Bugatti re-build.

[PatW]

I built a Revell Bugatti EB 110 kit but it was bland. I wasn't impressed by the car itself let alone the kit, so coloured it up terribly! I've tried to get a kit by Suyata in 1/32 depicting an armoured sports car, but the kit is made in the Ukraine they are virtually impossible to buy now.

 

The multi coloured Bugatti..

 

A build found on the web of the Suyata kit..

 

And my attempt at an armoured version!

 

 

 

I don't have any armaments to add to it.

mmm, interesting

Death Race 2000 anyone?

[PatW]

Thanks Black Knight.

I like it, does anyone remember Dark Future? It was a games workshop car combat game, and there was some very cool novels written for it too.

You mean the one with David Carradine as Frankenstein and Sylvster Stalone as Machinegun Joe? 

I saw it in the movie when it came out (showing my age here! )

 

Oh - and the model is great! I've had my eyes one the Suyata kit as well, but the price!

Thanks guys for your input. The price of the 1/32 kit is about $21 if you can get one!

Or you can convert the Revellogram kit like Pat did.

Alternatively the Heller Airfix Bugatti EB110 would also do the trick.I

 

Much as I like the EB110 as it is, making a Death Race Type Vehicle from it was a bit of a fun thing to do with it.

Been toying with the idea of making the Juggernaut Truck from the movie using an AMT Peterbilt California Hauled as the basis.

Did the Duel Rig some time ago. A fun conversion and semi scratch build.
