Post your Axial CF-100 paint jobs
 

I am building my first scaler, and what to see what others did with this body as not much is coming to mind for me so far. Post them up."thumbsup"

the key to scaler paint scemes is to keep it simple
1 or 2 colors at most
any more than 2 and it starts looking like a hot rod instead of a trail rig

here's what i did w/ mine

i also highly recomend getting the interior kit if you're planning to keep use the body. picked one up today from my lhs today, looks really promising (gonna use it for a dingo body though)

Nice color and nice work on the vid."thumbsup"

Amazing videos, thanks for sharing. "thumbsup"

my dad who is now retired has been asking about coming "to use the trucks" for a while now so I figured i would use it as an excuse to build another kit"thumbsup"

I plan on going with the OG SCX10 kit with the CF-100 body, I thought long and hard on what body i think he would like and being born in '48 i think the CF is perfect for him. I want to paint it like an old beat up truck. I have this plan in my head to keep the rear fenders but ditch the bed and build a real wood drop bed in its place but the old worn out eat up paint job is what i would/could definatly use a few pointers on. Like how to make rust spots and spots that have worn to bare metal and DENTS:flipoff: how do you make dents in leaxan bodies? just melt and bend?

thanks in advance for any input

This is a fun body, also pretty easy to "honcho" the rear."thumbsup"

Thanks for your support - have been working on a Honcho too. Hope to have a video up soon.:mrgreen:

Have a look at this CF100 - think this is what you are aiming for. You may be able to make contact with them for advice, or they may be link that someone can put hear too.

Hey love this body. The 'honcho' style works well "thumbsup"

considering the axial for my next truck and while i love the dingo, this thread is making me consider otherwise.

Here's mine:

Well the good news this is the same wheel base as the Dingo. Buy this one, have fun building, use the CF100 and also get a Dingo body for it . . . the best of all 8)

WOW what a great use of the CF100 body and interior "thumbsup"

wish i never sold this one,one of my best work

SWEET! I love it!!!!!

I thought everyone just didnt like these bodies, i have 2 that i will be painting for my clod monster truck, i will get some pics later when i get it done. I have always been a fan of that body style, I used to own a 1948 Chevy 1500 shortbed 3 window that I was working on.
