[MOC] Modular DCEU Batmobile

[FTG Prime]

Hello everyone,

I am super excited to finally show you my new and improved DCEU Batmobile.

If you remember, last year i built a BvS Batmobile and i actually sold a lot of it's instructions, first of all i want to thank everyone who bought those ! However i felt like that model didn't make Patrick Tatopoulos amazing design justice. Thanks to the feedback that a lot of you guys provided i was able to improve upon those areas.

My main goals for this new model were:

-Being able to change looks from BvS to Jl.

-Be more stable on the wheel connections.

-Make the wheelguards more stable.

-Make it smaller.

-Use the "new" windshield piece.

Which led me to some intense months of building and testing.

But i am very pleased with the final result, not only is it in better scale compared to a minifg, but it's also more accurate in some areas. One of which i am very proud of are the wheel guards.

Here's the BvS configuration, and by far my favorite i think Patrick Tatopoulos and his team did a great job with the design so it was very important for me to get it right this time.
Fun fact: this was the first variant i did, i just modded it to change the look to how it appears on JL & SS.

So here's the SS configuration, it's basiclly the same as BvS except it doesn't have the turret on, 

So as you can see this is way smaller, and more accurate in scale with a minifig, i would say it's still waaaay too big to be in proper scale but it's definetly better than the previous one.

Here's the front of the thing.

It's slimmer and prettier than my previous model imo, not to mention that it is a bit more accurate, i must say that i rally like the use of the grey Galaxy guns to represent the flaps that the car has IRL. (sorry for the blurry pic there)

Here's the side of the thing,

I must admit that the previous model had more details on the side but i think this looks fine, especially considering this is way smaller. I want to point out that the orange piece does not exist on the actual JL car, i just added it for the sake of having different colors on it, the piece also exists on Dark Bluish Grey so that's a easy fix if you don't like it.

Here's the back of the thing,

By far one of my favorite views of the model, it may lack some of the details my previous model had but i like this a lot more, i think the wheel guards look really good in this angle too which just adds to the overall look.
 

I also tried some new techniques which help get the look right. And i also tried a new building instructions software which makes for some LEGO quality building experience which i hope you all enjoy. If you want to check it out you can click the image on my signature
 

I hope you all like this as much as i do, as always feedback is much apreciated !
