Eshaver Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Worked on a few of these cars .........................Ed Shaver
Sam Cates Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 NICE! I have the Tamiya kit, stalled for now because I am waiting to finish my 1:1 so I know how to weather the model.
68BigBug Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 Very nice so far! What wheels are you going with?
Bartster Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 Cool color combo on a nice clean build. Love the pre-'67 bugs!
krazyglu Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 That is very cool looking, also wondering what wheels you will be choosing. I hope you nail that cal look stance, raked with fat meats on the back. All your paint work is very clean and shows you don't need all that detail. Keep it up.
LAone Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 man thats looking sweet. im tuned in i got a soft spot for the buggies..(as my son and daughter call it.)
TooOld Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 I agree ! Very nice engine , and overall looking great . Is this the Tamiya kit ? I've been wanting to build a bug for a while , but am undecided between Revell and Tamiya .
Guest Johnny Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 Really nice build! Looks right too! I worked on the 1:1 bugs for quite a few years so they hold a special place in my heart!
qmhd Posted April 11, 2012 Author Posted April 11, 2012 I hadn't enough free time to work on the beast but here are some pictures of the WIP
rmvw guy Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 I like the wheel choice. Very nice detail on engine and nice paint. Looks kind of like my 1:1.
sjordan Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Extremely nice work overall, though I think the metallic flake in the paint is too large at this scale.
Olskoolrodder Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 VERY nicely done,my friend,VERY-I' REALLY digging the engine detail
