[MOC] Caterham Seven - 10242 alternate build

[fastclemmy]

Hi everyone,

I'm happy to share with you my very first alternate build.

Previously, I tried to replicate Professor's awesome Porsche MOC, but the photo-based instructions was a bit hard for me to follow. So I decided to go on my own and make something else.

So I tried out a Caterham Seven. Various models seem to exist, but I got this 3D model as an example.

Without further ado, here come the pictures!

As this was very new to me, I kind of improvised. The key thing here was to be able to design the shape of the hood, so I came up with the following technique.

Viewed from above, it all fits well together:

The rest of the build went pretty well and I used almost all of the green parts of the original set to polish the details.

For the interior, I couldn't use the Mini's steering wheel as it was WAY too large:

Two side shots to finish this presentation:

I hope you enjoyed the ride! Feel free to give me your feedback!

Cheers!

I liked it! You should continue making builds like this! However, I think that the car would fit in Technic, not Special.
