spacewolf Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Like most of us, there are far too many kits & projects than there is time so one has to go with the feeling when the Muse inspires. I found this wonderful image on a google search. It's a variation on steampunk called deieselpunk which is described as.. " a genre similar to steampunk that combines the aesthetics of the diesel-based technology of the interwar period through to the 1950s with retro-futuristic technology and postmodern sensibilities."... In other words, let your imagination make up weird, wacky, wonderful things !!... There are neat things.. silly things..... some neat kits... and some stunning builds on line.. So, the muse bit HARD... and I'm off to the races with this. Though the markings that the artist Matt Savage http://mattsav-concept.blogspot.ca/ put on it are British, to me it looks more German in design, so this will be built as the dieselpunk version of the WW II BF-109... Ya, I know... I'm doin' it again !! CANicoll, ShelbyGT500, chukw and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacewolf Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 So, I did a bit of rough sketching... And started cutting plastic.... No hard and fast drawings, had no real idea how to go about it but started with a base, a couple of formers and side parts..

LSP_K2 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Your "rough sketches" look pretty darned good to me (and I'm not easily impressed). spacewolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
