"Budget Bug" decals for Sand Scorcher, etc 10 years 7 months ago #25183

Gloves, seat backs, belts & map done ... had a cunning plan there, I just printed out a bit of a map of Baja California & folded it the same way as the bit of styrene in the interior...








Helmets done & 4 varieties of black to finish the interior...










Quickly made up a bumper ... probably should have gone a bit slower on the drilling ...








Exhaust fitted....

The window netting I'd made turned out to be far too thick & chunky ... I've bought some Super Champ style netting, but I didn't want to wait before "finishing" this build :lol:

I don't like the wheelarch liners (especially the front ones) so I might reduce or remove them.

IDK about that :whistle: ... but I did think making the rear cage additions part of the interior cage & held in by compression was an elegant solution ;)

Seriously though, this is really basic, chunky stuff compared to some builds out there - the tin foil scaler body & peeps making 100% accurate engines as 1/32 scale come to mind :blink:

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem mate :)

My thoughts exactly. Needs some dirt spraying up the sides. Lovely work nonetheless. :y:
