87Warrior Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Looking good! I have to ask, why did you paint the inside then the outside of the shell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue88Comanche Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 Looking good! I have to ask, why did you paint the inside then the outside of the shell? I painted the inside silver, and the outside Blue. This way when I get a good scratch it looks like it took it to the metal. Just gives it the warn in look. On the "First run with the tires" photo, If you look above the orange side marker on the drivers side you can see where I chipped the paint and the silver is showing through.

Swampy Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I used to have a 1/10 scale bronco. This was back in 2012 when I was 14 and before I got into real cars, I kinda miss the little rc scale crawler, It sure was lots of fun. I want another one but I have a jeep to finish first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
