Bugatti EB 110 Dress-up (Job Log)
Original
Redesign head lamp.
I decided on number 4.
I decided on number 4.
1st. Build the wall.
Sketch again.
Check again.
OK. I will confirm with this design.

Precision drawing on the bodyshell
Head lamp's cover. (but moving is not my plan)
It just cover.
It just cover.
Put it on...
Build another wall.
and, Fill it with epoxy putty.
This is winker (or Fog lamp)
Perforate and Cut off.
Perforate and Cut off.
The inner wall should not be thick, so I will use 0.3mm pla plate.
Glue it.
but, wrong angle.
Hm... I decided to redo, so removed it.
and, I filled in the arrow area because there was a hole.

First, surveying height of under nose part.
Build the support parts.
And, build a inner wall from the outside.
Than, cut off and clean up.
Parting line was too thick.
I couldn't even sand or scrape, so I had to cut it with a chisel.

Sanding done. (It took about 1 hours)
The wings also contracted so much that I had to sand hard.
And when I put it on the body, there was a lot of space, so I cut off the 'wing tip' of both ends , sanded it, and made a pla-plate and attached it
And when I put it on the body, there was a lot of space, so I cut off the 'wing tip' of both ends , sanded it, and made a pla-plate and attached it
Then trim the wing tip.
The shrinkage is so severe that it is sanded after coating with an instant adhesive.
Parts that didn't fit very well now fit well.
Marked arrow are not a good fit.
Marked arrow are not a good fit.
Using epoxy putty.
The front windshield fits well.
But, the rear windshield and cover don't feel good.
Hm... It still seems weird.
The rear windshield was bent, so I used hot water to fix it.
It was not molded properly.
Rather than filling and refining, I used it as a design element to create a shape.
There is no structure to hang on.
I made a chin.
Done
Side vents are blocked.
Measure the depth
Cut and prepare a pla-plate of appropriate length.
After bonding Top and Bottom plate firmly, prepare a plastic plate that will become a curved surface.
Roll a round bar to make a smooth bend.
Glue, Sanding... Done.
It doesn't fit well, so you have to bend it and sand the inside of both ends.
Perfect.
But, there is an empty space in the marked area.
It was covered with a thin plate.
Drill and trim.
I perforated the upper row in one row to give it a more modern feel. - Actually I'm getting a little bored now ;P
It also corrects the wrong mold of the tail light part.

I glued the front bumper to the body and filled it with plastic putty.
And cleaned the surface.
I'll take it apart again after it hardens.

The arch part still didn't fit, so I putty the front fender part.
Done.
Rough sketch.
This is front splitter.
Separated again for next work.
I will drill a hole in the marked place.
It is simpler to cut with a knife from the inside than to drill a hole from the outside.
I had to paint the marked areas in glossy black, so I sanded the surface, but the shrinkage was too much.
Finally painted the surfacer.
I like my modified design ;P
I corrected it by applying putty so that the edges in the marked areas continued smoothly.
I made an outer cover for the fog lights. (fruit packaging container)
Fog light and winker lenses were made by machining the spare parts included in the tank kit.
The refraction was so severe that I sanded it and polished(Tamiya Compound) it.
But, the refraction of the inner surface was also severe, so there was little improvement.
There is no detail on the side window, so I made simply inner frame.
White surfacer (gloss).
I made 'French Blue'
Base coloring and clear coat.
My signature ;P
After painting Tamiya 'Ghost Gray', masking the engine room paint
The windshield requires masking on the inside and outside.
Carbon pattern to front splitter.
Remove masking tape.
Paintbrush with Vallejo.
Greedy leveling the surface, the paint on the edge corners was erased.
In any case, since the surface of the roof is not smooth and needs correction, it will have to be repainted.
Compounding done.
I used 'Tamiya Panel Line Accent Color'
All the coloring work is done and ready to assemble.
Now only the straight build remains.
Now only the straight build remains.
Even though it was a new decal, it cracked when soaked in water.
There was a little floating part, so I fixed it with tongs.
I used two types of mesh.
Tail lamp / Side mirror
Inside done.
Outside done.
Fini
Finish

Spanjaardi full agree with Brandon and Vincent. great to see true model making 🙂 how to change a crappy kit into something really good.

MS KThanks Brandon, Vincent, Spanjaard.
In general, I express in detail-up only the parts that are easy visible area. ;D

JvWell done looks immaculate
Looks like the kit from hell
Not much thats done right
You have redone almost all on the car
Thanks for the warning
If I got a kit like that I don't think I could pull it of

MS KThanks Jv.
Although the kit quality is low, I think it's a worthwhile kit in itself and fun to modify. Because if the kit is so perfect, you don't even think about custom designs or modifications. 🙂

JvMs k yes your right but I don't think I got your skills yet
It did turn out a butiful model
But a bit much work for a beginner like me
13 March 2022, 14:14
MS KOh! I understood.
I don't consider myself an expert, but I think that skills will naturally become proficient over time. Have a nice hobby 😉

Album info
Heller's EB110 has the wrong body proportions, and the headlamps and intakes in various places are omitted.
Above all, it is dissatisfying that the parts do not fit well due to the overall quality deterioration.
and, I plan to change the design of the headlamp to my liking.
