Rework of the template and new seats

Week 5 This week I started working on the seats. I began by using the templates from my previous build, but before going any further, I decided to watch the movie once again to check whether they actually matched the original vehicle. As it turned out, they didn't, so the templates had to be redesigned. After carefully studying the available reference photos and movie scenes, I estimated all the dimensions by eye, without using any measuring tools. It took several attempts, but I finally achieved a shape that closely matches the original seats. During this research, I also discovered that the seats are not black as I had previously thought, but a warm chocolate brown. This part of the project required a surprising amount of time. Most of the scenes showing the interior last only a few seconds, making it quite difficult to pause the movie at exactly the right moment. However, the effort was well worth it, as I was able to uncover details that I had missed during my previous build. Unfortunately, I don't have the correct brown paint yet, so the finished seats will be shown in my next update. The next step will be the door panels, after which I can finally begin assembling parts of the interior. **Materials used this week:** - Thin cardboard - Thick cardboard - Hot glue
