Progress : Red Power; Berlin Wall Ruïns ... Revell Trabbant

Here she is, my in progress thingy since a long time, originally a quickie, but with the paint problems, I decided to make it in a more or less believable state!

Here it is...

wow, you did a nice job in this, the weathering's really convincing.
I've been looking for ages for one of these, especially the rs 800 version revell made. You must have had the last one :)

Looks like a promising project with this evil kit, great weathering

This brings back the memories :D
Nice weathering.

Aw :( Poor car.

Looks like a promising project with this evil kit, great weathering

:iagree:

Great weathering job and remember: The trabant can't rust! :D

Oli, I must admit. When you mess things up you do it in style. It looks as if a Berlin Wall brick fell on it.
Please stay away from my models ok?

Great weathering job and remember: The trabant can't rust! :D

:iagree: - great job!

If I remember correctly, Trabants just dissolve in a glass of warm water... :)

Hey Oli.
Very good job :thumbsup:
You really improved your skills during my absence. I certainly lost a lot of other interesting projects.

thread revival...that looks wicked.

how close is it to finished now? or is that it finished - if so...any spare parts?

Actually Oli promised to have it finished today. We'll see ;)

Erm, good thing this thread is up, it's mostly done today.

It will get a spray-over with some dirty smoke and shit from the airbrush tomorrow to cover up some oops mistakes.

As for you ales, when's your supposedly next model? By end 2009 soonest? :)))



pics will be coming when I get my hands on a digicam (by the end of the week)

Oli

I like the weathering effects on it.

Looks so shitty!! Great job on that!! Is this a diecast? I have never seen this kit before. Keep up the awsome progress!

Naw, a model, made in 1990,by revell Germany. there's also a rallye version of it.

Probably the worst I ve ever built.

Mold line galore, sink holes everywhere, nothing fitting, everything flimsy, no rubber tyres (the rims and tyres are one plastic piece! )

hte lights are true crap, the detail is hiddeous.


But I love it!


difficult kit, even more difficult to find it, but such a monument of a car, I couldn't not have it!


Oli

...there's also a rallye version of it.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: I know it's true, but it's jsut so funny to see it written!
Sorry, bit of Eastern European reminiscence there for a moment :biggrin:

Incredible how it looks real :eek: :eek:
Continue like this Oli, you're on the good way :bigthumb:

I've seen him messing it up and now he has turned the Trabbi into an ugly and rusty masterpiece! Keep up the bad work!

Ciao!

:iagree: :1: :1:

If i had seen this earlier, i could have send you an article of a modeling magazine, which shows all corrections this kit needs to look like the real one.

Very nice work,Oli! :bigthumb: Great weathering :grinyes:

super detailed - i love it ! :wink:
