Progress report.Turbines are ready for details.Chassies need touch up before assembly.The lower right is the finished chassie.
 
This is the pre-shading of the first movie Batmobile.....A gloss mist coat of black will be applied so that the colors show through.
 
The first paint job failed.......I watched the movie with my cousin over the weekend,and noticed a way to do the paint job,which resulted in a nice effect.The black car is the second movie car,you can just make out the colors in the first movie car......

Cool to see someone try to achieve that beetle shell finish from the first movie. Very elusive!

Well actually I much prefer the Tumbler.

But the two designs are completely different aethetics.

Regardless, this looks like some great work. Keen to see the final results!
 
Absolutely gorgeous! You have to post a tutorial of how you did the beetle shell effect! I have an '89 Batmobile waiting for me to build up the nerve to take a crack at it!

For my latest attempt at this I painted the model with Rustoleum semi gloss black,then did the shading with Alclad prismatic colors,the blue to UV,the green.This left a very rough texture,so I shot two coats of Rustoleum flat clear to blend it all in.
