1/160th scale (N Gauge) Jaguar XKE

Recommended Posts

Here is my latest completion - a 3-D printed N Scale (1/160) Jaguar XKE.

This replicates a car owned by my brother Bob - who is also into RC airplanes and plastic model building. You'll see that he has his own Hobby Shop on my layout.

Painting the details on a black vehicle was a little challenging. I usually use the shadows from the raised details to know where they are - but on a black car, the shadows are non-existent!

I also included photos of the actual 1:1 scale car, and a shot with other 3-D printed cars on my layout.

Thanks for looking!

Bart

That’s really nice at such a small scale. Are the other cars and trucks in the photos also 3 D printed?

Yes, all of the cars in the group photo were all 3-D prints, and were all painted by me.

Thanks!

My magnifier light helps a lot, too.

Glad that my hands are still steady, too!
