Cyberpunk city diorama

[yuumi2891103]

Thanks for the reference pics, Doctor.
I checked the web and know that the show was run here as 'Fashionable Detective' and yes, I loved this TV show. I love Diana Rigg.
The color of the Lotus is very close to what I want. I guess it was Zilcon Blue? I love this blue and that was very similar to the SPV in Capt. Scarlet.

When I built the model below, I texted to Mr. Martin Bower about the color of this vehicle. He kindly answered that the color was Zilcon Blue car spray.

I could not find the car spray then. So I mixed by myself a similar color.
Almost 16 years ago.

Very nice blue.
A light silver, light blue type of mix.

Thanks to your kind support, finally, I got the color tone and started to paint it. Before spray painting, I polished the body with 2000-grit water sandpaper.

Almost four coats.

I then sprayed the clear coat four times.

It looks bluish in pics but is a bit more grayish.
When it completely dries hard, I will polish it with a compound.

Thanks for looking!

Wow! You've really nailed the color and the finish is beautiful.

 

[JediMichael]

I agree and that this really turned out great.
A lot of people would be making a thread on just the cars build, but here you are making half the entite city.
Love it.

Beautiful ! Both exterior and interior

 

[stevielewis]

Great job on the paint!

 

[joberg]

Great results and the interior is looking very good Katsu-san

I thought you would be a fan of the Avengers, and the fact that it's title in Japan was "Fashionable Detective" makes it all the better! And yes, I am still in love with Dian Rigg!

I don't know the exact colour of Mrs. Peel's Lotus, but both the SPV and you're paint mix look very, very close, it suits your car very well!

Thank you so much, Builder-san!

Thank you, Michael-san, it's so fun and I am enjoying the whole thing.

The first movie I went to see on my own was 007 On Her Majesty's secret service. When I was 12. The bond girl was her. I was so excited and never forget it. The movie is my best of the 007 series.

Tail lights.

Front dashboard.
I think it would be better to add the steering wheel after I put the figures on.

I rebuilt the headlights.

Wireings done.

There must be some more accessories to add and Also I have to finish the wiring inside.

So far, this is it.

Thanks for looking!

Very nice work on the car. I like all that you have done with it.

 

[joberg]

It's quite the mighty car Katsu-san I hope it comes with some kind of roof knowing that, in this world, there's a lot of rainy days.

With one button push, the roof comes out from the rear hood.
Thanks!

That was a fun build. I may build another few car models.
With a roof.

[JediMichael]

Turned out great.
So how far is the whole entire piece at being done, do you think?

 

[SmilingOtter]

Amazing, as always! There are cars on the road right now that don't look nearly as good.

Thanks a lot, my friend!
joberg-san,
I just happened to talk to my wife this morning. She said how long will it take until it is finished. I said if I want to quit now, I can quit right now and if I want to go further, it will take a while. She said you must be having a lot of ideas for building this city. I said yes, I am.

So, I might want to say it is 1/2 or 2/3 way done. I want to build more vehicles and figures. Street lights on paved streets. How about police cars and cops on a crime scene? Also, I want to add some background buildings. Advertising blimp on a sky high.

On the other hand, I think I can build another starship or something simultaneously if I pleased. In fact, I have an idea to build.

Tom-san, thank you so much.
I always wanted to ride a big old American convertible car like Cadillac or Chevy. Now it will be impossible under these EV car circumstances. So I built a model car like I always wanted to ride.

Love the smooth and shiny paint job on the car. Great color as well.

Really looks convincing as a metallic car color finish

And the lighting really completes the look

 

[JediMichael]

We need to get Katsu a big warehouse so he can just keep on building, building and building.

Finally, the 3D printer introduction started! The latest model Kattsu Mark 1. No programming is required, and no troublesome operation. Just show it your sketch. The power source is alcohol (any kind) only.

Thanks!
