Thank you, though she's nothing to do with me.  Chassis is the ubiquitous, and capable (being a Team C car) BSR Rally :thumbsup:

 

Shell was allegedly painted for Parma as a show body - Toyo details are painted in, not decals.

We took the cars out for a stroll through the woods this morning. No breakages to report, the only minor thing was I popped a turnbuckle on the Outcast but it just popped straight back on. My lad has now nailed throttle control of his Bugsta, no more full throttle and then a breakage. Time to go brushless for him I think

Tested matt black paint and as usual I put too much on second coat so got a small run.  Nice texture though.  I need something that stops me doing "just one more spray" when painting things.

Decided to "Adjust" some of my previous work on the Axial SCX10 ii, I cut down the motor cables (Only a cheap motor) and routed them properly, also moved the on off switch and stuck it down properly. I don't know what you guys think but I personally think its a lot better.

 

Also fitted my new "Very expensive for what seems like not much reason" Body!

Could I possibly be the worst solderer on the forum? Really like the body though, but now have no solid front or back bumpers... what do people do about that as this body will get ruined if I use it.

Then i did this, again my soldering skills although getting better leave a lot to be desired! burned the casing so will probably have to change the plugs when more arrive!

I really wish I tried harder in DT class when I was at school!

As I had some time to myself I decided to get the raptor body fitted better on the scx10. Also cut the front bumper off so I could use the axial bumper. Think it looks pretty good now, just need to.add some scale stuff to it.

If you're not using it already then buy some flux.  I've found flux core solder isn't enough on larger wire / connectors.
