AshRC 213 Posted February 15, 2020 I’ve just bought a 54416 4x4 driver figure to go into a Bronco, but I’m a bit short on inspiration for what colours to paint him. Anyone got any photos of their driver figures? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Theres a really good guide on how to do it and surprisingly you dont have to be very neat with lines either for it to still be very effective. I posted a link to the guide in the what did you do today thread 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone got any photos of their driver figures? Not sure you want to use helmet or hats for your Bronco driver. Here's a couple of mine. This one was inspired by Tom Wopat's classic clothes: And if you happen to be up for something different check this link: https://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=115042&id=23692 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Juggular 4964 Posted February 25, 2020 I went nuts with painting faces a while ago... They are still on the sprues... I added shoulder pads, because even ladies had them. Nothing fancy on the uniform, though. Just some yellow lines. 8 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
