CITROËN 15/6 "Coupé" 1/8


Recommended Posts

 

 

Thanks Poul, but...

 

Firstly I have to thanks everybody! Why? 655 posts, 2621 "like"! Over four time of thanks on my posts...

 

Today, some tiny things, I do like tiny things! The multiple switch. I don't chose the more simple,

but the other is the same on the 2CV! Not really class... 

Of course, very difficult to take pictures in situ, but be patient!

Easier, with wiper's motor on background...

Amazing stuff, Dan. So much tiny details that look as if they are the 1:1 parts. 

Can you tell a bit more about the front window opening mechanism? Anything on how you made that.

I can't tell you anything, but I can show you!
Hope it will help you...

Hello Dan
I enjoy myself as I do every time... to the point of viewing your entire subject again.
When I look at one of your photos, my brain doesn't say "it's well done" but it gets hotter and hotter to tell me "how should I do this"?
And that's great!!!!

Keep on regaling us  ;o)

I do think that Manu is right. Of course you (Dan) are privy to all the shortcomings that you noticed during the build. The casual (or not) observer, seeing your model, will not notice anything like that.

Wonderful!  Not only a fantasic model (at times, it looked like you were posting photos of a real car!), but one of a beautiful vehicle!  I'm not sure I'd be brave enough to attempt this in 1:8, but I intend to follow this closely at some point in the future in 1:24.  Thank you for documenting everything, it has been extremely interesting to follow.
