David Baude took common Solido models, and in a production run of about 100 models, transformed them into what you see here. This Solido/Baude 1939 Bugatti 575 Atalante went from low end detail to a model that rivals much more co
stly 1/43rd. I dont know much about this series, but great work.

David Baude has done a wonderful jog on this Solido Bugatti also. The lighting looks interesting. I can't find anything like it in my Bugatti books. Thank you for retrieving this one from your accumulation Robert. I have not seen David's work previously.

@david-green I too am interested in the lighting. My first thought was a missing lens, but a closer look showed two distinctly different lens. I will be interested in what you are able to find about this unusual lighting.

Would look nice next to this one from the Minichamps Mullin Collection. I have not seen an Atalante drop-top before. Note the different headlamp position.
