Barry Bogs' Ferdinand Magellan Car Interior Work Started May 9th, 2020 |
This car willl have a complete interior. Here you can see the initial work has started. |
"Here
is the latest from the BLW shops! The boys in the shop have been doing a
lot of head scratching these past two weeks, trying to figure out what
to use for the interior of the FM. I caught some of them reading
dollhouse magazines and catalogs, looking for 1:24 scale items, to
furnish the car. I had to give them some slack, as they have never had
to do an extensive interior on any model. There is very little real
information on the prototype car interior out there on the web, so the
boys are guessing at times, but I am pleased with what they have come up
with so far. Everything so far has had to be fabricated in the BLW
shops. The boys are working on some masters for tables, chairs, cabinets
and other appointments as we speak. Castings will be made and installed
for the next update. I am toying with the idea of having a waiter go up
and down the long isle on the left side of the car, picking up drinks in
the dining area and serving them to the guests in the sitting area at
the end of the car. " |
