Tamiya Arocs with Actuator and MFC-03

[Dafinity 8]

Hello Everyone,

So this is my second truck after the Grand Hauler.

The Arocs tipper, with actuator for rear bed and MFC-03 unit. 56357 and 56545 and MFC-03.

Came out really well, and I gave it a high level of attention to detail with multiple coats of paint and clear coat etc.

Managed to hide the cables from rear to front well too.

I put in extra indicators near bottom of doors as had some spare bulbs.

 

I also attempted to give it a full cab with dashboard and seats and nearly managed it, by cutting down the support for the MFC-03 unit and rotating the MFC unit.

However It does allow the cab to shut within a couple of centimetres, but to get it to close I would need to cut of the bottom of the dashboard quite considerably and I gave up.

So really the glass needs to be ‘smoked’ now to hide the wires.

 

It’s the most intense kit I have done, even more so than the tanks and previous truck due to amount of cable and lack of good instruction, but looks awesome now and the paint really pops.

 

Now its for sale in the usual places so I can move on to the next project

Cheers

Russ

Great-looking rig.  Such a shame the MFC won't fit under the dash, but with enough ingenuity anything can be achieved
