Beautiful car, and an amazing idea. Congrats!
thanks for the idea, but I’m not really ‘attached’ to the footsoldier name, it was just one I’ve had online for years and never bothered to change!

I’m hoping the rest of it isn’t too far away now...

WOW Clemmons first I've seen of your thread
Footsoldier talk about the Low Spark of High Heeled Boys , awesomeness , you will need to trade your helmet for a crown fitted with color matching
Ruby's and Sapphires as the troops soon to hail this build King Of The Kingdom , Ns2 hits another over the fence into the next country with this one
really stirring or shaking things up with this martini , maybe just for fun a couple of skewered olives in vinyl for the bonnet .
to Flaunting Moby's new tail about and how much fun to come with the tell tale it will create !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for you Your Highness .

(better turn Nick and Anthony loose on matching helmet scheme)

Some quality painting been done here...
The petrol/gas flap cover was apparently the toughest of the lot, and you can see why!
It should all be put together next week

doors aren't completing as yet ?
the aft lower red and blue I would carry forward tapering down to meet aft side of front fender wheel opening and the aft top blue on her hips carry forward and taper dying into aft side of mirror component body . just a thought , the side body structure from this car to the original Moby being so different . Looking for flowing lines and colors .

Lol, or even in this case I'd say it's just as fun to stare at such a cocktail!

There are some bits to be added on the doors, and we didn't want to have it too cluttered with the placement of the mirror. The lines could have carried forward a bit more but as you mentioned with the vastly different side structure designs it wasn't as visually pleasing as the original. The rear end was the biggest challenge as the 935 doesn't really have a rear end at all and the design just ends, whereas the GT2 RS has a rather bulbous behind.

The design fell perfectly into place on the front bumper, in almost a "scary" way it seemed meant to be. Likewise on the rear fenders, the original Moby Dick has this negative cutout in the design, that eerily enough fits perfectly around the GT2 RS's carbon fiber intakes- again like it was meant to be!

Footsoldier , epic design and tremendous execution.

You now have the Sistine chapel of Porsche’s by having two modern day artisans create a masterpiece

I appreciate you sharing it w us.

enjoy it to the fullest
