German Dingo Defenfer !

[yodi79]

I was asked if I could not make a building report, here it is.
The car is ready, will spread the report on some days.

I bought in the German forum a used kit.




Then the first tire, the controller and the 4 link mount




Then I started to build it all together






Then one self made front of a furniture mesh and polystyrene. And my new driver from Ex2. Sly




I have taken the interior from the wraith and adapted it to the body







Loading area was made of polystyrene in diamond plate optics






then I cut to fit the cage and passed him




now I builded still a draw sheet for the cage











tomorrow it continues..........

I'll be looking forward to seeing the finished product.

Looks Great. Where does the diamond plate come from? And are the wheels from RC4WD?

[Cr00zah]

That is very cool, nice concept and well done! I look forward to seeing more.

[yodi79]

Thanks.

The Diamond Plate is from ebay and the tires are from Ansmann,also bought at ebay.

It continues....



now the wipers come out of the rest of my drifters



then I built a snorkel from the dingo rods
and the mirror were mounted








the first interim result



Then I painted the diamond plate front and rear and mounted the manufactured parts








the antenna I built from remnants of the dingo and a fiberglass rod



the homemade defender logo consists of polystyrene and the writing would be printed with the laser printer and then glued






the radio device and the handset I have also made up of polystyrene,
Display the speedometer and the other I bought, they are flureszierend and glow in the dark




then I've got a tire and other scale parts on the loading surface mounted



the belts are made ​​of ordinary tape





that was the first version of the car, but not really liked myself






a friend said I should make a proper loading surface to make it look real,so I cut everything out







and built polystyrene again with a new one






then the wheel arches




and the whole then painted





and then the scale parts





the number labels are also from polysyrol




then another Feinstaubplakette is necessary only in Germany.

the gas cap I bought on ebay and then built and plastered

[yodi79]

the first version of the antenna is broken, the second is now flexible by a spring and keeps



then came new wheels

[yodi79]

that was the fast forward of my version form the Dingo and here is the result. If you have questions, you can write to me.

the pictures are still the old tires and rims. And on the last picture with the new ones. Trailbuster from RC4WD and Gmade Beadlocks

Hi Thomas,

nice car. Is the Carjack from hgans3? Where did you get the ratchet straps? Something I also still need.

Greetings from Germany by Klaus

[yodi79]

Hey and Danke :-)

The jack is from Hans ! And the ratchet straps are from modellbau traenkel.

Again, wonderful work! Your attention to detail is fantastic, and it has turned out beautifully. I am building a Dingo now and really like what you did with the cage and loading area, I may have to do something similar. Thank you for posting this!

[rcguy]

Awesome looking rig. I love the details uou put into it and all the scale accessories.

[yodi79]

Thanks for the well-received my car in America, as it likes to build.
A friend from the forum has brought me today a Dingo body. It is a Defender conversion again, but do not know exactly.
You can like to make suggestions.




This was the result of the scalerun today:

[yodi79]

Today my new China Rok Lox arrived. This weekend I'm going to test them. Look a lot better I think.








greets Thomas

[Cr00zah]

Make the new one a removable top!

I like the new wheels. The tires are a bit wide for Defender, I tend to think of taller skinny tires on Rover vehicles. But the ones you have are still very nice.

[yodi79]

Yes you're right. But the Trail Buster are very narrow and has been a very big disadvantage, on earth or mud.

Then there is ain extreme Defender

[Noll11]

This is awesome! I wish I was even half as good as this at modding bodies.

[yodi79]

It is not at all that hard, just try it. Best to start simply times to build the rest will follow.

The first Test with Rok Lox from China !
