ion motors thresher

[michelle]

i heavily modified a interior pan and dash and a chassis from my parts boxs to fit into this resin body i casted from a 1/24th scale plastic jada toy  the only parts from the toy i included in the build was the wheels and tires and the lower rear air channels and the lower front chin spoiler  i destroyed the soft silicone model i made when pulling the resin body out as i had never made a two part mold before only a once half mold  for making  cosplay outfit badges and emblems or extra detial parts for cosplay props i glued the two halves of the mold together and has a hole on the top for me to pour the resin into  and when i poped it apart to remove the body the mold  ripped and then some pieces got stuck in the  grille and other areaa so the detial was lost 
i painted the resin body with testors  extreme lacquer purple licious  and hand painted the interior  as it was not a uniform all one color intierior but the front seats were a different color from the rest of the interior same with the dash i had to use silver paint marker to paint the bumpers  and i used some mirrors from my parts boxs since those were missing from the original toy
