Re: DCC- Aston martin amv8 vantage

The lines at the bumperlip are too long, and the sharp edge at the nose should stop earlier
Other than that, nice start, and nice choice of car too


If you can't stand the heat, don't walk into the fire...

Re: DCC- Aston martin amv8 vantage

You need to be very careful when using those prints I presume you are using. They should only be used to achieve some sort of main body shape as the prints are really off. When it comes to the rest - such as the lights - you will need to look up a lot of refference pictures.
I attached a pictures showing how big the headlights really are.
Do not find my comment discouraging though Modelling this car is a great challenge, but the fun certainly comes with it.

Keep it up

Nice choice of car, I thought about doing this one for about 2 seconds till i realized how off the blueprints were. Good luck and I hope to see a nice finished model of this one

Re: DCC- Aston martin amv8 vantage

I stand corrected. I did not realize that this was the concept - which in my opinion is ugly lol I will not comment on the accuracy then; whenever I see the concept it looks all wrong in my eyes, hehe. Nice modelling though.

Re: DCC- Aston martin amv8 vantage

t-shine: change of plans... I'm going to make as the production... I found some prints that could give me the base lines of the lights and other things: on the astonmartin web page... unfortunately, there's no top... but with the one I heve, it doesn't make much difference aeuhaeuhae!

Not a judge on accuracy here either, but looks like you have a great start fo a very sharp car. Keep at it.
