What happens if you rule to do something a minuscule bit different though? What if you want to develop some of your own customizations for your new model? The best way to think through the customizations you are considering is to draw them out. A sketch drawing will allow you to try out different looks before you actually begin the construction process that way you won't have to worry about something not working out and having to be cut loose or changed after it has already been attached to the model car.

What you will need to do this is just a pencil and a consolidate sheets of paper. The first thing you should do is to sketch a photo of the car as it would look fully assembled. Work from the pictures on the box or in the directions if necessary. This will give you a good base to work from. Once you begin drawing your different ideas for your changes you should do so down the margins of the paper nearest the part of the car to receive the new treatments. This will allow you to begin visualizing what those changes will look like once the car is finished. One thing to remember is that you should not just draw one convert for each section. Get creative and sketch out a few different ideas for each part you wish to change. This will allow you some leeway in your creative process.
