Ramone says to take that issue up with Disney/Pixar, not The Webdude.
I just make the models.

Håkan,

To try to answer your son's questions as best as I can:

1. The models are in scale to each other based on height. (This is how I usually work with 'sets') Lightning may not fit in the trailer but he will look good sitting next to Mack.

2. Lightnings' trailer interior is one of those trans-dimensional areas, MUCH bigger on the inside than it is on the outside, like a womans purse. (Don't believe me? ask a woman to empty her purse and measure cubic area of the contents vs area in the purse. Scary stuff!

)

I may do a trailer upfit later with interior panels only and rear doors that open but it won't be until the major character models themselves are done.

I'd love to also see the major buildings from Radiator Springs: Flo's Diner, the Motel, Luigi's Tire Shop, or at least a smaller variant of these to use for display bases for the characters.

I'm definitely building these for my boy. He'll be all over them.

Now that sounds like a grand idea! That would be cool!
I think not only is Rick's plate full at the moment, he has a whole Thanksgiving dinner to eat!

Great to see you working on these again Rick!
I've got me printer now, just going to be a little bit on the ink.
I can't wait! So much to build and only one lifetime!

Well Russell looks like your build list is about to grow by one..:D

The 3D is done on Lightning. I'll do the patterning over the next few days as my schedule allows (12 hr work day doesn't give much....maybe 45 minutes in the morning if I'm lucky and the email isn't too cluttered)
