Dave B Universal Carrier

Post by Dave Backway »

Hi All,

It's been a while since I last posted on the forum but now almost completed the Universal Carrier. Just have some more detailing, straps and accessories to complete and possibly my old nemesis, weathering.

Lovely Universal Carrier Dave. Is it a static or RC model?

Hi Phil,

It is RC, just need to get the battery, but will wait until completed.

Cheers,

Dave

Hi All,

As away of an update, added some accessories but still need to weather the carrier itself, any pointers on how to do this as after spending a long time getting to this stage I'm worried about messing up with the weathering.

Regards,

Dave

Really nice, weathering can be a bit of a nightmare, too much, too little very hard to get it right.
I'd run it around a bit collect and few splashes of dirt. 8)
