Yeah, no paint "yet". I kinda want to farm it out. It seems like a new from kit on a near pristine factory short chassis build deserves more than a two masking tape stripes three colors MAX rattle can afterthought job (but only because I'm not 14 years old now). Thinking clear wing though!

Maybe a paint scheme using that translucent paint might go with the theme?

That's a pretty buggy... Can't blame a ya for wanting to farm out the paint. Cost of paint, materials, etc. is almost the same as a professional paint job... but without the better results.

Not exactly today, that was more during the long week-end we had here in France, but met again @TravelinTravis and @Trass in Belley for few days of RC vintage fun...

I recently finished the Bolink Cruiser thanks to Danomite for the pieces I was missing. Except... It just didn't look right
So, I had some wheel dots made I think I like it!

Butchered this 6 gear motorplate to fit a stealth and then chopped some more to fit it into the tamiya astute chassis. Quite pleased with the final result. Will dye the stealth case black to match the tamiya plastics

Finished off some plastic fantastic kits. The sabre was done and just needing stickers but I decided to print up the dummy msc for it also. They just look right. The bigwig was on preorder from amain since it was announced and I had to build it right away. Even though it's just a fancy hotshot underneath it's just sooooo sexy
I think I like it!
