57 B

Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic

One of my Cults followers Claude asked if I could model the Bugatti.

I have collected diecast Bugatti models and completed several Plastic Bugatti models earlier in my life.  I still have them in 2018 I was thrilled when my uncle visited the  and posted a few photos.

So it was easy to accept the offer to model the Atlantic. Then it was hard ...

Its missing the small details but modelers can add them once printed. 

happy modelling

well all done now and 3d printed .. do i need an engine??   yes ... 

Lincoln Zephyr 37 Project

 Lincoln Zephyr 1937 project 

Following Scoty Chops i became aware of the Lincoln Zephyr Car. I followed up some research and found Ford brought Lincoln out and Edsel conceived the idea and the car was designed by Eugene Turenne Gregorie.  Who worked at  Briggs Manufacturing Company

Its great researching who did what and how in  the early automotive industry-crosses paths with each other .

Incredible

My effort fusion 360 renders 

Modelling from pictures and refining shapes until it looks right 

3d printed model This one had no mechanical joining only glued , i dropped  this model in semi dry undercoat and was not happy. 

then went back to the drawing board to include better connectors such as bolts or screws.  

Lights are on the next version , its a long process

Freedom Roadster revisited

Soon to upload my Freedom Roadster which was my dream to make a model of before i started modelling.
I have, in this version made some upgrades using the current parts I have and some new designed.
Some views using Fusion 360, these shots are using the stl files, so there are some ripples due to rendering and file options,

Some photos of the model 3 d printed o n the Prusa i3 mk3
