I really like the rear brake drum. Is there a diode and some watch parts?

Can you tell us how did you cut the interior of the tyres. It looks so smooth.

This model is finished two days ago. Aoshima Mitsubishi Pajero: -Lifted body from chassis by 3,2 mm -Added stuff from Tamiya mechanic set to the roof rack and build a guitar. -Added winch -Removed rear seats. Added tool box.

I started this model two years ago. Finished it in 2013. Never got to shoot finished photos. Italeri Toyota Land Cruiser: -Lifted suspension. -Changed bigger tyres and rims. -Added aftermarket turbo and fabricated exhaust pipes. -Fabricated intercooler with box to hold dry ice. -NOS bottles added -Fabricated Optima battery and fuel tank. -Changed racing seat. -Fabricated safety cage. -Other minor interior stuff.

Instant Best of Show where ever you take it. I had to triple check what was the scale here. Hard to believe that it is 1/25. Must have cost fortune, to buy all those little nuts.

Nice build. One suggestion. You could paint headlight lense edges with black sharpie. Makes them look thinner and takes away toy look.

Modern rims would suit better with the modern frame.

Nice job with the seats. Thanks for sharing your technic.

Awesome job with the engine. I would use a setup with six intakes. Angled might be needed for real estate.

I declare this one finished. It has been fun project. It gave me opporturnity to try new weathering tricks. I didn't use the machine gun. I think this will be some sort of hunting mobile. Rain flap was built from beer can and some jewelry parts. Also the chain in the front is jewelry chain, which is blackened with burnishing fluid.

Here is scratchbuild controls for the Dodge. Also tried weathering the interior. What do you think?

Thanks for sharing your pictures. I think we have same engines. I'm curious about your setup for controlling the vehicle. Would it be easier to steer the vehicle when the twin sticks were in front of the driver seat?

Is that front section painted as water droplets? It's looking very convincing.

Here is some stuff to go into the vehicle. I used Replicas and Miniatures resin guns and tools, Italeri Toyota Land Cruiser gave the 50 cal machine gun and some old gas cans and batteries.

Twin sticks might be the way to go. What else is needed besides those? Two/three pedals and gear shifter? Here is something that I was wondering for the bed. Seats for two friends and a machine gun. I also added twin batteries. Have to build tool box too.

I added rust pigments and washes to body, and then added mud. Now I am thinking what kind of controls this vehicle should have.

Tracks are from Panzer IV. Engine is now finished. Before and after weathering.

Engine will be twinturbo compound engine.

This is a project that has been looming in my mind. Finally started this. I wanted to learn new weathering trick. So far I have used MIG's rust color, chipping fluid and resedagrun.

Wonderfull project. That Allison engine is great looking. Im using same in my Fantasy Hot Rod build. It needs couple of tweaks to look good. I'll post some new pics soon.

Engine is looking crazy enough. Turbo covers are nice. How about mounting air filters above them? Also wondering if you move right side distributor to the inside of the engine block. That would make engine more symmetrical.

Nice job with that lift. Like the scratchbuilding.

Great looking transport vehicle. Very entertaining thread. Are you going to add some straps for the race car?

Here's couple of photos of test assembly and weathering. I'm going to make this car like it's been driven. What do you think about weathering so far. I'm using MIG Beach sand. Also added seats and belts.
