What?? Now I'm walking around like the "Wiz". again.

Shovel is done, and also did the smallest braze I've ever done. The bolt is a stock micro crawler one:

Awesome build, do you know if that fingertech esc could properly operate a 180 sized motor? I've got a project I've been planing and in the past I have had trouble finding an esc that works with a 180

Why thank you very much Sir.

Got her eyes done, wee water-transfer decals, floated in epoxy resin. I just have to make a cool video of it now.

Go ahead and start one. they are great fun, and challenging because of the size. As for perfect, that's all a point of view...

How did You make the course? it is absolutely astonishing. I have recently made my own out of Styrofoam covered in paper mache, it turned out looking like garbage, but like I said yours is great.

1rst, 2nd, and even 3rd attemps to make something from scratch, usually don't turn out as expected. Satisfactory results come from continuous practice. Keep making landscapes, and soon you will acheive what you are aiming for.

Here is a link to it's fab work:
