Well, it has been over a year since I have posted last. What can I say, time slips by.
Anyways, I started the body using foam insulation board glued together to carve the body from.
Front fender with driving lamps.
Foam pour
Carving the sides
This is as far as I got with the foam. I did not like the lines and I discovered that I am not a carver.
I scrapped this idea and worked on several others before going with
a wire frame body covered in stretched spandex.
I have built a wire frame for the body. This will be covered with spandex and glassed.
This was a stretch test.
Another view.
Resin impregnated cloth. It will deform slightly until backed with glass cloth.
Being held in a wire frame causes no deformities.
