Default Super cheep Camo.









Tires are in the mail. lol

Anyway, was tired of the black panels and since this went from a 1.9 rig running AX10 axles to a 2.2 rig running wraith axles I wanted to change it up a bit.
Beleave it or not the camo is camo duct tape. Just $3 and change per roll, the bone collector decals were $10, $5 a set which I used parts from 2 sets for this one body. The best part is when the panels get scratched up you can't really see the scratches and when it's bad enough to replace you get enough tape on one roll to recover the panels multiple times.

That look's pretty good! And if you decide you don't like it, you can just peel it off... I like it!

nice job, i need to figure out how to paint the new patterns.

here's my latest #6. got tired of trying to find drab colors that stick to plastic so i just get stupid with colors now. i spent 4 hours taping this up trying to get a little different effect that looks more 3d.

Sweet looking rigs guys, glad I'm not the only camo fan here.

Mine finally got wheels/tires on it and some scale miles put on her.

Why yes they are.

They actually have nerf darts molded in digital camo.

Duct tape fixes everything, or in this case covers everything
