Guys, I am planning on starting my own Tumbler Batmobile, but I don't even know how to begin. I don't have any blueprints or anything. But I want to be as accurate as possible. Any help...?
What scale are you planning? I don't have much experience in scratch building, but a lot depends on the size and materials you what to work with.
Like, is this a full size, 1:1 working car? Or is it a 1:24 scale non-working model? I've also seen remote controlled versions made, I think there's one on these boards that's 1:6 scale.
At any rate, I'd search for other Tumbler build threads to start, maybe see what resources they used.
Doesn't anybody around here attempted this?
Many people build kit cars from scratch.
Many people are millionaires, doesn't mean everyone can be a millionaire! lol
I guess my perspective is this: if you want to build a tumbler, and you're asking a prop forum "where do I start?" that's a good indicator that you're not ready for this project. Want to know where to start? research. Use google. Scour the internet for reference materials. watch the DVDs.
If you haven't built ANYTHING mechanical, take a step back and start with something smaller. Build a go-kart. Buy a small kit car that comes with instructions and all the parts and build that. Then sell it and use the profits to go toward your tumbler.
For something like a car build, you kind of need to work up to it. But hey man, don't take my advice. what the heck do I know
It is the Everest of car builds and people climb Everest all the time.
