Finally finished a 3D printing project I started about 3 weeks ago. Bought a pair of side tables for the theater room with the intent of doing a diorama on each one of them. First one I wanted a Wizard tower with a Kraken attacking it and a dragon sitting atop the tower watching on. Pretty much everything is 3d printed except the base I carved/sculpted out of foam then airbrushed and flocked it with sand and flocking. And the trunk of the tree is one of my bonsai trees that died over the winter so I just spread aquarium filter floss across the branches then flocked it the way model railroad guys do on their builds. Rest is all printed and airbrushed. Water I airbrushed the base then coated it in clear silicone, then added waves by pulling upwards on the silicone as it dried and painted the white tips. Also added flicking light inside the tower as well as a flickering micro LED chip on the end of the wizards torch. Probably over 200+ hrs into it from start to finish. Fit's right into the theater room theme really nicely. Was quite an enjoyable build, already kicking around ideas for what will be built on the 2nd of the side tables.
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.
A problem shared is a problem halved but an advantage shared is no advantage at all.
Latest 3d print for the theater room. After working non stop for the past week I took some time to relax this morning and painted up my latest 3D print. Neytiri from Avatar.
I love to restore more than building new out the box. Its just something about bringing old forgotten RC'S back to life so when I came across someone who had this old blackfoot body and Sees Aluminum wheels with a vintage Sassy Chassis thats been...

That came out spectacular ! Well worth your effort.
My wife and I just moved into a new house, and I have claimed a spare bedroom downstairs as my own. I had a little workshop at the old place, but it was in a separate building, and it rains a lot here. This is much cozier and easier to get to.
I...

Got a full set of 4? Flipwils could maybe use them on his purple B3. :D
hello, here is my custom A&L RC10. I made some of the parts (front and rear shock struts, tranny plate, motor guard) because I don't want any black part on it.
I put a protech body on it because it has a high roof (A&L rear shock tower is...

That is an awesome looking buggy. Don't know why but I love the old school look of fiberglass.
Here are some early pics of a new project I'm working on. I don't have a RWD RC car yet, and tons of spare parts for the 4WD Optima...so what to do? Well, I bought a couple parts cars and spare parts from flipwils11 that included 2 mostly complete...

Hey, have you run those rear tires? If not can we trade for them? I recently aquired a PB mini mustang, and those are the perfect tire for that car. I can send you other/different ones. LMK -J
So I got a sweet deal on 12L4 that had a bunch of CRC parts on it and the originals in the box. I converted the 12L4 back to stock (associated spent a lot of time designing it right the first time) and started mulling over what to build with the...

The Rc-X2 conversion was from Bullet Racing. It was a graphite chassis that used the RC10 front end with the JRX2 rear end. The logic, and keep in mind that this was before the stealth came out, was that the JRX gearbox was cheaper to buy than the...
