Thanks to Randy Nuebert of VooDoo FX’s I have everything I need to finish lighting this Star Destroyer.
I got a lot more fiber optics installed yesterday. Today I’m doing more top and bottom and installing the engine lights.
The 1/32 Cooper is coming along well. I did a test body and painted it Royale blue as I’m getting a bit tired of BRG. This tells me how much work still needs to be done on the body master before I make the final mold for production.
I worked on the test frame some more. As it turns out the front axles are not dead center of the body openings but rather forward of center and closer to the nose. I moved it for an accurate fit.
All it needs is the intake cover for the carburetors. And I’m good to go. The body came out great.
John Warren from New Zealand I made contact with again and this fine modeler makes tires, rims, and inserts for 1/32 scale slot cars. He has exactly the parts I need to make my cars accurate to the full sized car. He is currently making the parts for me. Here’s some picture of his work and parts he makes. He also is building a Cooper seen here with the blank body and the accurate parts and tires he makes.
Still I have the windscreen, intake cover and exhaust to make. All these parts will be molded in silicone and produced in resin. Lots to do still.
