Kennyboy Posted November 15, 2013 Author Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) Thanks for the comments and interest guys!! Was busy today on this.....tried a new product that was recommended for what I do. Aves Apoxie Sculpt. Like using clay but hardens like concrete after 24 hours! LOVE IT so far. Had to go wider on the wheelwells, but will narrow them accordingly when dry. Edited November 15, 2013 by Kennyboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davysmodels Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Absolutely amazing. Great work. Just a thought, did you review a VW Karmann Ghia body as the donor body? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennyboy Posted November 16, 2013 Author Share Posted November 16, 2013 Absolutely amazing. Great work. Just a thought, did you review a VW Karmann Ghia body as the donor body? Thank you sir! Yup, it was just a little too short on length. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armornv Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 This(as well as your Ferrari) are just plain mind blowing. I have never seen either one of those cars before but as soon as I did, I wanted one! I want one of the scale version also lol! As a side note, if you like Aves, you should try Magic-Sculpt. Works the same way(two part putty). Mostly used for figure/miniature sculpting but also makes a great filler. Every one has their own opinion of what works better/best for them but I really like the stuff. Anyways, can't wait to see how this one turns out!

Kennyboy Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 Thanks again Richard! Was quite busy on this and the Ferrari this weekend!! Cut off the front end of the Maserati, used one of the casted front ends (that GerN sent me, thanks again Gerald!) cut the top section off where it met the hood and grafted it in. Started sculpting in the body lines on the sides and back, and did yet another complete wetsand! ......here are some pics!! (Sorry for the poor lighting! The flash would have been tooooo bright!! I'll get some better ones later today...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennyboy Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) I would just mention here that the Aurora/Monogram 3500 GT grille & nose are way off from the actual car. Slopes down too much, too oval. http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=1086640 Hope you'll agree Skip that it looks better now......put about 4 hours into cutting it off and redoing it.
