Thumbs up body progress

Looks fantastic Ozgur!

Keep the pictures coming please.
I am sure there are many of us who don't post a reply to all the threads we follow even though we find them very interesting.

Your work is beautiful and is very encouraging to the rest of us.

short answer is no; i did not use this kind of method before for my scratch builts
my initial plan is to use regular method (5 axis cnc milling of epoxy putty),
but i prefer to go with this method for sentimental reasons (tribute to traditional coach body builders)
regards
ozgur @ istanbul

ps: how your project going ?

Ozgur,
While a lot of us don't always post, we are here keeping our eyes and ears open and are constantly amazed at the quality of your work. For people like me, you are way beyond my expertise. I'd love to comment but I wouldn't know what to say....other than this is incredible....Ken

ps: how your project going ?
My project is a bit hold at the moment.

I'm waiting that snow melt down and outside temp is high enough for laminating. This because I ship that mold to a bit larger place, but there isn't heating so currently I can only wait.

I have made only one (front end) part as a test laminating because I broke plug when I pull that mold out. So I just test that there isn't that stuck poblem in real parts. I will add few pic to my callery about that front case/mold...

This is the first glass mold what I have ever build so if I start now I would do many thinks differently. And I also think that your way is much beter than my. Actually I think that I should start build a alu body after I get plug/buck ready just because laminating is a real messy job in a small carage.

I could write a whole book about "beginers problems in wonderfull world of resing". I have now a lot of first hand info about those problems ;-)

Beautiful! The lines look even more stunning highlighted by the reflectivenes of the gloss paint.

EDIT: One minor thing, Oz. It could be just the lens angle, but the headlight bucket area looks a bit big and the taper of the fender just before that flat frontal headlight area seems to flare ever so slightly out from the overall sweep of the fender's curve. Like I say - could be the camera angle, but the more I study the beautiful shape, that little detail seems to stand out.
