Something different.
A airbrush cover to avoid fumes and dust.
The cover is done so far.Only need to attach the front cover with the 3 holes in it.

I used clear acryl sheet which i bought a while ago for my display cabinet.I want ti use it as glas floors,but the models are too heavy.So i ordered some real glas in the mean time.
But what to do with the 5 acryl sheets?
So i decided to build a cover for my airbrush extraction system.
The frame is 3mm aluminum  and all is screwed together.
Will test them i a couple of days.

Some new tools arrived today.

The Dremel is hopefully helpful with the scratching parts of modeling.The others was used to create the gauges.

Dashboard is finished.Used some screws,dips and other stuff from the spare box.And finally with Wims decals the dashboard get some life.

The resin inside comes from me.Its easier to create the gauge with it.

 

The MFH 917?

Maybe after this,maybe not.Dont know right now.Wants to tackle a GP 500 bike.

The air intake are now filled with mesh.
The mirrors and the lights are in the make.
The rest is only adding some rivets,screws and the rear wing.
Thats all.
But i will show some pics of the complete car when its done.

Always motivating to read a new comment.

I started this at October 2017 and wanted to build two versions.
At the end its only one.Sorry!

Now i got another unique model in my display cabinet which made me very proud.
Maybe i find some time tomorrow and make some better pics.
