Default Let's go camping

As if my rigs aren't heavy enough...

Couple pounds of styrene, and about 8 hours so far. The window screens are leftover speaker-grille mesh from the Hilux's MFC-02 noisemaker. Doorknobs are Tamiya ballstuds. And the curtains are toilet paper

The 2x4s holding up the AC is great.

I've only been working on it for about a week. There's a lot more to do yet. Stay tuned.

Stuf, I just noticed the center caps and hub lock out That looks great. I think I want to start a poll to see if there is enough interest in getting RC4wd to make a true wagon wheel for us, similar to the fly wheels one.

Way too cool. Are you gonna do all the accessories, popup vent, side jacks, exterior door light, etc?

Those are the caps that Mnster is selling over on Scale. Amazing how just covering the wheel nuts adds to the realism, huh?

I'd love some wagon wheels. Although you can make your own with TC4 rims, they're not all that accurate, and pinstriping them is a bitch.

Started detail painting, threw some window screen in the AC, built the ladder, set up the broken screen door so it flaps about while I drive, and just for shits & giggles put it in the back of Racer4Life's duallie...

it looks real nice but you have one thing rong. the metal screen door goes on the inside od the other door. both doors on campers swing out so your scren door would have no purpuse realy.
