Hello all, here are pics of one of my projects which I started back in March.

DF-01 Hybrid buggy.

I started out with this Manta Ray!



stripped and cleaned




Picked up these decals




And this body, trimmed and washed and ready for paint.



Painted. PS-23



Got hold of a Terra Conqueror :)




And these wheels.





After lots of cleaning :)


After lots of scrubbing!


Rebuilt the best bits of both cars, full ball-bearings etc and fitted DynaTech





Latest pics!

I have to say that spaceship looking buggies are not my bag at all - but that is a very nicely done bit of work :)
