Now I’m not so sure. Cracking looking rig! Wow that colour is great! Does it come with a front bumper? Id keep the chrome too i think it looks good + it will scratch off in the end and be matt black underneath so either way you will get the look you want in the end haha 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post James.S Posted August 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2021 Stickered up the WL 124019. I had no idea what I was going to use the pink ones for and then this came along and I think the colour suits it pretty well 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Shergar Posted August 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2021 Got round to assembling my Radshape antique chassis and rag bag of Maverick/FTX/HSP parts into this: Wheels are just rollers, waiting on a few parts I’ve frustratingly got to pay full price for 😂 Mauler hex extenders and some longer shocks incoming. Aiming for an old school 80’s monster truck so bigger wheels + tyres and a shell still on the list, I’m in no rush. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JupiterTwo Posted August 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 2, 2021 Accessories and stickers added to the C10 body I’ve yet to decide if I magnetic mount or normal mount it. I’ve not had the greatest success in the past with magnetic mounts, so the pin mounts are attractive because they just work. However that bonnet is so shiny no pretty it seems a shame to puncture it. However, this was meant to be a runner body, so with the shiny and the sticky out wing mirrors, have I failed at that? 🤣 holding off on new wheels/tyres for now, my bank balance needs a rest! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post tomr Posted August 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 2, 2021 Took me hours of messing around modifying/bodging but I’ve managed to fit oil filled shocks to the 1/18 Patriot...and they actually work great. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Fly In My Soup Posted August 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) As I often do...used the downtime between epoxy curing on larger projects to make something else. In this instance.... some ryft panels in navy blue jacquard weave carbon fibre backed with dupont kevlar...all of course off cuts / trimmed edges & leftover mixed resin...

billyb_imp Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Added in a pair of aluminium rock sliders on the TRX-4 Sport, I wasn’t going to put these on but I appear to have accidentally doubled up on a couple of orders and somehow managed to order from both Modelsport & Wheelspin. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem fine after a charge, I'll keep an eye however I've already got a refund as I told Amazon they should be balanced and you can't ship fault lipo batteries. Next time I pop to my local model shop I'll pick some better ones up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BigGinge Posted August 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2021 Finally got a chance to clean up and mask the shell for my EMB-T build. If I’m lucky I might get a chance to try and paint it tomorrow. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
