My 1/18th scale model has arrived and I'll prep it for the scan tomorrow! Tuesday I'm meeting with my design team to scan the model. Man, I sound all classy n' sh$t! I mean, haven't you always wanted to say you have your own design team? I mean....a DESIGN TEAM MAAAAN!! "Hey Dave, we're all headed to Smilin' Pete's for a beer, you wanna come with?" "Gee fellas, I can't make it. I have to meet with my design team today at twelve hundred hours." Yep......so freakin' fetch!

Anywho, the model will be disassembled so it's just the body shell with windshield remain. I'll blast it to remove paint then prime. That antiglare flat primer is the best for 3D scanning. There's no light interference, from my understanding. The beauty of the 3D scanning is the two other parts of the car I need will be the dash and the windshield frame. Those can be done separately and be made from their own files.

Pics and an update Tuesday! Thank you for following along down this crazy build road!! If anything,
I promise it'll be entertaining with results that may surpass the Homer Simpson mobile!

Cheers
Dave
