  1. I bin busy for some time now with 3D printed models

    Here you can see a bit of the progress from the AC Cobra from A to Z

    First the design,
    Printed the model,
    Use a nick an tick layer of primer and sand it until it is smooth.
    We do 1 layer of primer and sand it then a layer of primer again and sand it again until it is very smooth
    Then we put a layer of thin undercoating on it.
    Then we spray the paint, it is car paint what we use, it make the body way stronger and looks very real.
    After that we make some details on it like the rivets.
    And when that is done we put a nice clear coating over it.
    Now we are busy with in inside, making the nice soft carpets and the seats.


    More to come soon.

  3. Yes, we use metallic paint, we order thr code from a official cobra when we get the paints for it we spray it with a airbrush over it.
    Normal 2 or 3 layers and a clear coating.
