Blood Donor

Very productive day today, it was Fathers day here in OZ, my son said "what do you want to do?," Nothing was my answer, lets get some modeling done !!
I toyed around with this one and Adam sprayed his Viper.
Zed the chassis, cut the whole back out of it, then filled in the rear window, still got the sides to do yet, and then hinged the suicide doors and the rear door.
Then, something to go along with the "blood" theme, i separated the front and rear guards from the side board.
Next, i played around with the files, and before i knew it, (about 2 hours actually), i had something DIFFERENT!!





The left one is the back of the rear guard, right one is the back of the front guard, these will be painted a deep red and look like blood drops. smileyCACETROO_zps365bb43e


Will see what else comes to mind, watch this space.

Looking good DC can't wait for more

Lookin great so far DC!!

Thanks Doc and Skip, yeah, the fenders were something that just popped into my head from nowhere, so i ran with it, trying to get as many Blood ideas into it as i can.
Well. last night i spent 2 hours on 1 door trim, built it out to cover the hinges, bugger me, it would not close. it would hit the floor tub where i have channeled everything up.
So, i had to separate the trim and play around for what seemed like all night, here is where it all ended up.




now, to see if i can make the other one look the same, and work out an interior theme...... smileyCACETROO_zps365bb43e

Thanks Frank, not much of an update, but i have been working on the "blood tanks in the back, as this machine will run on the smell of a bloody rag!!

Thanks DocO, well , the week-end is here, that means paint!!

Sharp DC!! Thats sweet!!

Thanks bud, much appreciated, i did not want to give it all away to soon.

Thanks Frank, tonight i have made a dozen blood bags, which will be the fuel cells, so to speak.....

Wow DC thats one sweet truck love that paint!!

AWESOME - NO OTHER WORDS COULD EXPLPAIN IT - TOTALLY FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!!!

Thank you guys HEAPS!!, i have said before, this place has put the fun back into modeling.
Last night, for some reason i decided to add something to the paint, big mistake.
Could look OK, but not really feeling it though.





So, tonight, i sanded it back and started it again, here is a little sampler of what might or might not find it self elsewhere.
Needs flattening and more clear yet though.



Thanks again for the compliments guys.

I like the idea, Dale. I just think it's out of scale. looks more like running paint than blood. maybe smaller runs, if that makes sense.
