January 30, 20215 yr This is the beginning of a larger project- basically a model of a model. This is to figure out if this scale is good for the eventual project to see if its big enough, etc., but its fun to see Hazzard Square in 3 dimensions even in this monotone form! To answer the inevitable question, its made from printed designes mounted to foam core and assembled with hot glue. (cat inserted for scale)
January 30, 20215 yr Even at this early stage, the model's looking great. Keep us posted with updates. It looks like it's a smaller scale compared to your model of Cooter's.

It looks like it's a smaller scale compared to your model of Cooter's. Much appreciated! Yes, this is half the scale of my garage and Boar's Nest models. Those were 1/2"=1' (1/24 in the familiar model kit scale). This mockup is 1/4"=1' (1/48 in model kit scale). M
January 30, 20215 yr I see that you can get a few Hazzard vehicles in 1:43 scale. Do you think they'd fit in?

January 31, 20215 yr I'm in awe. This is truly amazing! I can't reveal who February's fan of the month is going to be but he has a black cat that reminds me of the Sphinx looking over Egypt.

Besides being the Fan of the Month for January, I haven't had an African American cat since I was a child. ( I'm white...I can't say the " B" word! ) Edited January 31, 20215 yr by Hobie Harkins

February 1, 20215 yr My wife and I just watched the Eddie Murphy movie Norbert and this church is in it.....along with other buildings on the Hazzard set. What does the sign say by the front steps? I tried to enlarge it but couldn't tell.

February 1, 20215 yr That was one of my first recreations in the Signs of Hazzard thread. Here's the original:
February 1, 20215 yr That's excellent Hoss!! ( of course....why would I expect anything less from you?) Edited February 1, 20215 yr by Hobie Harkins
February 2, 20215 yr For some reason I was thinking it was buttermilk, not just milk. I bet 'ol Enos wouldn't have missed that sermon.

She's always "helping" me if I'm working on a project in the house. I look forward to seeing the completed Hazzard.
