A Gallifreyan Cat Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Does anyone know of a rather good way to make wheel arches, specifically like on the back of a Ford F250, to go around a 6 stud diameter wheel? I have experimented with these, but either way I line them up the two-stud protruding bit ruins the curve. I plan on having the entire assembly stick out from the body by half a stud, using jumper plates. Thanks in advance! Quote
gamejutzu Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) SIX studded wheels? Never even heard of those. I was gonna say to use the curved piece on the stationed gun on the left here, but I don't think it would fit at all. Sorry friend, hopefully someone else can help out.

Arigomi Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 You could try looking at the instructions for 10248 Ferrari F40 for ideas. The rear wheels in particular might be closer to what you are looking for. Another possibility are these 1x6 mudguards but have them oriented so that the protruding lip is hidden on the inside. They might be small enough that any shaping won't deviate too much from your desired proportions. Quote
Whofan88 Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Have you thought about side mounting the 6 stud wide windshield elements used on the Mini Cooper? http://brickset.com/parts/4541190 http://brickset.com/sets/10242-1/Mini-Cooper-MK-VII Quote
