Cooltoys 129 Posted October 21, 2013 Since i love the blackfoots and having a few of them around. I decided to make one a little different to the ones i already have.. Clean up time first.. scrub scrub scrub... Painted it a different color since all the other ones are all red. A little color to make it pop up a bit. Wet paint.. Toasting at the fireplace..

Shodog 1835 Posted November 10, 2013 With all that aluminum, a cool color for the chassis would have been Tamiya's brushed aluminum silver paint Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cooltoys 129 Posted November 11, 2013 Looks stunning , love the alu hop-ups Thanks... The alu hops ups are pretty neat looking.. Looks great so far. I like those front aluminum C hubs. They are pretty well built.. I was deciding on polishing it or not. It might stay like this for now.. love this build ! what paint you using for the plastic parts ?? Just regular spray can paint.. Enamel i'm guessing. With all that aluminum, a cool color for the chassis would have been Tamiya's brushed aluminum silver paint Yeah that will be an awesome color.. Might do that on the next project.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RichieRich 685 Posted November 12, 2013 Wow, that's pretty impressive. I didn't realize almost everything could be replaced with an aluminum part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
