It's been so long since I was researching everything about this rig, that I need to go back and do it all over again to remember what I need to do. I have parts too!

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

Yeah I had to quite a bit of research myself, I think these came out 6 or so years ago lol.

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

Installed the new rear bumper, rock rails, and Junfac drive shafts tonight, think I'll do the aluminum knuckles, clubs, and lockouts tomorrow night. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c73fd38ba6.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...cc72147db3.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...519905638a.jpg

Liking the new shoes...the driver...well, he's a driver and seems to fit well. :lmao:

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

Yeah these Sawbacks need a driver, looks weird moving without a driver, not so noticeable on other RC's. I normally wouldn't bother but felt this needed one. I have to admit I felt a little childish playing with an action figure at age 50 but then I thought about it and laughed, I'm still playing with toy cars :lmao:

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

Yup, we're all still playing with toy cars. :lmao:

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

this thing looks pretty cool

that driver though he needs some gold chains and some tecno playing in the back ground lol

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

Thanks, yeah he needs some work lol

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

why is a good driver so hard to find

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

How bout it? With the huge uptick in this hobby you'd think some company would jump into realistic scale looking bodies with a few different scale sizes. I find myself walking up and down the toy isles at Walmart looking at figures. Always saying , no, no, no....ah hell no.....

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

Is that Ghetto Hunter Dan?? :) I had the turkey and fishing version....that's a new one on me!

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

I'm gonna have to take another pic, this is Turkey Hunter Dan [emoji38]

some gold chains maybe a teen skipper in a short mini skirt and some face paintings lol
instant raver dan lol
a sound syztem with some cheasy tecno playing would just round it off lol

ok back to reality nice jeep lol

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

i left a message on scale builders guild asking for a driver tutorial video lol

it would be nice if someone would make scale drivers this hobbie needs them

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

With a little super glue, spot filler, and airbrush I feel like you could make some of the existing driver options nearly photorealistic. The bolts through the elbow can be hidden, skin can be toned/shadowed, that stiff seating position can be altered if you aren't worried about cutting one up...I don't know anyone who sits ramrod straight while driving except maybe motorcycle cops lol

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

I feel like any attempt to make a realistic driver is just going to run face first into the uncanny valley. I've seen the opposite approach often garner more success, not taking the driver too seriously and often as an opportunity for a little humor. Put something whacky in there, not too outlandish, just something funny or weird that people might not notice on the first pass.

Re: Kincer's Sawback
 

What does this mean lol.


So I was just saying you can make an action figure look decent with a little work. Not that you would be cruising around with wax museum figures...

Plan B, Axial helmet set. I did that to my Enduro and they look really real lol.

It isn't a difficult concept, I was just saying your doll is always gonna look like a doll so why not take the opportunity to be more creative.
