It hasnt been that long ago that I finished painting and fitting a Notorious body to my Big Rock, and I am still trying to be patient and not use it until I shoe goo it due to time into it. I had a JConcepts “Creep” body (meant for crawlers) that I had picked up for a Losi LMT roller project, only to find out its a little too narrow.
With the pending Hurricane Ida this weekend, it damped our other plans, so I got bored and painted this up with some Tamiya TS-5 Olive Drab. I thought Id also try my hand at a “real steel” effect, and I also wanted the Olive Drab to be dull looking. So I pealed the protection plastic off, drilled the post holes and cut the body, cleaned and scuffed both inside and out of the body, masked the windows and the bed, shot the outside with the Olive Drab, shot the inside of the bed and windows with “tinting” paint, and painted the rest of the inside of the body with silver metallic from Spaz Stix.
The only thing Im not happy with is the silver slightly tinted the bed and the windows more than I wanted, meaning I should have masked them and tinted them after the silver...Oh well.
Anyway, hope you enjoy it, as it is another body we can claim fits the Big Rock, and actually fits it very well.
Here is what its intended to fit on;
Thru a flash light in the battery tray lol
