Whilst I certainly agree about the orange, that mettalic effect on the front of both motors is pretty special too.

Thanks guys!

Sweet rides both of them!  :-*

Cheers Pocoloco.

I'm finding it difficult to get time to go hunt for hoover bits. I'm hoping over Christmas I'll get that sorted and maybe make a start.

The orange is lovely  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
Still not painted the wing mirrors. Sorry I have a thing about wing mirrors after getting mine broken the other day :'(

Ouch! I can paint it back on if you want? ;)

Wow! The highlights and reflections on the glass parts are amazing!  :-*

Thanks Joekano!

If I get a chance (or can be bothered ;)) I'll go back and do the same thing I did with my Ghostbuster board vans....




Next up, the first cab for Megacity Taxis. I don't think the reference is too obscure! ;) I struggled a bit with the text and check pattern. Anybody got any hints or tips how to do it better?

Brilliant, mate.
Love that colour scheme, it just HAS to be done, doesn't it...?
 :-* :-*

Having yours as reference is great as I know that I have definitely got one of those on its way.
 :D

Try again....you can build me one if you want? ;)

Thanks Colin!

Thanks very much everyone else too.

I've taken my hand to sculpting some wee robots. After seeing Cheetor and Mr Saturday's great 2000AD thread, I figured I needed some of my own. There is some robots out there I'll buy, but there's not much in the way of utility robots, so that's where I'll concentrate when i make my own.

This is the first guy. He's supposed to be some sort of street sweeper or house servant. I haven't decided yet. Hopefully I'll get better as I get used to sculpting such small details!

That is brilliant, mate.
Having finished the hoovering just this minute, I can bond with that fella.

You could also use him as a mine detector in sci-fi games.
