Surfin' season may be over... even though, let me show you my newest bit of modding stuff I just finished.

body by raceleg (again)
CRW-alurims (handmade by a dude of www.rc-micro.de)
selfmade decals (Quicksilver, Burton, Speck, Calvin&Hobbes, licence plate surfboard, VW-Logo on spare tire)
airbrush paintjob
spare tire mounted with a thumbtack
rack on the roof made from 1mm-welding rod
travelbags from a revell-kit, painted to be looking old
surfboard airbrushed and tribal-decal
cables on the roof are electrowires
jerrycan on platform from the same revell-kit
driver handpainted
inside of the car is real wood
exhaust pipe made from a wire-end sleeve
microlamps (1,5V, no LEDs) on front and rear are soldered to the motorcontacts, so they light up when driving

Hope y'all like it.

Awwesome! Best new bit mod I've seen in a year.

That turned out super nice. I haven't really seen any new bit mods in a while, so thanks for the inspiration..


And I'm lovin the alloy wheels..

Sweet! That looks excellent!

With so many cool details, it seems almost silly to say, my favorite part is the Calvin and Hobbes.

That is really cool it would go faster if you put it on the table instead of the pencils.

we haven't had a lot of mods lately have we? i would suggest an end of the year contest...but if we did, I think we'd already have the winner.

I'm loving this thing as well. Especially the rims.....

Looks good.

this is too cool - makes me feel like a slacker for not doing any new micros in the last year...

yeaaaa! bit again. love the details!

Thanks for all replies. Happy you like it. Get to work dudes, I'd love to see some more bitstuff around here again... I'm working on a fully proportional bit at the moment. So there's more to come soon anyway!

me too.....

Anybody else think that really needs a custom Two-tone ZZ Beetle sitting next to it?

You guys are all slackers! Or else I've done too many this year, I post a new ride and people go "Eh, it's yet another Frizzen ride"

It should be an old-school bug on the Herbie ZZ, but this was all there was when I did it. it's at the beach anyway.
