One Down One to Go

Small update , still need to weather the cupola , add the front siding , ivy up the trellis , place a planter box at the base of the trellis and about a half a million other things .
I need to use some indirect lighting to make the building visible yet still be able to see the spotlight lighting fx on the cupola .

The dive bar just got faincy.

 

[Heavens Eagle]

Still looking really good!!

This is basically the front facade in a nutshell , still tons to do , weathering etc.

I want a 1/35th scale Sportsfisherman , twin outboard in the diner/truckstop parking lot , side of the building ?.
Unfortunately there are no 1/35th scale Sportsfisherman boats or outboard motors [ cept for some small , Zodiak type light craft , small hp offerings ] .
I took an old Tamiya PBR [ built when it first came out , 1990/1991 ] and I am currently trying to make it a Robolo , Blackwatch Combi style fisher .
Maybe that or a center console .
The only glitch in the plan will be the hull . The PBR has a shallow draft hull whereas a Sportsfisher has a deep vee hull .
Artistic license scratch build # SB1835263749 amendment B .

Well here goes .......................

Somewhere there's a halftrack missing a bumper. I'd say license is well applied.

You are a very clever man! For you, we make very special Won-ton soup!
I just made a 1/72 Merc. 140 outboard. It never occurred to me to use a gear leg for the lower unit! Bravo!!

If you had access to a 3D printer there is a fellow who made a 3D model of a sports boat.

Like this one? No hill for a climber such as yourself!

 

[Cheyenne]

Merc's done , needs plumbing and hydraulics , weathering .
Hopefully they make reasonable renditions of outboards .

 

[Rhino]

That's a big pitch on the screws! She'll be as fast as a thief!

 

[Paulw]

I wouldn't complain, I don't know what an "early" out board would actually look like.

 

[Cheyenne]

LOL , yeah , I tried scratchin screws but they just didn't look right so I hit the spares boxes and found 1/72nd scale screws from an old Italeri S Boat that I made a water line build .

 

[jknaus]

WOW!!!! Nice.
