ADGZ - #1
Getting started. I built the wheels and I used toothpicks as axles. I built the subframe and got frustrated. The developer has made it very narrow, so my project of making interior and an open door cannot be achieved. I passed the axes through the subframe. I will adjust the length only at the end of the assembly. Now to the main body. |

I would cut out white part, reinforcing the rest with cardboard from the inside, same with the main body; but i guess for now it's better to leave it as is.

Thanks. I will try to do something different, this kit is very simple. Need a spice.

Hi Rafael. Believe it or not, this is the first time I looked in after your first post. I didn't realize that this thread was going to turn into a continuing saga of your builds. You do very nice work, showing solid improvement from model to model. I would recommend that you reinforce the larger panels of your models from the inside with cardboard. I like to use thin corrugated cardboard (like from a sneaker box), or beer coasters. These materials don't warp as much as other cardboard. Bend your scores slightly before gluing in your cardboard. I often lay a book on top as the glue dries to keep everything flat. I'm looking forward to seeing more builds from you.

I need to improve the reinforcements, really. I also need to use non-water based glues. About this topic. I use this one for practicality. I believe Meece is doing the same thing, all in one. And so who has the time and interest can see all the evolution in different models. |

what weight are you printing your models out at? I tend to use 160gsm paper for mine, i find that at that weight when I double it up it tends to be rigid enough to cut hatches etc out without buckling along withrockpaperscissor's idea , Sometimes things like gun barrels ore things that are rolled tight i reprint on 80 gsm paper to make it easier to roll.

But i will start do "double" some parts for more rigidity |

ADGZ - #2
Things have evolved a bit since yesterday After reading your comments, I decided to stick to the initial idea - but in a practical way. I cut only the upper half of one door; Scissors in the subframe to get space; I created a "cocoon" for the driver and assembled some more. And now it's the final stretch. This kit has few parts. Next update should be it ready. (for good or for bad) |

You are doing another great job Rafael.To reinforce surfaces I use cardboard from 0.5 to 2mm, but as Don says it tends to arch, more using PVA, I have verified that with UHU this does not happen because this adhesive has no water in its composition. Other boy to reinforce uses a method that consists of laminating in successive paper capacity until reaching the desired thickness, and achieves excellent results.

ADGZ - #3 the end
The beauty is ready. I liked the result. Thank you, meece. My next project will be done in secret. A Christmas special, inspired by a latter work of Don. |
