Default Xjmachine builds a 1993 dodge ramcharger

Whats up guys, back on here to start on this bad boy.

I am using a 3d printed hardbody.

It is TF2 based. I had it scaled as close as it could be to the RC4WD blazer, as they are about the same 1:1 size.

Anywho, Lets get to it.

Here are the 3d file pix. To get an idea of how it looked before printing.




Here it is printed. (Was printed in 3 parts) took about 70 hrs





Has about 95% tire tuck just like the blazer body.



They're gonna look good together

Needs a bit of sanding...





I always have trouble choosing colors.

Here is a comparison of the ramcharger next to my blazer. The k5 is about .25" wider than the dodge. Not too bad at all...

Purple and silver 2 tone are the colors;)

Here is a mock up on my tf2 blazer

Still sanding away and filling the imperfections. Its a lot of work rounding those boxy lines

Id say im about half way done with the body before its final primer.

Looks like one piece..ish lol





I still have to add some styrene for the gutter mounts and window lining.

That Ramcharger is nice. Think you should do a little weathering. It would look nice with a pre runner tube bumper
