I’ve painted plenty of bodies and I know how it feels when you get done and feel like scrapping the whole thing and starting over! But when you get it right it feels that much better! Great video!
My man Bris…. I was wondering where you’ve been. Glad you dropped another just now as I’m taking lunch at work and it was the perfect escape to relax and watch you go at it again. And I must say that job you just did on the baby Mojave is…….. TIGHT!!!! Nice work and great scheme on the paint job n stickers. Have a nice day for the remainder buddy. 👍🏻
😳SWEET🤩!! Nice job dude,that looks awesome! I wish I’d had some of that overspray film on a couple paint jobs I did,the overspray was almost thicker than where I wanted the paint 😅
Pfiou looks great! Learn a lot in this quick video like the PS53 spark rendering effect (see some pictures but much better in your video). The dish soap too, very impressive and amazing rendering. Definitly subscribe to your channel and thumb up of course. Cheers from France! 😊
New to your channel. I have a few questions for you, but want to shout out to you first. I really appreciate your attitude. The way you talk and chuckle is very endearing. You handle yourself in a way that lends itself to some random stranger feeling like they can immediate;y trust you. That personality comes out in your videos and I wanted to point that out. Aka, thank you for what you do. Now my questions (problems?). I am torn, so damn torn, between wanting a Reflex or a Grom. I currently have a Senton 3s and love it! But, it is too big for traveling with. I am headed on a trip across the country this winter and want to bring my RC with me, but it needs to be smaller. I have a Losi Mini Jrx2, but not looking to bring that with me as I am a very bad driver, and need 4wd to really have fun. It also feels a bit too small. So, the 1/14 Reflex or the larger Groms (Mojave and Typhon) feel like they are about the right size. Years ago, I used to have an Associated TC3 and the size of that car is about what I am looking to emulate (size AND scale realism), but to have something that is capable with a bit of gravel/offroad added to it. The length, width, and wheel base of the TC2 is pretty closely mimicked by these two rigs. ===== I love the recently released kit version of the Reflex as I would love to build my own. Associated Factory Team Blue is a big turn on for me. I love the way the Mojave Grom LOOKS. It resembles my Senton. I love the scale "look" of RCs and that is something I consider when buying one. I am a bit of an Associated Fanboi, as Associated was my first rig way back in the early 90s. It was a used and heavily modified original RC10 that was converted into a dirt oval racer. I want a top speed of about 35-40 mph. No need to go faster as I already stated I am a bad driver. However, that means going brushless with either rig. I want to be about $250, or less, all in too. I already have a extra receiver and radio, but would need to buy a motor and ESC and battery, assuming the rig I buy doesn't come with them. ===== After watching this video, I began to think... What about a Reflex with the Arrma Mojave Grom body on it? Would that actually work? Help me out and help me decide what to do please!!! I guess my TL:DR version of this is... since you own the Reflex and the Mojave Grom, can you quickly take a looksie and see if my idea would actually work? Basically, can I get a Reflex, and transform it into a Mojave Grom look-alike, with brushless power, for $250 or less? (Disabled vet living on a fixed income so I can't afford "both" rigs)
Thanks for this, and for your service 🫡. To answer your question, the Typhon Grom body will not work on the more squared chassis of the Reflex 14b. If I had to pick one, it would be the Reflex 14b, which comes brushless out of the box. All it needs to hit 35-40 is a $25 esc swap and maybe a 3s battery, which I've shown in other videos. EOD, I would go Mojave Grom (with the 70-90 odd bucks in upgrades I did) all day for a great rig that also fits in the pocket. Hope this helps!
I'm doing that dish wash detergent style paint job. I'm in Japan for work atm and it's crazy cheap especially for hop ups and Tamiya paint pitty I can't take that home. I have 2 shopping bags full and brought a rare green Grasshopper for 65AUD bargain and was the last one at Super Rajikon in Tokyo.
I have all three groms and i just finished airbrushing a typhon grom body with a blue chameleon color on the body and an orange chameleon stripe on top from front to back and in the sun, the way the paint changes color is sick. thanks for sharing.
You LIAR it's soooo difficult Lol I over think everything art. Plus you're painting in revers so there's that. I've done some body's my self that did pretty good. Great job dude!
Could be, especially if you're bashing a lot. But remember, silver may change the shades a bit. If I'd gone with lighter (mist) coats of the green, then hit it with silver, it would be much brighter.
What an awesome result.!! I'm definitely going to try the dish soap technique a go.! Thanks mate, please stay safe out there & the very best wishes from Scotland 🏴 🙏 ❤️ 📻 🕹️ 🔋 🚗 🚖 🚕 🚔 🚚 🚙 🚘 🚓 🚒 🚑 🚐 🚎 🚤 🚁 🛩️ 👍 👍 👍
That paint job is killer. I never realized how easy it is. Thanks for the tutorial.
Thanks 😁
Thx for the tutorial! And the recomendation for stronger fan

Nice paint my brutha, glad to see another person creativity on these guys.. dish liquid is genius. I subb'd..
Thanks mane, yours look tight as well. I had those wheels and didn't even think of throwing them on the Grom 😅
Awesome paint job 👏.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks bro 🙏
Wow… that really turned out awesome! Looks like you could have a good side hustle
🤔😄
I think your canopy is so much nicer than the actual Arrma ones. Good job bro excellent 😊
Thanks 😊
Looks awesome. I'm getting a few groms so I can do a lot of custom work. Definitely made this look easier than I thought.
That's a c'mon son, coming from MacGyver 😂
Absolutely awesomeness loved it you made it look so simple.
Thanks 😁
That paint came out sick! Makes me want to paint my custom built boost Vorteks and my Mojave Grom.
👍
Do it! 😁

You LIAR it's soooo difficult Lol I over think everything art. Plus you're painting in revers so there's that. I've done some body's my self that did pretty good. Great job dude!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I've also painted a few over the years but I have to say it looks great! You nailed it!✅️
@diggy2107 thanks dig!
On point ‼️🔥✔️
💯
Do you think it's a good idea to hit it with some silver after everything else just to protect such a great paint job? Or no?
Could be, especially if you're bashing a lot. But remember, silver may change the shades a bit. If I'd gone with lighter (mist) coats of the green, then hit it with silver, it would be much brighter.
What an awesome result.!!
I'm definitely going to try the dish soap technique a go.!
