Learn how to paint your own custom RC body shell with this step by step how to video, let me walk you through painting your first RC body shell as he paints up a new 1/10 Ford Raptor 2017 for his 1/10 RC Hobby Grade TRX4 Defender chassis.
Tamiya paints used:
Metallic Orange: PS-61
Flat Black: TS-6
This is a customized 1/10 Hobby Grade Scale RC Crawler that uses a PROLINE Ford Raptor 2017 body shell. The main chassis is a Traxxas TRX4 from Defender. It uses customized tires, rims and bumpers.
As much as possible, I tried to recreate the real FORD Raptor 2017 with a touch of offroad style and my style. Painted using Tamiya Spray paints, I chose the combination of Metallic Orange as primary colour and Flat black as secondary colour. I also applied decals to mimic the real Ford Raptor.
I hope you enjoyed watching the video!
What is a crawler car?
In rock crawling, drivers typically drive highly modified four-wheel-drive vehicles such as trucks, Jeeps, and "buggies" over very harsh terrain. Driving locations include boulders, mountain foothills, rock piles, mountain trails, etc.
TRX4 Defender in action, watch this!
• RC Car that looks so R...

That is one of the nicest RC paint jobs on UKposts, well done! I'm going to shamelessly steal your tips to do my 1/10 Tacoma body in a solid color with flat black highlights as well.

Very nice. I also had the same body but different color. For the black trims and bed, I masked and painted from the inside. To achieve the flat finish, I cut on the protective film around the black areas and painted with Tamiya flat clear.

Nicely done! I just got the same body and am looking to replicate your process. Thank you so much for sharing. One question though, when you get to the black, do you think it would have been easier to just x-zacto knife the overspray film on the parts you wanted to paint black and then just spray the whole thing black? This is the only thing I am considering on changing from your video and just wanted to reach out to see what your thoughts were.
@hubbyhobbyPH
@hubbyhobbyPH Рік тому
What you said would have been easier, but you must also make sure that you don't damage the body shell and the film is firmly applied to the body during painting. I prefer to do the masking myself because it is easier to see if there are adjustments needed and fix.

Just a couple of questions because I'm new to rc's. 1: Is there a specific kind if soap younise before masking the windows? 2: do you have to use a damp cloth to rinse away the excess soap on the body before drying it, or do you just give it a wipe with a dry cloth?
@hubbyhobbyPH
@hubbyhobbyPH 7 місяців тому
To answer your questions: 1. Any will do but I suggest to use a dishwashing soap. 2. Yes. You can use damp cloth, it's much faster to clean that way.

@anub1s15 11 місяців тому
my main concerns would be either that or it just chipping/flaking off when the body flexes. any update on how that held up over time because that's very interesting (recently built a 97 celica monte carlo body and it's stickers were just a nightmare, planning to build another but not sure if I should paint the livery in to the body as the PS paint doesn't seem to leave the cleanest outlines or perhaps apply something like this to the outside which would definitely be easier but aforementioned concerns)
