Remember this?  mb2501.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=gt&action=display&thread=1405Well I've been still working away on it as you can see. Not to long ago I got one of those $70 "Make your own Resin kits" to play around with. So..... I made a mold and pored my first resin which is the 82 Wildcat. Which I'm happy with the direction I'm heading with this on going project. The Picture of my resin Wildcat is a Rough draft, I'm carving away on it and doing this and that to it. The front nose is cut off because....well....as you can see it was not level. But actually it helps to not have it there because it will give me an easier time working on the side pods.  Then when I'm ready I will just glue it back on....no biggie ;D When I feel I have the car looking correctly, I will do a final mold to produce the final product .  Tell me what you guys think.....I need some input |

Some measurements that may help. Wheelbase 108", front track 64", rear track 62", chassis width including sidepods 54", chassis hight at feul tank36". If you need a side photo I may have one, when I do not have a scale drawing I try to get at least the wheelbase and enlarge or reduce a good side shot as I can get to the measurement I need ( this is figured with a modelcalc scale calculator , select a scale , enter the actual length and press scale size and it gives you the scale measurement ).

Thanks lance for the Specs I really needed those....Its hard to scale out the pictures that I have. But To be honest I did a lot of eye balling on this one.  I have a lot of work to do, most of them are off, some close and some are horrible. So thats why Im starting over. Thats what I get for rushing and not doing my homework properly.  I learned once agian....I think? I'll get it right next time. |
