It's amazing how it keeps your eye from being distracted like the white ones did!

Much better. ;)

Skulls were a graphic sheet I picked up at a hobby store, next time I go outside I will get the name of the stickers, there slightly transparent so I painted the lexan black underneath. Its one 8x11 sheet of skulls just like you see. Almost looks like a cammo job.

Already got scratches on the tubes, cant even see them without looking hard, before with the paint the scratches would jump out. Luckily no skulls were damaged


Found info for the skulls Parma Carbon Skulls Decal #10631 http://shop.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&P=WR&I=LXJMF9

I can only fit in the roof and rear window panels, the back door could work, but the front door panels wont work as the frame splits into different directions, and im not good enough to form metal.
I would like to try lexan, is there a place that sells it in sheets. I havent been into rc since 6 years ago and dont have any scraps laying around, so I used thin metal.

Pic how it is now

what chassis and trans. is that? thanks

Not sure about the chassis (DMG Possibly), but it is a stock transmission with a metal HR case. The chassis (without knowing who made it and not trying to offend anyone) is outdated performance wise when compared to the GC3/MRC Pro or T1E moonbuggy and the metal case is unnecessary. Instead of looking back to all of these older builds, check out some of the more recent stuff if you are looking start/complete a build. There is a ton of tech also in the sticky's on the top!
