn71 Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) The front is getting better... some details are missing, but thats a thing to solve. @Dann: could you be so kind and measure the width of the seat? Mine are still burried in a moving box Edited April 8, 2020 by capricorn71 Picture upload
Funkychiken Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Hey Dann, just seen this, it's going to be such a cool build! good luck, I guess the same to Erich with his 3D printed version too!
capricorn71 Posted April 15, 2020 Posted April 15, 2020 Moving forward. The front is almost ready. There will be seven 3D printed parts. I still wonder how to do the glass parts...

Expand Thank you! I added more details to the front and started with the chassis. To have all parts ready will take some time, but I‘m confident to get it done.

Expand That is correct. I am doing a model of the first version, which is an evolution of the bb CW311 - a one of unveiled 1979. picture from Wikipedia of the first Imperator series. picture from bb Buchmann of the CW311 Both cars were styled and designed by Eberhard Schulz. I met him when he still ran Isdera in Leonberg-Warmbronn around 2005.
Dann Tier Posted May 5, 2020 Author Posted May 5, 2020 It musta been cool meeting him!!....these cars are freaking cool, and timeless looking!.....its also very cool that we are doing different ones....thanks for posting, Bud!!!

Expand Just my thoughts! I could not resist to start with the hood and the doors before the chassis is finished. But now I can be sure to get all parts done. The CAD system is tricky sometimes.

Expand Cool!! Nice to see the progress. Looks very promising - well done! So while I only have some stupid CAD files, you have a real model. I see it´s going to be really fine model.

Expand Thanks, Bud, but i had to redo the angle of the rear cowl...it was too sloped...hence the unrealistic height just above the taillights...its all fixed now.
