Heinkel Kabine WIP

Have to take a look at the model. These cars are so weird their cool ! A shop here in the U.S.A. Did a full restoration of one several years ago. So darn rare they had to make trips to Europe to find parts. Maybe I could model a hubcap or the license plate .

Cool project! Unfortunately my SU is too old.

But what a great subject!

I've thought about doing an Izetta one day.

(huh, did you know there is an anime named Izetta about a witch? I did not know that until just now)

Joke, you challenged yourself . This is a very cute car. Beautiful, intricate shape. I don't think the start of the modeling is right, but maybe after a lot of testing you will succeed

You are the master of organic modeling mate, I have seen your furniture models and they are amazing, have you ever done something like this?
How would you go about it?

This is how I would tackle it. Because the shapes have a complexity of compound curves, divide it into blocks, then add the details after the bulk shapes have been created.

And only do it in halves.

I separated the top of the roof because it appears it is canvas and does is not exactly curved to the drawing ideal.
