長谷川模型:Mini cooper s countryman All 4

Mini cooper s country man All

上一篇老MINI 是長谷川最近的新模型,那麼countryman前幾年才又重新再販售的模型,記得版型是2012年款式的countryman。

由於不大會去選沒引擎的模型來製作,選擇這台純粹是模型店的盒損打折出售,才去選購的。看官方製作的樣品看起來不錯之外,剛好可以收集MINI從奧斯汀→路華→寶馬這三個世代重要的MINI。

The previous MINI model mentioned in the last article is Hasegawa's latest release.  So, Countryman is a model that has been recently reissued, and I recall that the model is based on the 2012 edition of the Countryman.

As I usually don't choose models without engines to build, I opted for this one purely because it was on sale at a discounted price due to damage to the box at the model store. Besides looking good in the official samples, it happens to be a great addition to my collection, covering the three important generations of MINI from Austin → Rover → BMW.

Mini Cooper 1997

長谷川模型近幾年來推出一系列1/24小車模型無論是老車還是新開模,其中老Mini令我心動。畢竟自田宮宣布停產老Mini而且從官網移除以來,這台長谷川模型車大概是真實車輛縮小尺寸做得最好的。

In recent years, Hasegawa Models has released a series of 1/24 scale car models, whether they are vintage or newly developed. Among them, the old Mini has captured my heart. After all, since Tamiya announced the discontinuation of the old Mini and removed it from their official website, it seems that the Hasegawa model car is probably the best in terms of accurately downsizing the real vehicle.

長谷川モデルはここ数年、1/24スケールの様々な車種のモデルを発売しており、その中で古いミニが私の心を掴んでいます。なにしろ、タミヤが古いミニの製造中止を発表し、公式ウェブサイトから削除されて以来、長谷川モデルの車はおそらく実車を最も精密に縮小したものでしょう。

關於這台車顏色沒有想太多就使用法拉利紅,未來要做場景還是得用搶眼的色澤襯托。本模型沒有做太多的修改,除了嘗試將引擎蓋切出來。

車內內裝採簡易型,ROVER(路華)設計的新內裝雖豪華但我還是選擇簡易版本。

關於這台長谷川只做半顆引擎的作法,我個人覺得要嘛全做出來,要嘛就別做,因為水箱罩蓋上去其實根本就看不太到裡面。結論:就算把引擎蓋切出來,重新做出整顆引擎,除非不做引擎蓋關節,不然其實還真的不太需要大費周章,因為整體還是看不到整顆引擎的全貌。

修改的部分:追加安全帶和喇叭水貼。安全帶目前慢慢能掌握用鐵線繞出安全鐵扣的模樣,以前做的忽大忽小,但是遲早還是交給3D列印,只有這樣品質好控管;喇叭水貼是測試項目,看起來還不錯,未來交給3D列印做出喇叭形狀上面再貼喇叭水貼,就更接近真實了。

Regarding the color of this car, I didn't give it much thought and chose Ferrari red. In the future, if I plan to create a scene, I might still need a contrasting color to make it stand out. This Hasegawa model hasn't undergone many modifications, except for attempting to cut out the engine hood.

1993年,梅賽狄斯朋馳推出了最強大的卡車,擁有超過500匹馬力,被稱為「EUROCAB」。並配備了一個較高的車頂艙;同一車頂艙配置下,還有兩種較低馬力的引擎版本,分別為380匹馬力和435匹馬力。與許多其他卡車製造商不同,大部分的組件,如變速器、引擎等,都是由梅賽狄斯自家生產。動力來源是一款V8渦輪增壓柴油引擎,排氣量為14.6升,最大輸出功率高達503匹馬力。儘管車頂較高,EUROCAB還配備了一個車頂擾流板,以降低燃油消耗至最低。並且當時的梅賽狄斯EUROCAB卡車都符合歐洲噪音和排放控制法規。

In 1993 the most powerful Mercedes-Benz Truck with more than 500 HP, was introduced as the « EUROCAB » with a raised roof cabin. Equipped with the same cab, two more engine versions are available, 380 HP and 435 HP. Contrary to many other truck manufacturers, most part assemblies such as transmission, engine etc. are produced by Mercedes in house. Power source is a V-8 turbo-charged Diesel engine, 14.6 l, with an output of  up to 503 HP. Despite of its high roof, the EUROCAB features a roof spoiler to reduce fuel costs to a minimum. All Mercedes Trucks are built according to the new European noise and emission control regulations. <Extract from the Italeri official website >

MERCEDES-BENZ SK EUROCAB 6x4

這台義大利的朋馳EUROCAB卡車稍微做了中度改裝,增加了品項有:頭燈與霧燈改良、前保險桿增加擋泥板、前輪換成385/65 R22.5寬胎、排氣管延長增加防燙版、第三軸的輪拱蓋換新版本並降低高度、車尾改裝、車體兩側增加護板、更換變速箱以及車門可開啟。原本的改裝設計裡包含了燈光效果,但是很不幸的,電線選的太細加上線路非常繁雜,單獨系統亮燈沒問題,全系統運作時發生異常導致線路燒斷以至於拍照就沒拍亮燈時的照片,非常可惜 MERCEDES-BENZ SK EUROCAB 6x4 

The Italeri MERCEDES-BENZ EUROCAB truck underwent some moderate modifications, including improvements to the headlights and fog lights, the addition of mud flaps on the front bumper, switching the front wheels to 385/65 R22.5 wide tires, extending the exhaust pipe with a heat shield, replacing and lowering the height of the wheel arch covers on the third axle, modifying the rear end, adding side protection panels to the vehicle body, replacing the gearbox and door open modification .

The original modification design included lighting effects, but unfortunately, the chosen wires were too thin, and the wiring was very complex. While individual lighting worked fine, there was an issue when the entire system was in operation, leading to an abnormality that caused the wires to burn out, resulting in the absence of photos taken with the lights on.  Extremely regrettable :(

Il camion MERCEDES-BENZ EUROCAB di Italeri ha subito alcune modifiche moderate, tra cui miglioramenti ai fari e ai fendinebbia, l'aggiunta di parafanghi anteriori, la sostituzione delle ruote anteriori con pneumatici larghi da 385/65 R22.5, l'estensione del tubo di scarico con uno schermo termico, la sostituzione e l'abbassamento dell'altezza dei copriruota sull'asse posteriore, la modifica della parte posteriore, l'aggiunta di pannelli di protezione laterali al corpo del veicolo, la sostituzione del cambio e la modifica delle porte.

Il progetto originale di modifica includeva effetti di illuminazione, ma sfortunatamente i fili scelti erano troppo sottili e il cablaggio era molto complesso. Sebbene l'illuminazione individuale funzionasse bene, c'era un problema quando l'intero sistema era in funzione, causando un'anomalia che faceva bruciare i fili, con conseguente assenza di foto scattate con le luci accese. Estremamente regrettabile :(

MAN TGX XXL V8

義大利模型卡車: MAN TGX XXL V8完成  [ MAN TGX XXL V8 project completed ]

上次挑戰DAF XF 安裝引擎和方向機旋轉結構,雖然主體已經完成,缺少了自製吊車用的吊臂,所以一直沒發表;這一次不但挑戰安裝引擎和方向機架構,多了可以將車頭前掀的功能。

[ Last time, I took on the challenge of installing the engine and steering mechanism on the DAF XF. While the main body has been completed, I was missing the self-made crane arm for the towing truck, so I haven't published it yet. This time, not only did I challenge myself to install the engine and steering mechanism, but also added the functionality of lifting the front of the truck. ]

MAN TGX XXL V8

DAF那台沒發表過,這次就拿這台模型來詮釋方向機如何自製,將其轉動。已經知道這種無引擎的模型產品是前輪沒有轉向的,花了將近1千1新台幣連轉向功能還被剝奪MAN TGX XXL V8 因此恢復方向機的方法就顯得重要。首先切開25A零件前輪剎車盤與工字樑斷開,由於是直面劈開,因此還需將假的轉向機構切除後鑽孔,再安裝自製的轉向零件去結合,如上圖,藍色箭頭是3mm空心棒用AB補土加強固定,上下兩片轉向零件用3D列印印出;由於自制轉向機構,前輪避震器切除重新製作新的避震器,轉向機構盡量接近如下圖設計方式。車頭的輪拱板移除,與車廂下層作黏合,製作後半段才要做黏合處理。

[ The DAF model that hasn't been published before will be used this time to demonstrate how the steering mechanism is self-made and how it rotates.  It is already known that this type of engine-less model product lacks steering capability in the front wheels. :(

Therefore, the method of restoring the steering mechanism becomes crucial. Firstly, cut open the 25A part, disconnecting the front brake disc and the I-beam. Since it is a straight split, the fake steering mechanism needs to be cut and drilled before installing the self-made steering components to combine them as shown in the picture. The blue arrow indicates the reinforcement using 3mm hollow rods and AB epoxy putty for fixing. The upper and lower steering components are 3D printed. Due to the homemade steering mechanism, the front shock absorbers are removed and new ones are remade to resemble the design shown in the image below as closely as possible. The front wheel arches are removed and bonded to the lower part of the cabin. The bonding process is done only for the latter half of the model. ]

剎車分泵可以不做,說實在平常看不到這個小零件。9A這個是轉向機構其中一環,這部份很好處理。由於沒引擎設計,因此需要5mm L角板製成了引擎固定的地方(引擎腳固定處)。

來到馬德里已經是傍晚時刻

傍晚的行程是去太陽門廣場,但是為什麼沒照相呢? 很簡單,太陽門廣場剛好正在大規模維修路面行人鋪磚設施,到處圍籬、工程車還有當地時間是下班時間,人超級多,根本不想動手拿相機拍照 :P

太陽門廣場有幾個地方要去採點:1. 西班牙0公里標界 2.熊抱樹市標  3. 還有最最最重要的是去英國宮百貨超市。

0公里標界:馬德里及整個西班牙所有公路的零公里起點處,最初16世紀時國王菲利浦二世設立。在西班牙條條大路通向太陽門。這塊地板磚"剛好"正在維護中,只留下地磚拆走後痕跡...(好可惜

熊抱樹市標:一隻熊抱著一棵樹的雕像, 由於馬德里(Madrid)這個詞近似於西班牙語裡的「媽媽快跑」(Madre id)。這要講述的是一個「孩子英勇救母」的故事。儘管無從考證這個故事的真實性,但許多人都被孩子的無畏勇敢與對母親深深的愛所打動,這個版本的「熊抱樹」故事在民間廣為流傳。然後這尊像也被圍籬圍起來... 拍不出啥好看的照片,乾脆買一塊冰箱磁鐵吸作紀念。

英國宮百貨:整個太陽門廣場或附近旁有三間英國宮百貨,這間是太陽門廣場旁很大的地標,很容易看見。西班牙的英國宮百貨 El Corte Inglés(有人翻譯為裁縫百貨)會發現以往認為百貨公司物價比較貴的觀念,在西班牙整個被顛覆!英國宮便宜又好逛,買了不少吃的東西帶回臺。

 

早上馬德里的行程早上主要是參觀世界著名的美術館:普拉多美術館。

普拉多美術館由於大門不給巴士停靠,所以在聖熱羅尼莫堂這一側下車,所以就拍教堂的照片,因為美術館側門說實在沒啥好拍;不過美術館側面看起來像大學學校,大家可以google地圖看網友放上來的美術館外觀。
