|  Styrene body ideas
So I'm pretty keen on making a body from styrene for both something to do and because my CC01 Pajero lacks in originality. Having no experience in building with styrene I'm looking for some bodies with as fewer curves as possible. I had in mind a 1/2 tonne Landy  or a Forward Control Landy  but I'm desperate for some other ideas. So, what are everyone's thoughts? |

Flatest bodies I can think of are a Willys Jeep, Suzuki Sammy, and Hummers. If you were to do 1/8 scale for the Jeep and Zuki, they would fit nicely.

That Volvo 304 is VERY nice  if I were building a body for a 6x6 that would definately be a top choice. But for my CC01 the 303 is also looking quite good! Could do a rally style one or something...In the transporter kind of idea I thought maybe a Pinzgauer which the NZ army uses so its a bit more relevant than a Swedish one  .

c303's are easy, and the wheelbase of a CC-01 is nearly spot on. Here's mine (and it was my first scratch build as well):  Build Thread Last edited by imthatguy; 12-06-2013 at 06:31 AM. |
