Ok, as I couldn't start to paint the MaxxPro, I decided to start this little and funny thing:   For now, I don't know if I'll build the Spanish version (plain green, with more lights and an MG) or the Italian one (3 tone and unarmed) As far as I can see, the little wheels fits only to the Italian or French versions, but as I won't concerned about that, I'm still thinking to build the Spanish one (i don't have a single Spanish vehicle in my collection). The details looks very good (even on the far simple interior) and I think it'll be a fast build. Lets see. More on this thing soon. |

Hi mate! Welcome on board! The problem here is: 40 wheels, 4 really tight tracks, 40 really thin suspension arms that probably will broken after install the tracks  |

Hi muckers! Welcome on board. I really thought that this little guy probably keep your attention, because I never saw one of them built.
And I decided: Despite the wrong wheels, I'll build it in Spanish livery.

Hi! I started to build the wide tracks thing. Half of suspensions, the front module interior and the rear module main structure are done.   Here you can see how thin are the suspension arms, I'm thinking about how to reinforced some of then without break the original shape. Suggestions are really welcome. The tracks are the "villain" but looks very good and glues perfectly with normal plastic cement. Here the (good) front module interior:    The BIG problem here was the BIG Takom logo and codes on the upper part. The solution I used was awful but enough to hide it a bit. And finally the rear module, plenty of EPMs, but with a good fit (as the rest of the parts I built so far)   Here we have the Takom's marks either, but they was easy to remove because the upper hull is almost flat. This interior is far simple, with 8 folded seats. I'm thinking make one entire side unfolded, I still don't know ir that's possible. Pics of the front module with its suspension:   That's all for now. Hope you liked. ACC&?W |
