Welcome
TO MY WORKBENCH.
Okay here we go, I have to begin this build with the scariest part, cutting apart the body on the Interceptor. First the driver's door, for this I'm using concave carving blade and a #10 Exacto blade. By drawing the concave blade along the panel lines on the car body, the concave blade makes a nice channel to follow with the #10. I make shallow cuts over and over again with the #10 blade until the blade finely cuts through the body. With the door removed I use needle files to smooth and clean the edges on the body and the door. Next I cut the interior door panels out of the interior side wall pieces, neither the driver's nor passenger door have intact door panels in the film, these will be replaced with sheet styrene cut to resemble the naked door panels. Next up on the scary-crap-o-meter is the front end damage suffered when ramming the marauder's Landau in the opening chase scene. Again this was done using the concave carving blade, the #11, needle files, and a fine razor saw. The difficult part was trying to match the damage seen in the film to the model body.
