Beautiful model !
So how did you take those great shots of a black model, I am thinking shadow
box and over exposure, if so by how much ? Any details would be appreciated
!
Cheers

Play Well.

This evening, I decided to challenge myself to build a small, yet cool • looking
fully motorized vehicle.  Turned out I had the extra challenge of
photographing a black model :)
My previous attempt at a very small and fully motorized vehicle was too • tall
for my taste, and the steering wasn't prototypical.  This attempt, is • shorter,
wider, and longer...ie, it's a not-quite-minifig scale sports car instead • of a
minifig scale truck/van.

The results: a 8x24x5 black sports car...it ended up looking like a • modified
Corvette, IMO (except that the engine is in the wrong place).  You can see • the
wires for steering (micromotor) and driving (geared motor) sticking out • the
driver side window.  These attach to longer wires from the controls:

Unfortunately, I was unable to fit seats inside, so I didn't bother with
opening doors and instead added some side details.  The rear hood does • open,
though.  Underneath is a big V8.  As always, please LMKWYT!
