| ***land rover defender 110 camel trophy***
Hello, my name is Ivan and I am from Spain. I will present my project of a Land Rover 110 Camel Trophy I do not speak English well, but try to explain. I started the bodywork: I cut the bodywork to make a 110 I made the door for 110 I used plastic plates to attach the body parts I applied putty for the joints I have applied to give rigide vidro fiber inside I have painted with primer, painted with tamiya, place stickers and finished with a layer of lacquer some details of the bodywork Well, tomorrow more.

Wow you D110 is looking amazing. I have seen so much custom fab work on different builds and read a lot of literature on materials used but still don't have the grasp needed to proceed myself. Still a rookie but eager to learn. My friend has a tig welder and a mig welder. What material did you use for your bumper? Did you braze it? And finally what sort of tube bender are you using? A D90 will be my winter build and also my first hard body scaler. Any info or tricks you've learned and willing to share would be appreciated. Thanks for posting so many pics for points of reference.

Hello, now we continue with the defense. Since welding is finished and smoothed. I made a channel inside the defense to put a grid. Then I painted it all with epoxy paint and this is the result. Saludos Iván |

Hello, I have not only a body. First a yellow paint but was not the color camel, then the entire sand and returned to painting with Tamiya camel yellow. The car, during construction, has had several changes, First used axes to cut F-350, an aluminum chassis and a transfer cut craft built for me. After I changed things up to the latest photos I post.

That's great! Well planned so far and the mesh on the "defense" as you call it is a nice touch! |

Wow nice job. I have dreamed about building, but have not gottin there yet. I do have some advice that I have learned over the years of scale building. Every led light needs a fluted lens. They just dont look good without. Amazing build keep it coming Evan |
