The master at work! True artist. Chris once again proving that one can in fact polish a turd! This man could have 1,000,000 subscribers and still not be getting the recognition he deserves. And the modesty… true gentleman. Congratulations on nearing 100,000 brother! Keep up the great work! Thanks for all you do.
Very nice job. Have you tried using Tamiya - Polycarbonate Cleaner - to REMOVE dried paint? It leaves the clear lexan gloss, but you have to be careful where it ends....it will also remove the green, so you can mask and area and then start removing paint. I wonder it it works on Axial paint.
Been doing alot of research to get inspiration to my build. Nice work. Really nice. Now the tricky part. Trying to find PS paint in Norway that is in stock, and not too far away.
Such a huge difference just by adding a few mods to it, but HemiMods tho. Great work Chris as always, we can learn a lot from your vids as well. Thanks for sharing! ✌️
I love any tips I can get that help make me a better painter. If anybody claims they know it all I wouldn’t give them two seconds of my time. Love your channel
Next cheap mods will be 3d printed parts I guess? Just the front headlights would make it good enough to give it a finished look, the other small parts like wipers and handles are maybe not so much needed now that you have decorated the side, but I guess you'll put them on while you're at it. Yes with a few mods the body is looking way better than the stock form, and a touch of paint always helps. Black lining the outer parts is a great idea, and I've been leaving it aside for quite a while now, but will do it on my ecto to break that all yellow color. I also painted the inside of my ecto black, which helped change the tone of the yellow and it's not so bright anymore and looks better for my taste. A trick I learned for the lining from Gundam is to score the lines for example the door lines with the back of the exacto knife to give it just a little more depth and help the very runny paint flow and settle nice and easy in the groove. Good job making the body not so ugly anymore!
I have done this on my TRX4 Defender with the awful stickered windows. The hardest thing in this whole area imo is finding a decent driver figure who is not an X man or some other comic book character - and the right scale... We really need a ~1/9 scale figure for our crawlers and they just don't exist :(
- I bought my "1/9th scale figure, at DollarTree, for $1.00, back - about 9-months ago, - before they now just raised the price on all items to a $1.25 ! 😫 Rates, bro !!!😆👍 - I call him Mr. Mullet, (cuz he has a mullet), and he is well made, for just a "buck" !!! He is black & silver (clothes). Plus, he has a mean expression on his face !!!! 😆🤣🤭... He fits perfectly in the older AXIAL "CORBEAU" SEATS, which are made of solid plastic. Mr. Mullet, stands at exactly (5.5" TALL)...(2.0" at his shoulders/arms), and I "still think" - "HE MIGHT BE A "LITTLE BIT"- SMALL" !! 🔎...🤔 - IF YOU CANNOT FIND ONE, or do not have access to a DollarTree... - I suggest buying/ordering a (very realistic-looking) "WALKING DEAD"... ...FIGURE, THEY COME WITH ACCESSORIES, & THERE ARE A FEW "GOOD-QUALITY" MAKERS, OF THESE FIGURES, - [BUT, THEY WILL BE THAT -("A BIT BIGGER-SIZE")...WHICH MOST PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR, - FOR THEIR "SCALE CRAWLER" !!!! 😉👌🤘😎 - I hope this helps !!! 💪🇺🇸
@@hemistormrc Yes the wrestlers, me too! I was contemplating designing a good figure - one with removable "slices" of lower back and top of the back of the legs - specifically for sitting in RC car seats - so they look like they sit in the seat rather than awkwardly on top of it. The fact your reckon it might be popular means perhaps I should give it more thought!
I would like to know if you would know where to get T-BONE Racing Products, I'm looking for a front bumper for my Arrma Senton 3s 4x4, I broke the bumper in my first drive.

Chris is using stickers, Josh is painting a body.. the whole world is upside down! 😂
Sounds about right
😂
really pops now, even a pre-painted rtr lexan is satisfying to watch the master lay down some style 😎
The world is changing.
Lmfaooooo. Sooo sooo true 😂
Pretty amazing what a little time and elbow grease can accomplish! Thanks for sharing this one, Chris!
Thanks Matt! A bit of effort goes a real long way. 😄
Amazing transformation! Axial needs you to consult on future projects!

Always makes me smile how the phone not being muted 🔕 has Evolved into such an awesome running joke 🤣🤣
Always a good time ✨ and inspiring 🌈
Appreciate the videos....you always give us great tips. I used wd40 spray to remove the paint on my Defender windows...it worked great for me
That’s a good tip, will have to try that!
How long did u let it sit on there for?
Looking pretty good. Just shows the possibilities are out there👍
Thanks! Keeping it simple can be rewarding.
Very nice Chris! Keep it simple and make it pop 😁
Thanks Brad! Just a few alterations to make it look slightly different from stock.
Excellent work as usual and not expensive so something everyone can try. I hope someday a major manufacturer hires you as a body consultant

Thank you again for another great video. I really do enjoy learning from you and your talent!
Looks Great of course! You make it look easy. Thanks for the Video.
Every time I watch your videos, I learn something new. BEST RC CHANNEL E V E R! Thanks Hemi.
I love any tips I can get that help make me a better painter. If anybody claims they know it all I wouldn’t give them two seconds of my time. Love your channel
Always taking it up a notch! Love it!
looks great!
Thanks Serge!
Nice one Hemi! 🙌💪
Well done Chris !!! Hard to believe that ur viewers would give you crap about the wheels hitting the body to me they will eventually self clear …lol

Looks good sticker shock yes
Thanks!
You can also add graffiti remover to the list of chemical's that can be used 👍
Nice work ,made that look alot better than stock
Thanks a bunch, Adam! 😃
@@hemistormrc your welcome 😁you always do great work
great paint job
Glad you like it, simple yet effective. 😄👍🏼
@@hemistormrc 😁👍
big improvement on stock dude
I like what you did with it.
Big improvement 👍
nice little truck, thanks
Nice and simple. 👍
You love stickers!! 🤣
In this case I’ll happily make an exception, hahaha! Thanks for watching!
@@hemistormrc ALWAYS!
always dead on the money with the timing,
saved a lot of people $70
Brilliant...
I still left a like on the video, even though you put stickers on the body. I hate stickers!!
I’m no fan either, haha! Saving my cans for another project.
Think that’s the first time I ever seen you use stickers 😳😳
Is there a somewhat decent priced way to put dig in it? Or would you be better off buying a version with dig in it.
Hasem jadi keren gini..!!!!

I think there would be a huge market for some realistic shaped figures. I hate the wrestlers and such, it’s played out and looks horrible.

Nice job.... what about just cutting the windows out and replacing them ?
I would like to know if you would know where to get T-BONE Racing Products, I'm looking for a front bumper for my Arrma Senton 3s 4x4, I broke the bumper in my first drive.
👍👍👍👍👍
Lol, $400 US is not budget friendly! 😜. Great job tho. What is that back cage part number?
Wish Axial had just offered a clear body option.
I’m sure a kit is in the works. 👍🏼
Why did axial this. 2022 and Window stickers🤦
Mostly transparent windows yes. Clear, not so much.
As explained in the video, no desire to fully clear them as I’m not planning to run an interior. Thanks for watching!
This body is boring and plain, that’s the best part about it. You don’t want to drag a pretty truck across the rocks
Body don't like it at all!
Parody of trx4 sports.
To replace it immediately!
!!! Just super creepy!!!
Тo be replaced urgently!!!
