Barticus4 Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Hi Everyone just thought I would show you my latest creation...... Let me know what you think??? Ben..
FenderMender Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Looks great! I like the rust, deterioration and busted parts lying around. What did you use to make the metal corrugated fencing? That is very convincing. Goog job!!
Barticus4 Posted July 9, 2009 Author Posted July 9, 2009 Hi Fendermender! Thanks for the comments... The fencing is made from cardboard if you get a piece of fairly thick card board and pull of the thin side pieces it leaves you with a corrigated side. I then then just cut it to size then spray it silver then just rust it up with some paint on a sponge. Its cheap easy to do and give a really good effect. Thanks
TomA Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 A sad sight for a mighty mini indeed! Nice work on the weathering and the deflted tire looks very convincing. I also like the convincing job on the "tin" fence.
Barticus4 Posted July 13, 2009 Author Posted July 13, 2009 Hi Guys, I have decided to put this on ebay Have scratch built a diorama for it to sit on. Will be sad to see it go but can always do another one.... Check it out: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=110413062950 Thanks Ben....
FORDSVTPARTS Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 Good luck with the MoT on that little guy Too bad the Minilite's had to go to scrap with it
Foxer Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 I thought BMW was building them much better than that! .. weathering looks great!
Guest Gramps-xrds Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 Looks like it's gonna take a lot of work to get her back to running condition.
