TechnicRCRacer Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) VIDEO: Current Version: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Old Post: Hi! I have decided to enter the TC13 contest and here is my entry so far: It has suspension on both axles and a working V4 engine. It looks a little funky right now, but I am thinking of how to change the front for the better. It has the modern pullback motor in the back. Please give me any advice you have.

Leonardo da Bricki Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 For some reason, I am reminded of a Polaris 4x4... I'm amazed at how well the color palette works. As for the looks, I think raising the V-4 so it sticks up and maybe raising the roof a stud or two would help a lot. Quote

Jurss Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Looks interesting. I would replace those dishes with those smaller lights and move them closer to body. Quote
BrickbyBrickTechnic Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Looks very nice! The size is definitely a plus Quote
