David Walker Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 That's simply amazing work on the gear legs. That should add a lot to the appearance of your build. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OKB Krasnaya Zvezda Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 Jan: when I was born the doctor said: "ma´am sorry your kid born with 3 legs... hum ho no sorry it´s just a boy" :D thank you guys for your comments I really apreciate that. now here´s a lil advance due to some dutys I had to do. This time I had to deal with tires cos I think they are over sized because front LG ones are too narrow and small, and the rear LG wheels are different in size one of each other. Some pics: after filling and painting I decided to sanding the simulated weight with a 100 grid sandpaper and a rule. But I think I over sanded the wheels :o Now I had to fill that gap with Squadron filler + Qutex And after all that I would like to know your opinion about the simulated weight what do you think guys? thanx in advance!
