Tamiya Dynastorm/211X replica

[fathead]

Picked up a Dynastorm the other day (currently in transit to me) so I can use it to base my TRF211X replica on.

Progress will be slow as I will just fit this in between other peoples projects but I will post up updates as they happen over the coming months.

I will be replacing all the breakables with remade cnc parts probably in delrin, plus any other period style modifications, mostly for durability for racing

As always this just started off simple with me looking at doing an Astute........








Also picked up a set of Dynastorm shock bodies, I'm still undecided whether I will de-anodise these and use them or just use them as a template and turn up some bespoke bodies/caps, it seems that the 211X had slightly longer bodies than the Dynastorm, also the 211X ones weren't sleeved.
