Been working on the door.
So when I have the shape I can then build up the floor sills and door opening.
Still lots to do.
First made frame at bottom


Then made up infill and filled moulding which I think must have held remote control equipment.



Bit more filler and built up around the window frame.





Will carry on tonight.

[puffyrs]

Door frame all most completed.
Just the window frame and the kevlar door card to go.


I'm pleased how it is going.

[puffyrs]

Still been working on the door. ( i'm getting there. )


How it should look.




Also started on the floor, this is the underside.


Now to start on the top many different layers.





Still ing.

Great work so far, the door looks really good

[puffyrs]

Still been working on the floor.
I'm building some parts in wood as i'm going to have it vacuum formed.
I will be building a vacuum forming table but I do not want to hold up the build so i'm sending it off for someone to do.
I have to take most of the details from the 1/24th model amd photos I have.

All this work needed... Wow !!
For sure it will bring a great result and make its effect, but sincerely I think I myself wouldn't try such a big scale model with so many corrections or scratch to do...
You've a lot of courage !!

[puffyrs]

Been waiting 3 weeks for this to be vacuum formed by someone on Ebay.
They took my master.


And got this back


But now I have it I'm pleased.
I can now carry on with the build.

[puffyrs]

Been working on the back panel.
Still lots to do.




Still having fun

[puffyrs]

Still working on the back panel and started on the rear frame.
Added a brass rod for strength in the frame.



still lots to do, but up to here so far.

[puffyrs]

Still working on the frame.
Lots of work will have to go into this.


Also made some weld marks, pleased how they came out.


Made a frame up to help with the other tubes.


Have to make sure all is ok before I glue it.

This is looking very impressive.
I need to save this thread somewhere for future reference, as I've got an 037 in my stash too.
And this is (in my opinion) a reference build!

Could you please explain how you made the weld seams? They look the business!

Hello
I will do some photos on how I did weld lines soon.
Very easy but remember this is on a 1/10th scale so may not work on all scales.
