Default It's a MAN thing.

Well this whole thing came about because i was board sitting at home and NEEDED something to do.
So after searching round i found just what i wanted to do.
First thing was to re-scale the pic and after some playing around i got it at 250% bigger so the next job was a run to my LHS for styrene.
6 sheets later this is now what i have,It's based on an XC chasis and sit's and feels very good.
The full build-up can be found here.....

Looks great. I saw that on the scale4x4rc boards. I know thats how they paint them in Europe but I'd still paint it a diff color. Course thats just for myself.

From finding and re-sizeing the plan to the pic's shown was just a week.
As for the paint job i know where your coming from ! after sitting looking at it last night i've descided to chop the rear and turn it into a drop side and get rid of the RED/Blue there's just something about it i DON'T like so your NOT on your own TC the paint is just plain UGLY LOL.

Thx Steve.

That is awsome work. Do you plan on doing a cage around the cab?

Nice work, very scale looking. Are you going to add windshields or any kind of interior?
