customsrus Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) Here are a couple more older builds of mine. First we have Revell's micro-bus. Lower half of Monograms Testarossa molded to vw body. Chassis is the back half of the Testarossa grafted to the front half of the VW. Drive train is from the Tetarossa. It has a custom interior. Paint is Krylon gloss Teal and Ivory white. Up next is Tamiyas New Beetle mixed with Ferrari Mythos. Chassis is from the Mythos complete with engine. Modified wheel openings to fit frame. Interior is also from the Mythos modified to fit VW. Paint is Krylon Sun Yellow. Edited December 19, 2014 by customsrus
customsrus Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) A few more. I noticed that tail pipe is missing on this. Hope I can find it. Edited December 19, 2014 by customsrus
rmvw guy Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Nice work! I've never seen this done, very cool.
customsrus Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) Last ones. All in the Family Edited December 19, 2014 by customsrus
Roger U Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Cool. Nice looking models. Very creative ideas.
Burnout Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Wow, couple of really nice, refreshing builds. I especially like the mini bus. How did you apply the Krylon? I've only seen it in spray cans.
Marc @ MPC Motorsports Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 I remember seeing these in KC at the Heartland Nats a few years back. Killer builds!
Jordan 191 Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 On the beetle, it's cool how the lower windshield line turns into the top of the fender vent. The curve is even natural.
Dragline Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 I wish my brain worked like that!!! Those are both well executed and finely crafted. Bob
slusher Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 Excellent concepts. Very impressive work. love them both
hobbybobby Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 Very nice concepts, wonderfully implemented! On the beetle, it's cool how the lower windshield line turns into the top of the fender vent. The curve is even natural. Those were my thoughts!
DeeCee Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 These two builds are just awesome, great idea and spot on execution, this is what I call modeling.
customsrus Posted December 21, 2014 Author Posted December 21, 2014 Thanks everyone for your comments...
customsrus Posted December 21, 2014 Author Posted December 21, 2014 Wow, couple of really nice, refreshing builds. I especially like the mini bus. How did you apply the Krylon? I've only seen it in spray cans. Painted straight out of the can, then clear coated.
