I got this morning some news from Australia, and the stickers are on the way...


Looking forward for it, and thanks to my friend

Some stuff arrived today from a friend in Australia


And I'll be finishing at least one project very soon

Another Milestone crossed in a long project...

The stickers arrived yesterday from Australia... I could not wait to apply them... And it looks like the project can be called done... Marui Super Wheelie unreleased Mitsubishi Jeep (kit MT60-RC09 as presented in Marui RC Catalag from 1986). With two chassis I could probably reproduce the catalog im...

I'm missing an upper arm for the 44B Long Wheel base chassis... As far as I know, there is only one piece missing for the Zerda and it is the 18T MXL pulley. I have one in aluminium, but I believe it is to soft, as I can mark the surface easily with a screwdriver. In the meantime, that should allow ...

I wanted to participate this contest for quite a while, but I wanted to do with something very unique...

And there is quite a good level of work on those 3 comicals

I post on forums related to 3D printing as well, and this week I got a nice surprise : this week, my Super Wheelie made it to the week's publication of the companion blog with nice pictures... https://www.lesimprimantes3d.fr/semaine-impression-3d-406-20231015/ This is the second time one of my car h...

Nice project... I'll follow this for sure :-) I've tried to print tires, using TPU and rubber resin (see my own threads in Marui area), and rear face is always a problem. That said, with TPU you may have a way to sort it out by printing your tire in halves and gluing them using flex seal : you have ...

Focus is back on the 44B chassis... First, I decided to do a support super easy to print... Tires are now 1 mm over the ground... https://i.imgur.com/opOcmxS.jpg Next I review the roll bar. The target is to have something that can be used when running (with search lights in a very Marui way). I may ...

Clone examination - the gearbox... I unmounted the rigid axle. The right arm is slightly different and add some additional freedom... I may have to try that car, finally :-) https://i.imgur.com/a1speCX.jpg I found some suprising difference inside the gearbox... https://i.imgur.com/YixehbX.jpg More t...

I missed one damaged on ebay by 0.01 EUR at the last second of an auction few months back, and I stopped bother searching for one since then. Anyway, I had a model, so I should be able to print one at some point... And on Sunday, someone seeing my chassis alone in a picture without a bodyshell gentl...

As mentioned in the post thread, I received today a bodyshell I was no longer expecting to find, and it is in very nice state... I was not long to put it on its second half (previous owner told me "I have abodyshell who is bored and searching for its second half" ). https://i.imgur.com/J3Y...
