MOC: Minifigure Scale CREATOR VW Beetle

[bamsham363]

i suprised myself with a new version, with opening bonnet (hood) and boot (trunk), and of course doors, as per prev models roof can be hard top or soft top and fits 2 mini fig in front and one in back, 2 at a push if roof is down, comments thoughts welcome, is a work in progress as would like to enhance the engine/roof etc etc

 The axes doubling as door hinges and mirrors is very clever. Do you know what colors it would be possible to build this in?

from what ive seen, most primary colours and of course black and white, th axes are limited to black or grey, but so far for my colour combinations all seem possible, but am working my way through this with more realistic beetle colour combinations as per my already built version (minus opening hood/trunk)
