Re: Blue Super Seven W.I.P.

You're right, it is a sea of blue, but it looks great! The weathering in the fenders is eloquently done. I really like the way it has come together. It is very clean and crisp. Well done. I cant wait to see it in person.

Re: Blue Super Seven W.I.P.

This is a truly inspiring build. Will it or any of it's brothers be at any shows in the future? I live close enough to the west coast that I'd be able - rather, be certain - to make a special trip if they are.

Re: Blue Super Seven W.I.P.

Looking at all this makes me giggle with glee. Hard to find words to describe this model when it leaves you speechless. Amazing doesnt even begin to start to describe this. A true masterpiece thats beyond modelling.

Re: Blue Super Seven W.I.P.

It's been a while since I've posted anything on this, not because nothing was getting done, but because nothing really looked much different. Lots of small parts, mostly hardware needed to be made, (and were), and still there are a lot more such items to be done too.
The most noticeable additions since the last time I shared anything on it are the windshield, license plate and the "doors", (yes, I know it's a stretch to call them doors...), are installed. Also the cover for the pedal assembly has been replaced with a carbon fiber unit. OK, OK, so it's really made of aluminum, (what else huh?), but... it has a raised reinforcing "X" on the top and it is decaled with SMS C/F... Still have to replace the mounting screws on it with bolts, and on several other parts too... Stay tuned, I am in the final stretch... - Mark

Re: Blue Super Seven W.I.P.

you know the ONLY thing I see wrong, and it really isn't wrong, is the rear wheels/tires seem a bit wrong for this car. just an asthetics issue, but when you do such a fine job making such an ugly car into such a beauty, I'm sure there are things that can be overlooked.

My skills are green with envy!
