New Barrel Car WiP
My new project, inspired by a custom barrel car I bought an eternity ago on €b@y, required barrels far bigger than the standard Lego 4x4x3.5 ones.
I searched the Web to find something suitable but had no luck and decided to start from scratch. Among the various approaches that I tried this one seems viable; however I thought I'd share it with you guys before I go on in case you have better ideas :-)
Second point is the color - the real barrels are made of oak, reddish brown just doesn't look right for it, and so I ended up with medium dark flesh (LDD: "medium nougat"). What do you think?
Feedback welcome!
