I have a couple of easter themed paint your own ceramic money boxes that I’ve been putting off for some time … Bugs Bunny, Bigwig from Watership Down, The Energizer Bunny, Thumper, Roger Rabbit, Hartley Hare from Pipkins, Lindt chocolate bunnies, there are many leporine models I could have used, but the consensus was to go with Peter Rabbit. There was a moulded on collar, but the rest of the jacket is simply paint. Before that I had to make a lot of corrections to the primed (?) surface, these really aren’t high quality pieces The face needs more work than the back & is nowhere near done yet. You may ask what this has to do with Tamiya, well I discarded the kit paints and used the XF & X acrylic range instead – and I just realised I’ve been channelling both the Holiday Buggy _and_ the Jun Watanabe Hornet on the egg

I gave up on the vintage Scorcher body & sold it on eBay ... I hope the new owner gets further with it than I did
I also sold my remaining 2010 Scorcher body & most of my remaining SRB spares. TBH I'm still looking at that spare "mule" chassis & the "barn find" Scorcher body/model with an eye to selling them ... I might come to regret it, but ATM I couldn't stand the thought of yet another tedious Beetle mask/paint job, I'm not interested in a box art Rough Rider, and can't think of another SRB chassis permutation ... |

I have been thinking about maybe a second hand SRB, replacement Blackfoot body, blue paint and the Ranger rere stickers from Nathaneal in Canada.......
Even used SRB's arent cheap unless they are trashed...

That's pretty much what my Ranger is - geunine chassis/wheels, re-re Blackfoot body with holes removed, supports added underneath, 3D printed F O R D letters on the hood, DIY on the tailgate, + DIY insert for the grille, MCIRacing decals tamiyabase.com/...own-ranger
