Busy indeed :lol:

Finally hadc the time and motivation to do myself a set of wheels just for fun... they're just some tristy-spoke curvy faced things... Showwheels or Intro or something, not sure...

Tested the proportions on the mule Camaro

Didn't like the look so I did what anyone else would do, started a whole new build just for the wheels :lol:

Going for a showcar/butnout car look... Gonna model up a hirise blower setup and have it setup in curbside fashion, don't much wanna go making a fully custom chassy/engine/suspension etcetc, curbside's good enough for me :D

Did a mockup with those weird-spokes wire wheels in chrome on the Caprice kit

(Al that kit you sent me is being built in September for a radical lowrider build-off for a model magazine :D )

New wheels look bad ass dude, look better under the Camaro I reckon.

Hilux ideas sounds like something we all love the over the top burnout cars thumbsup

Got to love the glasshouse drool

I might draw up a few of the billet Showwheels and Intro sets and see which I like, but the wigglyspokes are winning so far :lol: Chrome will make em opo... and brakes, cant forget brakes!

I'm gonna try and get the glasshouse in its base colour today if I can be bothered... Doing silver as a base, then one colour of pattern and I wanna try a full coat of candy :D

Did this setup thingy tonight, just a few more bolts to go and then we'll see how many details don't print :lol: Kind of doing it as a 1pc curbside engine plate part where I can just chop a hole in a bonnet and poke this piece through. Nice and easy... Hopefully.
Decided to try modeling one of those weird Holley throttlebody/carb lookin thinks. Lord knows if I actually got it right :lol:

Shotgun scoop is next after the final bolts and details.

That a wild blower setup!! 3D drawing looks really impressive and complicated. You have some really nice projects in the pipe line. Can’t wait to see what you do with them all
