I'm glad to see so many people interested in this project. I promise to have this car finished before the end of Feb.

Definitely hot.......

Here's a bit more progress. I've slightly detailed the engine bay and interior. I added the driver's side safety net, racing harness, fuel cell, battery, racing gauges, shifter, and wheelie bars. I've also detailed the windows and tail lights. I still have to finish the intercooler, radiator, electric fan, turbo piping, rear spoiler w/supports, steering wheel, tachometer, and electronics. Here's the project @ 75% completion.

wow. awesome. how'd you do the rivets on the window?

[ShOrtyOC714]

DAMN! That is freakin bad a**! Keep up the great work!

BTW is the model heavy since it has so many things on it? Just curious.

You want to know how I did the rivets huh?
I used a sharpie for the black around the windows, after that dried I used my vice pin and drilled each hole/rivet on the inside of the windows. If I messed up I could erase the mistake by going over it with the sharpie again.
I guess I'm sharing all of my modeling secrets in this thread

As far as the weight, it's not as heavy as it may seem. It's still plastic you know.

Cool method! Never would have thought of it myself...

Have you thought of maybe drilling all the way through and plugging the hole with a piece of styrene rod painted silver?


Beautiful car, btw. I'm very inspired.
