VDUB beetle dio

[kpisnuts]

HI all here's what I'm building as a competition on another place.


Can't tell you what's going to happen to the poor fella, think of the warspite dio, there will be at least a couple of explosions, I have a feeling none of you will know where this is going till the last couple of posts.
There was a little flash on the parts but the worst bit of the kit is the awful mold seams on all the wings.

Here's a teaser for you (it will be a major part of the dio)

Hi all off on hols tomorrow for a week so this will be my last post till next week, I just hope I've not gone and given the surprise away with the next pics. I'm sure some of you will guess what it is.

[kpisnuts]

Hi all well back off hols and here is the next update.

Hi all here is the next update.

Hi all here's the next update (it may not look very pretty I accidentally stood on the engine) I've tried to fix it up a bit (it doesn't really matter as it won't be seen in the dio and anyway no one will be looking at the beetle.







Couldn't resist trying the body on it.

Here is the next update, nearing the end now just need to finish the vdub then tie it all together.

[kpisnuts]

Hi all well the vdub is finished, you can start to see why it's a poor vdub

[Davethepitch]

What is it as I cannot understand as I am dumb.

[kpisnuts]

I'm hoping it will all become clear when it's on the dio

[Davethepitch]

Is it a creature or something.

[kpisnuts]

Hi all well it's done.




And some video of the effects.

[Davethepitch]

Please accept my stupidity but I am still non the wiser what is it about.
