Finished; another brick in the Wall; Revell trabant- kerrappy

[bigfrit]

Here she is, the most crappy kit in the world.

it's been finished for a week or two, but I didn't manage to get nice pics.

So here are some mediocre pics who don't show really well about the model, but hey, it's a nice diversion from cleanly built models!

On with the pics!










here s a little comparison pic of what was actually going on in germany at a time, carwise.

In the wall, and outside the wall!

Me first!!!

Outstanding

[Wheelin75r]

Cool!!
That flat tire is a nice detail.

[willimo]

Awesome, Oli! That's a really cool build and when you stick it with it's long lost Porsche cousin, you get a neat little history lesson.

[quadzero]

hey, thanks for the nice comments!

I did the flat tyre, it was made of plastic and molded in one part with the rim.
I sanded a piece out and puttied it to look like a flat one, that's about it, I guess!

Is the roof suposed to look like it's too big? Keep up the great work!

[Snooker]

You built a really nice model, it looks really good to me.

And you know what? The model and the real car are made of the same materiel

[kaho]

Isn't the left side head light supposed to have a hole in it when the headlight assembly is gone?

Now build the wall!

That's not entirely true, Oli. You melted the plastic first and then you pressed it on a hard surface like a table, to create the flat tire. After that you sanded and puttied. You have to tell the whole story


P.S. I love what you did with both cars!

Great replica of an East German "piece of art". Real cardboard-aesthetics!
What happened to the drivers door?
