What was the first replica that you made using your
own parts?
There’s just so many cool cars and not enough kits; the first
would be Andre Simon’s DOCILE Evo II. I picked that one for the
challenge of reconstructing an entire front end in drag-spec from
scratch. It was a challenge! I loved making it and have since made
Mad Mike’s MADBUL and HUMBUL RX-7s.
What materials are you using to make the custom
pieces?
Anything I can find; I now have a pretty vast spare-bits box
to draw from. I might kit-bash with parts from other kits, or
make them from scratch using electrical wire, plastic tubes,
plastic sheet, aluminium welding rods even — just anything I
can make work.
