Well Recently I recieved a Tmaxx in a trade from a member here on the board..
Not really into nitro but overall the truck seemed good enough to start a project with, decided to go the Electric Route with the Maxx..
Ordered a body off of Ebay... RC Boys is a great place..LOL
The body is a Proline Silverado Crew Cab.. And now is custom painted..
Colors used are as follows..
Blue Silver Pearl.
Candy Blue Metalic.
Black Metalic.
Black Pearl.
Candy Red pearl
Metalic Red
Flourecent Yellow
White
White Pearl
Deep Blue Metalic
Dark Grey.
True Green.
Still need to back the colors on the body but you get the idea.
Using Custom Masks, Masking Tape, Liquid Mask, and my thumb and index finger as Templates..to get different shapes and designs..HEHE
On each side of the body are custom airbrushed Grim Reapers, with Mountains, moon, Headstones, Dark Green and light green rolling hills and light mist..
On the Bed a Chevy emblem and rough pattern bed cover had to be delt with... Using the emblem, Created a Full size Grim Reaper with a Hand holding the Emblem up in front of his face. Because of this, and the other designs laid out the name:
DEATH'S DESIGN came out....
Finally adding Mad Armour Wheels and Cut USA-1 Tires with MGT Foams made the truck look better..
Soon it will be getting the Emaxx Tranni, Custom Aluminum parts here and there, and possibly New Shocks soon..
Ordered a full bearing kit and that will be the first priority before stepping into a larger section of the build..
So far the Paint Time is about 28 hours of work..
What do you think so far?
