Triumph TR4A


Recommended Posts

Posted

I decided part way through the build of this very crude kit to alter it into a car that had been involved in a hard front ender,so the left wing,hood and front valance were replicated in very thin gauge alloy sheet-about 0.2mm.These were then fitted in place of the originals and given a quick respray,once fitted I slid the shell into a mitre box to create the damage.The final creases were made using various modeling tools.

Ouch, that poor Triumph! :lol: Nigel, that's pretty cool, and 1/32 scale yet. It looks like a barn find with a slight bump :D . It's good to see these old Airfix models built. I've got several Bugeyes done, plus an Aston Martin DB5 and Mini to do.

Ouch is right! I had a front end kiss on the TR4A I had, but not nearly as bad. It looks like you hit a Nissan Cube .. :D

Nice job on that tiny thing ,, I have yet to do the one I have on the bench.

The Airfix cars can be hit or miss..The TR to be honest isn't the best,the shell looks good but the underside and engine OMG :lol:
