Finished Most Certain T Rod

[modelcarfan]

Finally...

60 hours of scratch built work !

The only parts that are not of scratch are wheels and tires, engine base ( directily from Ferd Phony Car salvage), Biker tires from salvage parts for t rod 1/25, Headlight bezels directily from a large scale 1/16 of 32 ford.

The rest of these parts are entirely scratch built with parts from plastruct.



















This is my very first serious work doing all the scratch builds and whew its amazing experience. I thank you all member for many of tips and ideas to help me create an unique work. Thank you all !!!!

Fantastic job Brian you really captured the UT as a Toon ! Congrats on your first and hopefully not last scratchbuild !

[modelcarfan]

Thanks Bob! It was my goal to make it a cartoon like version. I am glad it came out great. Thanks again!

Last scratch build?... its a start for me

Hey man... Don't you dare NOT scratchbuild anymore 😡.....😄😄

You definitely have the 'scratch' Brian 👍
so just admit it, and have fun with it! 🤗

I simply couldn't help myself Brian..... those lights with the grill you made, really helped make it a -Toon 👀😊

Wasn't sure if my tablet would do it, but it did😊

Hee Hee Thanks, John. actually made many other parts a bit different than original to create a cartoon like version. You could take a look at the Hilborn engine pipes which is kind of heavy thick than the original... the exhaust pipes thicker than original too.. Tires are of Deals Wheels kit pieces. The body is not slant tall, but a little shorter and wider which was a secret way to make it look different.

after such a lot went on for me in my journey... a lot of changes going on and pulls me away from doing my time on building models. I took the break to look through some of old pictures of all models I made. I came across this unc t and I seen some few I have not posted in because I was busy making pictures and pulling it up here. So I took the time to do editing and cleaning the pics... and posted here. Some pictures I have not posted here and thought I would share some.

enjoy.




Took this picture and realized the plates was not made so I made a plate after ... then add more new pictures
























hope this cheers up your day. Be well and stay safe

Certainly cheered up my day! It's the mark of a well done toon car that there can be no doubt what it was before it got tooned, and this absolutely nails it!

Absolutely toontastic!  WOW!

[TooOld]

Great photos Brian and I love absolutely that backdrop you've made !  

I also love that we have two models of a "Tooned" Uncertain T being displayed at the same time , just shows that there are sooo many different ways to toon-up a model .  Great stuff .

Yes, we all need some inspiration, not only to show our work but to give them some vibes to help them get their ideas moving.

We all need some thing that stimulates us and move on into some new challenges.
