BTTF diamond select DeLorean 1/15 upgrades/mods

Re: steveo's diamond select delorean 1/15 upgrades

any ideas on the grille at the driver side rear on the deck , some pics look like its 2 grilles with a bendy bar between them , other pics appear to show just the upper grille

thinking maybe its a shadow making me think theres a lower one?

Some serious attention to detail here has really helped me with my Aoshima/AMT 1/24 build. Just wanted to say thanks and def looking forward to more on this 1/15 beauty.

Be careful using reference of the original car as it sits today. Why in the world does the cable extend around the back wheel well on these 1/15 versions? Probably because they were using reference of the A car as it sits today. It drives me somewhat crazy. lol.

Very good, That's a monster of a project. I have one myself so I know the pain of it, it has very dense molded black plastic which makes it harder to cut up.

really ? i find it all cuts okay apart from the clear flux bands

try a dremel with a cutting disc , and a bare metal scriber for the smaller cuts

Compared to typical white styrene that many model kits are made of, the plastic of the DeLorean is quite tough in my opinion.

White stuff seems to sand down a bit easier.

Dear steveo and members

Thank you for inviting me to this RPF steveo.

The Delorean that you are making is just awesome ! !

And I think you take the best way to make details of Delorean based on its film.

Your teqnique is simply great.

My friends made the custom Delorean for me.

It lights up almost everything and some lights move by special made electric circuits.

You can see my delorean URL below.

2011 you can see some photos of Delorean on the article on 3/4 2011

and you can see the videos here.

Back to the Future

Back to The Future part 2 my special custom Delorean with music - YouTube

I hope that if possible , I would like to corraborate with steveo and make the best Delorean scale model ever.

Thank you.
