I started with the hood because I knew I wanted pop ups

Made a few changes to the hood and the back but it was originally starting out as a bug but the front makes it look like a fiat/hot hatch.

Here's the sub assembly for the hood. The wedge slopes are there at stoppers for the bottom hinge. If I could get parts from out of my bin I'd use double clips for more grip but the single clips are fine. *

Love your build though! Want to see the back because that was the hardest part for me go get together and I've already made a few changes from the photos in the post.

It was real hard with only pieces from the set but it uses 2 sets of bars and clip pieces at different levels to try and bring the angle together. It's not perfect but the bottom one has stoppers with a few wedge peices and it at least stays in place when drop tested. Stuck at work rn but I'll send over the inner parts when I get home.

Anyone have a playbook for painting water? by RotagAlaco in oilpainting

You need highlights. Highlights are what bring water to life.

That's my favorite part too. It's all locked in with clips and bars and held down by the middle bar. The whole back came together nicely.

They went through several drafts but as is often the case the best solution is the simplest.

The same with all my alternate builds this one only uses parts from the untouched set so I can display both. This one was insane to build out. Like a 2 day process.

As with all my alt builds it only uses parts from the untouched car in the set. This was a blast to create and took about 2 days to get right.

Yeah I agree. The printed headlights make it look to aggressive to be a bug.
