The modified model car thread - pics

Just astounding as always. That Corvette is wonderful.

Do the cars have to sealed once they have been dipped or is that lovely deep shine
how it comes from the dipping?.

[MCWS]

They all need to be sealed with varnish. The Corvette hase an extra layer of Apple Candy Red on top of that.

I've been very busy with rallies but some finished models coming soon.

Here is a nice brick with some minor changes. The colour for the rims and plates.

[MCWS]

Here is an AutoArt Porsche 911 / 930 Turbo in USA spec.

So, side markers in the front bumper, bigger rubber blocks on the rear bumper. Also chrome trim on front & rear window, 3 spoke steering wheel, one big exhaust tip and a brown interior.

That's a very black Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster, what have you done to that? Assume it's a model for a lucky owner.

[MCWS]

I got these two Lamborghini Murcielago diecasts and was asked to make a LP640 Roadster.



Well, lets strip them down and cut them up





Refitting the bumpers and side vents.





Yellow stitching in the interior

I have both of those models and cringe at the thought of cutting them up! That's a major piece of work and the finished model looks fantastic.

The roadster was a damaged model anyway...

Haha, that's not up to your usual standard. Why not finish it as an experiment to just try something out, pink maybe!

[MCWS]

The 911 from GT Spirit is made to look like a Porsche 911 RSR which is currently in Colorado.

First a small spoiler..



Chrome trim in matt black.



Different shade of white (and filled some holes).



Different seats.



Extra spot lights, different rear wheels, and a central exhaust and it ready to go!

It has been while since my last post. I had to organize a couple of classic car ray events.

Absolutely superb , as usual.
Please don't leave it so long before your next update !!!

[GPH]

Those Astons look amazing especially having to chop the roofs off. Great quality well done.

Couple of questions if I may.

Do you get specific wheels 3D printed?
What kind of paints are used on interior plastics for colour changes?
