Stop-motion assembly: Revell's Type D race car in 1/32

Animation of Revell's plastic model kit "Auto Union Type D" with my little plastic fellow. I made some improvements by printing 3D parts with my ANYCUBIC Photon Mono X and green UV resin:
- spoked wheels
- radiator grill
- windshield
The car model is intirely painted with alclad II alu and silver. In addition I used Molotow's liquid chrome for some emphasizing and especially for the mirrors.Spokes and some cable simulations are made with material from Albion Alloys.
Music is composed by my good friend Erick Miotke.
The kit was a gift from my modelling friend Stefan Schacht.
It was a pleasure to work with it as a base and get the chance to improve some details with additional materials. Hope you like my little experiments...

You did fine work on this classic Revell (ex-Matchbox) kit of the Auto Union Type D racer. Those scratch built upgrades and 3D Printed parts are a big improvement. But with your skills, I suspect you could have still made this classic kit shine as an out-of-the-box build! My Like is in the 5.5Ks.

[@grzegorzkowalski5100]

With your breathtaking craftsmanship in this model you seem to have paid a beautiful tribute to the 1930s engineers and courageous drivers of the original. P.S. I was astonished to learn that Auto Union's racing cars labelled A to D were produced in Zwickau, which would later gain its notoriety / fame for Trabant cars.
