![]() So, I got a 370z body from FloydfanYodaman a bit back.
(tadaa) ![]() ![]() (For those of you who don't have a 370z, I painted that bit you see flat black) ![]() The 370z is nice, but I'm not a big fan of the whole "bulldog" look of the grill. So, I decided to change it up and try to make the Zele 370z. ![]() ![]() First things first, I cut off the grill. ![]() Saved the front clip holder for future use. ![]() Added some putty. ![]() And smoothed some of it out. ![]()

![]() Probably just that bright orange in those pictures.
Well, the original putty wasn't mixed too well, so it was a bit soft in places, so I scraped off that putty and added some new one. ![]() ![]()

![]() Did some more work.
Added a bit of styrene on the bottom for a lip. ![]() ![]() ![]() Puttied a bit up ![]() ![]() Fixed some more minor things ![]() ![]() Moar putty ![]() ![]() And then I realized if I kept the styrene there, then I'd mess up the placement for the lip. So I ripped it off. ![]() The putty wasn't really attached to it, so nothing too bad. ![]() ![]()

![]() The green stuff is Milliput putty. The tan stuff is Tamiya Light Curing putty.

![]() the second picture in your last post is remarkable imo. you really did it with those sharp, smooth curves. great job!
@SnoOpy, tamiya quick type is something you can learn with but you're better off using the one that comes in the purple case for a first trial (dries twice as long, gives longer curing and sculpting time)

![]() tnx guise.
Started the body lowering process and shaved down the rear clip holder a few mm. Can't do the front yet since the front clip holder isn't there. ![]() It's not 'hellaflush' but I'll work on fixing that. ![]() ![]() Started work on the side skirts. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I noticed the curvature of the bottom of the door was a bit off from scale so I decided to decrease the angle it jutted out at. Shaved it all off. ![]() Working on puttying it back. ![]()
