Re: Topless Trio: 348ts

So since I finally decided to do the spider (not the TS) I need to do some works on seats which're different to leave free space for the capote (I guess): some refs of the real stuff:




so I start to work mine with stirene and mill, some kilos of putty and a lot of patience:




I add also some side reinforcement in the seat and back's pokets, maded trought 0.1mm stirene




finished, cursed and primed


also the headrest is really different: narrowed, fat and wit a whole different desig: I done with several thin layers of putty (normal, Tamy) than I cutted it and smoothed down.



At least I preshaded with marron the grooves and sprayed 4 layer of valleyo sand (opaque). You'll achieve a convincing leather appeal just polishing a bit with a tissue (thanks to my friend Ricky for this stunning tip)
