1/35 Unimog Project

I.... just nut my pants.

Awesome! I think I have to check my pants(sarcastically). Lol. Are the tires plastic? I love the looks of this build!

Thanks guys! I really appreciate all the comments!

@ xmodracer - The tires are rubber - Solid but soft enough to provide grip on most surfaces.

I finally got almost everything done - I added the other details, painted all those parts that needed to be painted and I added the decals for it - i'm using the Koniglich Belgische Armee '04 look for this one. The only thing left to do is for me to make some custom side mirrors because the originals are too fragile, then I have to make a custom mount piece for the bad cargo cover - it will be held on by Velco so that it's easy to remove for any electronic repairs.

Here's the new pics and a short video just so that youc an see that it works:










And here's a short clip of it in action:



I'll post the last update and maybe another short video of it as soon as i'm completed with the final things to do.
Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more!

That is pretty darn cool. Nice paint job all around. Does that thing have any articulation? Just wondering. Keep it up the awesome work. Like to see the very final results.

edit: another Q, Where did you buy those gears to make the gearbox? (pinion and the worm gears)

i don't know how you do it...it looks great with all the little decals, what kind of paint did you use to make the tires a bit brown?

wow was not expecting it to be finished so fast, looks great, now all it needs is a 4wheel drive mod and it will be done!

[snowboi1289]

Your already finished,****!!!!!!
You started like a week or a couple days ago right ?? Looks like your getting better,hold on,your like the best,I don't think you can get better..
Your like a good icon for some low modders thast wanna be a good modder.

Looks really nice,but it could go a lil faster with a slight higher performance servo,but hey its pretty nice...

Thanks dude. The rear and the front both have alittle articulation. The gear are from misc. cheap toys that I broke apart while experimanting on them -lol.

Thanks dude, the paint is just Tamiya flat brown paint and another light sand color also.

Thanks dude, I did work on this quickly indeed - as for the 4WD system I might do that later - it's gonna stay as is for now.

LOL - this one didn't take up too much time as I thought it would, it came out ok imo. The gear box just needs a different set of gears to make it faster so i'll be changing those as soon as i can find a good set of them.

LOL - I think it's cute and alittle kick-arse at the same time .


Here's a few updated pics and a short video of it all in one:



Just incase you guys wanted to see the real 1:1 Unimog with the same paint scheme - here's the pic of it:




I'll probably put this one aside for now until I can work out a 4x4 system for it, but until then I hope you guys enjoyed it. Thanks for watching guys,
