Veilside 400z update: the underside is done, now im chipping away at the glass and other details of the shell. It'll be getting a set of triple chrome BBS LM with color matched centercaps
First time entering anything in a show and Fine Scale Modeler Magazine wanted to take pictures of my mr2!!!
After many iterations, I finally got the URAS style bodykit pretty much perfectly fit to the thunderbird, so the file is now live on my cults3d page!
Bought a house with a parking lot in the back... ideas?
Veilside 400z update: this is the most detailed interior I've ever put together and I love it! I want to do more like this. The dash was about ten pieces, and the seats and door panels were about 5 parts each
URAS kitted thunderbird drift car update: the side skirts, mirrors, and hood vent were perfect on the first test print, needed to resize the spoiler and rear bumper so ill run another test print tomorrow. Gotta cut up the front bumper to see if that fits nicely
URAS thunderbird drift car update: revised spoiler and bumper fit, gotta thin out the rear bumper just a tad more and everything will be finished! File will be up on my cults page when it's finalized
Veilside 400z update: body is cleared and looking great. Now comes the fun part of figuring out what i want to do with the interior, there's a ton of parts for the interior in this kit
Veilside 400z update: masking the black was a pain in the ass, but the color is finally on it. Just have to let it cure a bit so I can mask the front end and paint the splitter black. The color I sprayed is an oem color, just not from nissan, any guesses which manufacturer used this color?
Veilside 400z update: masking the black wash pain in the ass, but the color is on it now. Just have to re mask the front to paint the splitter black once the base cures. The color is an oem color, just not from nissan, any guesses what manufacturer it's from?
Veilside 400z update: black basecoat applied, going to let it sit for a day or so before I mask it and put the final color on it
Next project, URAS drift s14, but a thunderbird instead. Current progress on modeling the kit so far in the next pictures. Skirts, rear bumper, wing, and hood vent done so far
Thoughts on the 3dmakerpro seal lite for scanning small objects?
Hey everyone! Im still searching for an extra parts tree "A" from the fujimi bmw z4 gt3, please message me if you have one!
End of the Cube
Veilside 400z update: it's in primer now, my gaps could be a little neater but overall im super happy with it so far
Taking a break from the veilside z to finish up the garson accord. Down to just needing decals and panel accents now!
Veilside 400z update: I dropped it while test fitting headlight lenses :(hopefully I can smooth it all out and still keep it looking good
Just picked up this poor b5 s4 from a friend. Was an auto in the process of being manual swapped when the owner tore the engine apart to put new seals in, got overwhelmed, and dumped it to my friend. Still need to decide if im actually going to put it together again or part it out
Veilside 400z update: side skirts attached, gaps good (hopefully). It's going to be a bit of a Mashup with a couple parts from the BlackBox 400z kit, mostly the rear diffuser/exhaust
Veilside 400z update: this is definitely not a transkit for beginners, got the front chopped off, gaps evened up, and Veilside front clip glued on. Now I need to let the glue cure so I can fill the panel gaps with putty to smooth them out and make new panel lines
Nice little find on the ground outside a gas station
Veilside 400z update: the easy part of blending the rear flares to the body is done, now comes the hard part. Cutting off the front end and grafting the veilside front on while keeping it looking nice
Need to reposition the suspension a bit to sit lower, but im really liking it
Veilside 400z update: got the flares glued on and the leading edges blended in, working on the more difficult top edges now
