Thanks! I make all the styrene parts first this time to be able to fix them if I have to. Mount the fenders with screws to make them removable. |

Simply amazing. How on earth did you nail those rear fenders so perfectly? |

Thanks! I dont know how, they say "Measure thrice and cut once". I used to make a lot of sudden things that had to be fixed later. Sometimes a lot of time is saved just by not doing anything spontaneous. |

Thank you! Continue making foil covers. The taillight was covered in three steps, the seams are hidden under the tape. |

Thank you! Using front styrene mold to make the rear bumper. Also making a single mold for these side doorsteps. |

So damn nice. Coming out beyond excellent. Attention to detail and craftsmanship is unreal but I've said that before. |

| Re: 1966 Ford Bronco 1/6 scale build I used 8 x 250 mm rods. 500 mm also can be found. These rods are very strong, they can be bent into any shape, combined together they form a solid frame. The advantage of building this frame is that it doesn't require a lot of tools. |

| Re: 1966 Ford Bronco 1/6 scale build I wanted to paint it, but keep the metallic texture. This is a thin layer of paint mixed with water. Materials used: Brush, sponge Acrylic paint, water Modern Masters Metal Effects Kit Iron Paint (at least two layers) Rust Activator (apply, wait about 15 minutes until it dries and apply again) |

Very nicely done weathering. May have been mentioned but are you changing the Wheels/Tires to a bigger size? Getting a 1/6 scale look is tough with what is currently available. |

Weathering looks perfect. At first glance, it's impossible to tell it's 1/6. After looking at it for awhile, the tiny wheels really don't look right. If those are 1.9's, you should try some 2.2's, and if they are already 2.2's, then you could stretch them over some 2.6's. The wheels that are on Tamiya's Landcruiser 40 Pickup, are 2.6 and Clod rims can be narrowed. |

Tires work just fine for this killer scale rig. Not all crawlers have to look like mud boggers. That whole rig just looks top notch. Amazing work. |
