Oh How Original Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) Over the past few weeks I've been contemplating finishing this off and today I decided to clean up my desk and make some space for my building materials. Found all my old stuff and figured I'd have a crack at finishing it off. So not sure if anyones interested in a thread but figured I would start one anyway. It won't be super to scale, definitely not going to look a 'show off' piece, but hell, I just love building stuff like this! Here is what it looked like last time I did anything to it.

RCbutcher Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Looks good for scratch are you going to extend the bonnet or chop the windscreen down. Hemistorm did something similar its amazing what you can do with plasticard good luck man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 May chop the window frame a little as it does look a tad too tall, but to be honest I'm doing it just for fun and something to do over actually wanting it 100% perfectly to scale. Yeah I saw what Chris did, I liked his quite a lot. I fancy doing the Tomb Raider Landy one day, it looks a beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioFish Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Where can I get plans for a 1/10 version of this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 No idea, I've never worked off plans before to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioFish Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Could just find blueprints for a 1:1 and divife by 10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 You could, but if memory serves me correctly, 1:10 chassis's aren't actually 1:10, for example the RC4WD D90 hard body is about 1:8 in reality, not 1:10. Judging by the wheelbase and overall length of it. You're much better off just building it to fit whatever chassis you have planned for it, then you know it fits. The ACTUAL scale, doesn't matter if it's just for your own use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh How Original Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Not sure what a Tomahawk is lol, heard the name but never done a search or anything. These really are just for crawlers and scalers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioFish Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Aaaah its a truggy, also have an sc4 thats about buggered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Yeah a hard body isn't really built for bashing... You'd be better off just buying a lexan shell and perhaps reinforcing the inside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
