Re: Ford Capri Gr.5 "Open Version " in progress

How did you make the air hose? Is it a drinking straw? This thing looks incredible! The wires seem about right to me, but it's hard to tell. Just fantastic!

@ willimo

...the air hose is a thin wire over a round bar wound, and over it a Bare metal foil adhesive.
I hope my English is understandable!!!!

I should have figured you'd have a more elegant solution. Great idea, and don't worry about your English, it is perfect.

Re: Ford Capri Gr.5 "Open Version " in progress

Never ceases to amaze. What I like about this thread, almost as much as I like this model itself, are the miniature sawhorses holding it up during the build. Like the real thing! Perfect fidelity!

Re: Ford Capri Gr.5 "Open Version " in progress

I'm sure the most difficult part of the work is to make this real thing look like a 1/24 model...

I just hope I'll have the opportunity to see it "for real" one day!
