Here she is...99% done, just some visor hardware and bottom trim to put back on. Cody can feel free to change up the stickers later on.

You going to coat that in clear afterwards, right?

It has 4 coast on it already. Clear coat on stickers...is that okay, this is a first for me???

Yup, right over the stickers is normal! Looks Sharp!

YES, yes, more clear coats to come, thanks!

Looks like I'm remasking the inside again lol

Rod, I left room to apply your huge Littau sticker on the back on the helmet. I think it would be a good way to personalize it.

Hope Cody is enjoying his helmet!

On to some of my own painting. This is my fourth Ivan Stewart paint scheme now, this one using the Protech body. It will be going on my OIN buggy, which is powder coated blue with all blue hardware and FT stuff. Guess all of that blue stuff is going to be stripped along with the chassis. I thinking a white or red chassis will suit this build better after getting this body trimmed and on.

As for the body, I gave the roll bars a chrome moly look with flat black panels. The rest is pretty straight forward.

Looks great.. though I can't help thinking that it sure looks like someone got an order for a boxart JrxT body mixed up lol

Holy crap

I was wondering why it looked like it was done already on a different model

Once I get some Toyota decals on there maybe it'll have a different feel.

Just don't get the urge to throw any JrxT decals on it to screw with peoples minds...

ya but Losi probably stole it from Ivan Stewart's truck

I think it looks great

Ivan had been running that paint job since long before Losi even thought about the JRXT. He started with blue instead of red.


I like the paint AE. I'd throw some decals on it and run it.

Losi definitely used the Ivan Stewart truck, right down to the number choice




Oh, and it WILL be ran!
