My painting has been the challenge been fighting the masking tape I got from the auto paint store , paints are tamiya italian red and gloss aluminum . The paint bleeding under is driving me friggen nuts!

Hey guys let me know what ya think so far not to bad for my 1st try?

I love the dash. Paint is a pain for me too.

Looks really nice, just my opinion, don't mean any offense, I think Globeliners look better on King Hauler frame rails. Gives them a couple inches of coolness that can be bought cheap.

Don't be discouraged,You probably need a lil touch up, but once you start adding on the parts it wont even matter

Good start so far

Hi thanks I'll keep that in mind. I'm kinda new to these models and I wanna get mine up and running now and later I want to stretch her out and maybe ad a lift axel with bags. I'm running a 55 turn axial crawler motor, tried a 6 tooth pinion I got from eBay but it's way too long I think it's for a clodbuster I tried longer screws a washers but now the motor wont fit behind my servos

YOur doing good.. Auto body fine line does not work with Tamiya or any other model paint it is just to thin and if you get it to heavy it bleeds. If you want to redo it use tamiyas fine line it work great been using it for year I have not bleed threw issues it all. Next you can go to a body supply shop get some 1/16 fine line in any color you want and strip out your strips that should cover you bleed threw if is is not to bad pulse it really makes your strips look great. On the motor it will if but you have to use the right pnion from RC4WD 6 tooth short and you put a 1/4 spacer between the motor and the tranny. Now them Axial motors are long so you will have to change it I use Integy or Trinity 55 turns in all my trucks I am not a big fan on the 4 to 1 GRU when you get the same power and speed out of a 55 turn and a 6 tooth.

i also agree with mack daddy ! once you start adding your parts you wont even notice. the colors look real good together. great start.

Thanx guys I'm gonna go to my local hobby shop and have him order me some of that tamiya tape . I have 2 hobbyshops that I have found down here so far the one closer to me (45minutes away) stocks the tamiya paint but no tape . The one that's about a hour and a quarter has more stuff but I gotta check if he has the tape. He is gonna order me the mfu when I'm ready , and I just picked up a hi torque servo from him for my steering setup it's not a hitec 645 that I have seen on the posts but it has I think the same torque I'll take a pic in a little bit and post it to show what I did to it today . Oh it said that it's digital.
