So had a good go at the insides today little more fettling required and a bit more rubbing on the outside as well.
Got the two seperate front seats done and also a rear bench.
Underneath there is room for a Small 3s pack and a Receiver. i have relocated the Rc4wd box so that the esc can go in there.

The interior is looking great lots of detail. Did it take you awhile to build?

Ya know, you'd better slow down. You're making the rest of us look like we're not trying.

Awesome work Dude!

Good day today got the Underside Finally Primed and Rubbed out.
Shot it with Satin Black this afternoon as well.
Few little bits on the top side then I can shoot some top coat.

Topper take two I didn't like the first one looked off in some way so today I got the basics done needs a little fettle here and there but it should work out just fine.





I could't just glue it to the body because I want it removeable so you can see all the insides, so a bit of head scratching i've come up with this.
4x3mm Earth Magnets in the Bed.



4 in the top


That'll work

Excellent work and detail Neil !!

If I may make a constructive criticism, it seems the diameter of tubing used for the roll bar is a bit to large. I do not know the 1:1 size but my memory of these trucks tells me that it wasnt as beefy as your rendering.

Any chance you can give a little tutorial on how you formed the topper ?

Of all of the beautiful bodies that I've watched you build in these pages, I'd love to see this one get sent to someone who could make a mold from it and repeat these in a resin version.

Well spotted was hoping no-one would notice
I hunted around at work for ages and it was all I could find lying around.

Its about 6mm so scaled up around 50mm tubing. I can live with it.

The top you basically make a box without a lid but for 2 sides you obviously angle them in.

Finally getting there after much sanding I could take no more it was time for the Top Coat.

Paint from Tamiya TS-38 Gun Metal well it had to be really you cant go wrong with Gun Metal.
For once the sun is out in Blighty so two cans later here's what I have come up with.
Not sure whether to Laqcuer it or not I dont want it too shiny if that makes sense.

Looks amazing. Really can not go wrong with the gray, my buddy has a gray 86 in a very similar color.

Blacked the Grill out and added the Corner Marker Lenses.
Stock TF2 Plastic Bumper fits nicely round the front panel which is nice
