bekesizoltan Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Hi! I've started a new project, and I would like to build a Mercedes SLS, but after the bodywork I'm not as satisfied that I want to be. I would like to get your feedbacks about what you don't like on it.

Paul Boratko Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 I don't think there is anything "wrong" with it so to speak, it appears like the dimensions are right, it looks like it just needs some of the angles tweeked to be a little smoother. You could also change the sweeping curve of the rear window area to be slightly more slanted... Quote
Siegfried Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 I don't think there is anything "wrong" with it so to speak, it appears like the dimensions are right, it looks like it just needs some of the angles tweeked to be a little smoother. You could also change the sweeping curve of the rear window area to be slightly more slanted... I second that! The bonnet, for example, seems a tad to high and too short. But you seem to be on the right track. Carry on! Quote
Nazgarot Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 I agree, noting wrong. A tad to square and maybe a bit hollow, but seems like a good basis to work on. Good luck! -ED- Quote
Jim Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Nice model! Enlarge the wheelbase and shorten the back a little bit, so the proportions will match the SLS. Keep up the good work! Btw, since Mercedes licensed the Unimog model, maybe TLG will do an SLS flagship as well. That would be awesome! Quote
Jim Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 (edited) Last year I built this SLS: With all due respect to Bekesizoltan, but this is more like it. You can see right away it's an SLS. Very nice! Edited August 15, 2011 by Gekke Ted Quote
bekesizoltan Posted September 5, 2011 Author Posted September 5, 2011 Hi, I worked a little more on the body. I would like to get your feedbacks again about it. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0375.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0376.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0377.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0378.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0379.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0380.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0381.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0382.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0383.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0384.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0385.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0386.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/gonzalez/WIP/dsc_0387.jpg Cheers, Zoli bekesizoltan Quote
