First Kit Build

[Xtacy33]

This was my first kit build, first Axial and 2nd crawler. Thankfully I managed to put it altogether without having to redo something too often. Just have some interior/exterior pics but nothing from under the hood as it looks like everyone else's but not as neat haha
My changes/power include axial beadlocks, aluminum bumpers, winch, dit fender wells (gcm diy), 12v aluminum light bar, 12v interior light strips, diy roll cage, PL interior and powered by HH crawlmaster.
I really liked the black and white color scheme so stuck with it and added some stripes to change it a little. Enjoy and it's great looking at everyone else's work for inspiration. I still have all the accessories to do and need to find a family for the inside.

Looks good! I ended up using the proline interior for mine as well. I also need to find an action figure driver for mine. Let me know what you come up with!

Tell you the truth I really been thinking about doing some Walking Dead characters. If I really want to be cheap though I'm sure I can grab one of my dtr's princesses haha depends on how much I keep spending with mods...

nice!
I should install an interior too. But the body just seems way to big. So I'll probably just do it to another.ty

Thanks guys, interior was fun to paint and hopefully I'll have time to make a full interior from scratch on another vehicle in the future but as for now it was fun using that liquid masking tape as a first as well haha

Here are a couple scale additions I made up today and have some other stuff I'm going to try and make up too.

Did some diy bungies, dual exhaust, bed rolls and antenna (we'll see how long that lasts!)

Nice work, Really like the antenna and duel exhaust. I was planning on doing the antenna already. Now you have me thinking of underneath. Keep up the mods and enjoy that rig.

Thanks man, it's been fun and going to rig up some windshield wipers soon once I figure out what to use. Have fun dressing yours up too. Yeh the exhaust came out better than I expected, seen some tubing in my drawer and said let's see if this works and it actually did haha

This was your FIRST kit? Damn, dog. Looks incredible! This is making me rethink using this body.

Yeh, first kit and been messing with crawler/scale stuff the last 6mo or so. Got a 17 y/o traxxas 4tec nitrous up and running after 14 years of sitting in Dec and that led me into a red at volcano the if p601 and now this awesome kit. It's been a fun year finding a new hobby again! This site has been a great resource and inspiration. One day I'll work up to a hard body or play with a welder but don't want to burn up the garage yet
