1930 Bugatti Type 50
by nuno22467 Tue 19 Mar 2019, 3:40 pm
Hello Nice People :)
Now a drift into the Belle Époque... I think that's one of the most beautiful cars ever designed, and although its 80+ years old it has somehow a modern look. As for the kit, an old fiddly Heller, far from perfect but feasible with extra patience. The engine is there, but either I had the hood opened or shut. I'd miss the beatiful blue/black lines...
Thanks for watching & Cheers!
Nuno.

Nice job Nuno. It is indeed a beautiful car. One of my favourites.
I built this kit a while back, only I turned it into a hot rod.

A beautiful Bugatti in it's classic colors. It's inspiring me to build the one I have in my stash. I've built a few of Heller's old classics and agree they could have done better with opening hoods.
Nice work.
Nice work.

Not many Bugatti kits in any scale. That's one of the nicest designs, although the rear trunk looks almost added on. Very sweet work!

Nice to see one of these built up. They are huge, for 1/24 scale.
