I'll see if I can steal some monkey glue from work.

For now here's an overall shot or two, and a TTB flex shot:

Its missing ducttape. Maybe holding an access panel closed, or patching a screen or something.

Black or gray watercolor watered down a bunch will weather the new balsa well. maybe a little watered down green for moss under AC where the water drips out.

I was just catching up on my reading and must say that the fact it is on a short box just adds to the Redneck scale effect. Throw that puppy on a Subaru Brat body and it would even be better.

So being that I am just a little bit Redneck I must disagree. Of course my Redneck rig is a 2008 35' double popout monster I am still trailer trash just the same.

I'll give it

Post #67 has a link to the TTB build. Since both diffs are still open, it's more like 2wd, but both axles are driven.

I hit the shell with some Tamiya red-brown (rust streaks and an overall wash) to give it some weathering, as well as painting on diluted sludge from the bottom of the cup I clean paint brushes in. It's drying now, and the effect gets a lot more subtle as the water evaporates, so I'll post up a pic when it's completely dry.

The poo bucket got a good dose of sludge, too. It's nasty
