Thanks for sharing dude, it's a simple but great idea.

In fact it´s very simple!, only two ez cuts, and I don´t need to glue the front, because the orginal attachment of the grid is maintened!!! Thanks for the comments Sinclair!

Incredible!!!!

Awesome work on decals, card graphics, everything very well done!!!

Congrats!!!

Awesome!!!

now it´s avaiable!!! click on the pic below!

IMHO this is one of the most beautiful castings of 2011, as much as the real one!!!

The inspiration:
Aston Martin One-77
V12 engine 750HP 7,3 liters
zero to 60 in less than 3,5s !!!
only 77 units were fabricated!


The cast:


The project:
I was very excited with this project, cause it would be very easy to open the cast, the front end is not riveted. Also the hood could be removed with only two straight cuts, no right angle cuts needed.

Cutting the hood:


Cutting the pack to make the hinge:


The plastic hinge:


Attaching the hinge to the cast:


Ready!!!
Missing some detailing and a powerfull engine!!! Suggestions are welcome!!!

This custom was based on the F355 GTS below:


Cutting the roof: No need to disassemble the chassis!


Removing the roof: (You can use this to make a hard top!)


The two casts, side by side, the original and the custom!

Outstanding work!

Blancpain is a Swiss luxury watchmaker, sponsor of the Lamborghini Super Trofeo category


My inspiration:


How you find it in the pegs:


- Decals made with transparent decal paper
- Rims painted black
- Rear wing from Porsche GT3 RS
- front # 7 intentionaly removed

The result:

coooool thanks for all!!!!!

The name is an allusion to the Prototype H24.
Batmobile 24h means that the Caped Crusader is protecting us anytime in our beloved Gotham City!

- Removed the white plastic chassis and swaped with a black one from a red Prototype.
- Removed the original tampoos with acethone
- Painted the front air intakes, side exhausts and tail lights
- "Bat-Decals" applied on the doors













This white base was from the black Prototype, it matched so well with the white rims!!!

Love the colors and all the details very nicely done!!!

Very creative!!!

Very nice! Looks like the real thing!

Also the ckh´s one is awesome!

Outstanding work!

One of the best customs i´ve ever seem on a Drag Bus!!!

Love the box too!!

Very nice work!

Love the side mirrors! How did you make that?
