    At first I thought: "Why change anything?" After watching the video, I believe you were spot on. It looks amazing! Fabulous work which demonstrates how great this hobby is. It is so much more than driving / racing. Thank you Glenn. Loving your channel.

    I was thinking before you said it the only thing I would have maybe left the box behind the driver in the sand color as on the vide the green driver and the green box kind of blend together. I am sure it looks more natural and separated in real life as cameras do struggle showing the colors and shape separations the eyes can see much better. It does look really cool and I am 100% behind you on making it your own! I am glad it turned out the way you imagined it and I know that is always a terrifying step to take as well!

    I'm trying to like it but because the tan was used in the desert, the Green would make it stand out so it comes across a little confusing. Same for the tyre writing but i'm sure like with all of your videos i'll find something that I like and do the same to mine 👍

    Looking good, Ampro Engineering has a nice front bumper you might like, Wild Willy 2 decals might give you something for the battery box that you pointed out. To bad they used silver screws instead of black. I think you were right about the green. Tires look awesome. To bad you can't cut some of the front shocks threads to lower the ride height. Again, great video, 👍👍👍👍👍

    Nice job Glenn. For the front, you could put some spacers under the front shock towers to get that stance you're looking for. Also I would of painted them green 😊 lastly all the visible screws and nuts I would paint to blend them in. There's so much potential in this cool buggy. ❤️😎

    Great vision there Glenn, the FAV is a beautiful model but what you did was inspired, I always thought the ReRe was a bit bright (for want of a better description) to be a proper Military Vehicle, it now looks fantastic, I think it's all the small details and really the wheels painted in green, really makes this car. Great job my friend 😉

Love it my only gripe would be the shiny chassis plastic might scuff up chassis parts and spray with satin black being it's going to be a shelf queen anyway. I went with the darker yellow you used seems to match the wheels better

    Looking fantastic my friend just pops more in my view your spin has really brought it to life and obviously the tyres are a big thumbs up even though I'm a massive fan of the original tyres on the fav too!
    Yeah Glenn the Tyres were made by SRB Bloke (Steve) on the TC and friggin hell the guys work is top draw! His 69 Scorcher he did was totally inspirational you will have to look that work of art up mate! If only l had 20% of the skills these guys have lol...
    I get what you were saying about the green at the back but i think the camera doesn't portray the light and shade like in real life so I personally would leave it just as it is it looks just right!
    You must be happy with that!
    One thing I would do is actually spray the silver can green yeah that's more green lol but greens good! Plus it wouldn't be overkill as doesn't affect the actual car and it's only a silver can so can always be swapped out if not too keen!
    But totally get what you've done here and you really have enhanced an already lovely expert built tamiya FAV! Love it!
    I am working on a project right now I'm watching you on my telly mate! Man so love this hobby even with your dribble in the background! Haha!

    Top drawer again. Just the extra stance of the chunky front tyres makes a world of difference. The tyre writing makes no sense at all in context of the military vehicle as you said, but it really adds as well. Over all I think a very worthy endeavour, BX or not, I see no difference adding your own spin to a car.

    Loving the new look. Those front tyres are bob on, they're the right level of aggressiveness. Would shorter bolts drop the ride height without needing the O rings?
    One gripe/suggestion/comment, I think removing that big black bumper would bring it up to the next level.

    @wayneyates700 Рік тому +1

    It definitely looks way better than before with all that baby sick brown on it 🤣 also looks more robust now 👍, that's why I always preferred the Wild One as the wheels were a slightly larger diameter. Obviously they are different buggies but very similar, just thought the Wild Ones wheels looked better scaled.👍👍

  • @tonygregg6957
    @tonygregg6957 Рік тому +1

    I think it looks great with the extra green but I'm not sure about the tyre writing. You could probably get away with a a shorter screw to replace the shock shaft but I'd probably chop the length off the end and use a die nut to re thread the shaft. Those O rings actually look like some sort of rubber mount anyway.

    @taimaishu-nao1922 Рік тому +1

    I think painting the saddle bags actually was the way to go. I get it’s an XB but leaving them unpainted in the sand colored plastic ruined the look (TAMIYA!!!). Perhaps a flat clear over it would’ve looked better but I rather like this direction more.
    Also, it’s very military. As someone who’s had to deliver parts to a few different bases, you’d be surprised that when they service vehicles, not always are the parts used the same color or even camo pattern! So don’t ever think that everything has to match because in real life, it doesn’t.

    i am not a fan of this car, not my cup of tea really, but you have made it look really great. It looks way more mean rather than looking quite comical before. you have made it look more "grown up"
