Hi gang!

I started it a long time ago. After that, I had some PE mojo issues (you'll see why) and stopped it for some months

I used this:







And a big help of this:



After see this book, I want to buy a Maxxpro 1:1

Well, the plastic is fairly easy to build. Nothng lik a Tamiya, but "honest". The "problem" is a ton of PE that I bought:























After that, I thought that was time to "rest" of this build a little and 4 months after bent all of that tins, I re-started with the interior. Paint, weathering, accessories etc. And I have this:















Now, I need to finish it and I'll do!

Hope you like!

Wow Marco!!! Great job!!!

[RLFoster]

Wow is right!

That thing looks fantastic! I do understand how the mojo got eaten up by all that PE though.

Man, this is awesome details!

[MARCO]

Thank you so much guys! Means a lot!

[sty57]

That thing is sweet!

[MARCO]

Thanks a lot mate!

[BUCKY]

Incredible work on the PE! End results will be awesome, I predict!

[MARCO]

Thank you so very much indeed Mr. Admin!

Hi people!

So, I finally finished the build of this wheely. But, as we have 9 or 10ºC and rain, I couldn't start the paint work.

Some pics:







And my nemesis: The front door steps:



They aren't perfect, but after some weathering could be good.

Looks good to me, hopefully the weather will clear up!!!

I don't see how you can mask the interior with tape like that? Must be extremely difficult.

[MARCO]

@joe: Thanks bro, and I hope either.

@bruce: The windows was masked outside. THe doors from inside before closed the hull. I did this if have enough space between the hull sides and seats, dash etc. The rear door will be the "mask" in the rear hull.

Thanks!

[dogfish7 (R.I.P.)]

Thanks. That helps a lot. You do it very well.

[MARCO]

It's one of the problems with wheelys: The complex interiors. (you need to build, paint and weather "2 models")

I'll try to take some pics when I remove the masks (hope everything will doing well )

[JCON]

Masking is always a guess as to how well it sticks and bleeds under the edges!

[MARCO]

I hate masks. I only use it to conceal interiors or if the camo scheme is really hard edge.

[JCON]

I totally agree Marco!!!

[BUCKY]

Looks like a very detailed build. Your usual paint work will really make it a standout model!

[MARCO]

I hope so Bucky, thanks a lot brother!
