Asguard body mounts

[Clubin]

Here is what I did to fit my Asguard body. I originally bought it for my MCD, but it will fir fine on my Redcat so here it goes. I has to open up the wheel wells a bit so the wheels would clear, other than that, one set of MCD body mounts.

I like that Asgard body. Nice work on the mounts. What color are you painting her? And is that a Baja filter?

Yes that is a Baja air filter, nothing but the best.


As for the paint, you will have to wait, you will not be dissapointed.

How much do those bodies cost? Are you going to airbrush that one? Looking good so far.

It will not work with the Stock body mounts, I used MCD body mounts, and made up some aluminum extentions. Worked real good. I should have time to paint it tomorrow.

I got an air compressor for Christmas that will handle a airbrush then picked up a Iwata Revolution airbrush a few weeks ago. Haven't had a chance to get the paint yet But soon. I'm going to be using createx paints. I have a great layout scheme for mine which I don't have as of yet. Don't know how it will turnout for my first time but we'll see.


Can't wait to see what you do with the body scheme Clayton.

Rob do you have pics of your ascard body set up?


Clubin it's looking good.... is the body thick like fg bodies? I've been thinking out getting one cos I know my redcat one is not going to last long...i got a clear one to paint also but that won't last long either I'm sure.


Got the heat gun to the one I melted last weekend...bit of body shaping...it worked out ok.

THis body is manufactured by ATOMIC it is a thin compared to the FG body, I think it should last, time will tell.

What kind of paint do you use??


Well if two of you use the same airbrush then I must of brought the right one. A guy I know said I should of gotten a cheaper one and used tht then use the Iwata to see how great a airbrush it is.

Faskolor is all I use and have ever used, once I am done painting I seal with Faskoat, it is like a rubberized fuel safe coating.


I never buy cheap, when you buy cheap, you get cheap.
