Frontpaged.

[syzygy87]

Wow, just like that? Thanks a lot! :)

[Milan]

I wouldn't say it was "just like that", as it is a beautiful model, and it sure took quite some to sculpt

[syzygy87]

Yes, sure it took a while ;) I meant that no one praised, no one commented and here suddenly - the frontpage ;)

[Jdrewg]

I love it! You captured it so well I get paranoid just looking at it!

[Bricky Steamboat]

Nee-Naw! Great effort. Will be buying the 'structions.

[weavil]

Great detail. Love the details. Just don't let the Blues Brother get a hold of it!

[Naijel]

Awesome work! Well done!!!

 

[BrickWild]

I'm speechless over the great detail!

[gyenesvi]

Great idea and nice implementation, I especially like the interior color!

Only thing I wonder is why you didn't use the fenders from the Camaro? It looks like a better fit in shape, and this grey color pops out too much for me.

[Aleh]

What a beauty! It smells from Americans 80-90x..

Fabulous! And these movable armrests - like a cherry on the top of the very tasty cake :) Great model!

[Jurss]

Well earned frontpaging.

[J.V.D.]

In the original car the fenders are silver, so in mine they are gray - they pretend to be silver :) I found it important to preserve this detail. However, in the original car, the silver stripe on the fenders is much more subtle - that's for sure :) considering the shape indeed these fenders from the Camaro would be better....

Wow, this is really cool. Aside from the obvious fact that it's in CHP livery, I'm getting some serious Blues Brothers vibes here.

Now how about building a Taxi version? ;-)
Plenty of yellow pieces available!

That's some idea - I haven't built a taxi yet :) But I think I would choose a different car to make the task more creative :) Any ideas?

I suggest a Chevrolet Caprice or Impala. ;-)

Great great job, you succeded in rendering the grille, the rear lights, the overall proportions...and lot of details. Well deserved front page!!! 

[firefabric]

Really nicely done! It's an unusual subject but that's a good thing, it doesn't have to be a supercar to look cool. Very clean build and looks pleasing, excellent work!

[syzygy87]

Thank you once again!

Yes, it's no supercar, but it's a pretty recognizable vehicle :) A lot of people build supercars, I rather look for cars that are less popular, but also attractive :)
