New Project on the bench.. 😎

[CertifiedMike]

That body has a cool classic look!
I'm digging the black highlights.
I can't wait to see this all done!

Alright, alriiiiiiiight-two more, but that’s all until the Sharpie is put away…

Or was that’s that three more…

I really like it.. Should look sick on a certain Comp Fox build.. I’m just over here wingin’ it..

Bro...

Bro...

Thanks brother!!! Keep in mind-this is just “rough draft” Sharpie guide lines… Final result will be a LOT cleaner with #16 X-acto lines..

Aight-back to work… I’ll never get any ice cream at this rate..

that looks so cool

 

[TeknoJ]

Patches O’Hullihan!? Looks good, that’s a lot of detail. That would take me an eternity to cut out.

 

[Doom!]

SWEET!

 

[WickedFog]

Uh oh. Shiit just got real. That is gonna look sick!

 

[paytonimusrex]

I need to watch a video on liquid mask to understand how it works tempted to use it on this new car or just pay some one

 

[Littlemotor]

Thanks

Uh oh. Shiit just got real. That is gonna look sick!

Thanks brotha! I swear there just aren’t enough hours in the day! if it turns out just half as sick as I’m hoping, and it’s hinting toward, I’ll be stoked af!

 

[CertifiedMike]

Literally JUST put down the Sharpie..

@Doom!

A few more…

Keep in mind these Sharpie lines only purpose are to let me know where I’m cutting, and do NOT translate well (unless you’re in my head, or happen to think the exact same way artistically as I do ) to the perceived finished product in paint/color/etc.. So the Shark Mouth, and eye will appear strange at this stage-not to worry; I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.. Some other lines aren’t exact due to certain imperfections/irregularities that just flat out happen in the forming process. This particular body has a LOT going on, so some things are strictly “guidelines” for me during the knifework, and some have nothing to do with a painted “line”. I may very well make a revision or two along the way-but this is very, very close to what I was looking for initial graphics layout wise. This body is also quite thin being MonTech want their crawler bodies as light as possible for CG reasons.. I’ll be taking extra care that would otherwise not be as crucial for a 1/8 buggy/truggy lid..

All that being said-I’m pretty damned happy with it thus far, and cannot wait to get started. This one is gonna take a bit of time for sure. I vow not to partake in any ice cream from here on out until completion.
