Default Winter Projects

Now that the weather is getting ready to change, what are your plans for a winter project?

I saw some pictures of Jeep's concept vehicles and I'm thinking of taking one on for my first styrene project.

First choice is the J12 concept. Now I know Geno is building a M-715, which is similar, so this wouldn't be a steal of his idea.


Second choice is the Mighty FC (forwad control) that has portal axles.

Fc on portals would be sweet! I'm building a fj cruiser tuber. Yota axles. Custom chassis built by fatboyrs10. Tires around 4.1" maybe the new scx10 maxxis tires.

My winter projects will be simple due to lack of (much) funds. I wanna build a set of sliders for my new rig (so I may be hitting you up), as well as continue to work on this:



It still needs ALOT. I want 2.2's and a bunch of other stuff

Whenever you want, just let me know.

I have the stock Ripsaw's from the Wraith that you can have. They're glued on to the stock Wraith (kit version) rims.

Great project! I agree your not copying doesnt matter anyway. Mine is a blend from the 60's Kaiser M715 thru the Nukizer Concept.
Either way you go should be cool.

I picked up an Exo for a good price so I've been getting that built up. I may get a TF2 to mess around with. I have a chassis for a TF1 but by the time I get everything for it I may have well just sprung for the TF2 kit. I'm also planning to do some work on the black ford and the dingo. Both are due for a tune up.
