But I gotta say I'm pretty impressed with myself lately. I made the door panels for my General Mayhem Charger which most of you have seen already.

But I needed to make a spoiler for a car to make it look like a factory car, and its actually turning out really well!

Made a "3 piece" spoiler for this mustang I'm working on. Besides lacking a tiny bit of detail, especially for eyeballing some google images, I'm pretty happy with it.

Also, made some doors for a roadster body I got in on trade... again... pretty happy about that. Cant believe both went off without any major hiccups. I did cut the doors too short and had to simulate some "rot" but I think it adds character!

They were soo simple to make, bend the evergreen a little here, and a little there, a couple cuts and contours... but Im really impressed with myself.

I apologize if this is not in the correct subforum but I couldnt really figure out where to post it!

Cool! Joe Cavorley used to say that all you needed to do was break down a part into the basic shapes. Once you figured that out, scratch building was easy. And it's a matter of getting your confidence to try new things. Looks like you are doing fine!
