WIP - Mini Cooper Racing Ver.07

[voda-kent]

Here is the design work of my Mini Cooper Racing Ver.07.



The original kit is Tamiya Morris Mini Cooper Racing.

I wanna make it look like modern Mini.
So I decide to make a new roll cage & modern racing seat, etc.

Filled the holes.


Interior heat insulation.
Cut a simular size of aluminum foil.

Use masking tape to measure the size.

Then put it on the aluminum foil.

Glue it on.

Not bad~ ^^"

One color tone of the engine...........

for a first rollcage that seems perfect to me.
You don't need to wonder about your skills, if you get no answer it's only cos' we can't leave feedback...

Thanks every body.^^"

The extinguisher.


I use Masking Tape to build this, but I don't know how to call it.
Can anyone tell me? Thanks alot.


I feel this is the most time expending part of this car.


But look so good, right?

The exhaust.



About this, I also don't know how to call it........

I'm enjoying this thread.
If I'm not wrong, I think they are called Window safety net and Kill switch.
