Mini crawler drinking game , every time you have to back up take a drink lol if you flip take a shot 😂

Its a great idea for an obstacle so kudos to you on that. Unfortunealtly an unneccessary environmental disaster. No need to buy all those chemicals to do this. It can easily be done with trash. Cardboard, foam packing materials, dilluted white glue and dirt and diluted acrylic paint washes. Other than the glue and some of the paint it can be done completely with recycled materials.

Yeah I’ve built a couple courses with recycled materials since this video and they turn out just as good 👍🏻

i commented on another vieo asking for a rock course tutorial. i want aware that this video was already out lol. thanks👍

You are a true artist at this! What a change from Video #1. I'm following to see what's next. Mine looks nothing like it. LOL

Love this, thanks for sharing. I just got my first RC, it’s an 1/43 scale and I plan on using this method to create something similar. I was going to use plaster sheets at first, but foam is the way to go after watching this.

Glad it was helpful! Plaster cloth sheets work great too for making mini crawler courses, I’ve used them in the past but my personal preference is foam 😄👍🏻

Great paint work and color

Has been awesome watching the series. Not sure what everyone else thinks, but I really like the in depth videos that show all the steps, so don't worry about 5 videos long or even more? It'd be cool to see how you add the Moss and little details in another video also. Thanks for sharing again and I'm very glad your channel is growing😁 keep up the good work!!

50/50 white glue and water brush it on then throw sand an dirt on it

Perfect size to bring to my work office. Always finding plenty of foam sticking out of neighbors trash. Great idea.

This build reminds me of the Flintstone's house!!! Awesome!!!!

I really enjoyed this series, I am going to do a hill climb out of an old little tykes slide. It would be cool yo do this at the top.

I'm in Longview,Wa. Starting our crawler course tomorrow. Thanks for the tips!

Cool 😎 course.. Great idea 💡 making that tunnel.. Stop being so ingenious

Thanks a bunch! Gives me some ideas. Really appreciate you making the effort to show how to build it step by step.

I used to build mountains and terrain for my HO train sets using chicken wire and paper mache. I'm starting to work on an outdoor crawl place, mostly for my 1/10th scale trucks, but with some sections suitable for 1/24th scale. I'm collecting rocks for it and with flood season coming up I should be able to pick up a few bags of sand pretty easy.

That definitely was a lot of work , but I like it ,, for as small as it is there is a lot going on .... and you made me honestly laugh out loud when you held up your original drawing and said " nailed it " that was as funny as it gets ....

Awesome Job my friend ... Cheers from Calgary AB Canada, enjoyed all 5 .. gave me some inspiration for mine!

Very cool. Definitely inspiring me to do something like this.

Awesome course I just had surgery Thursday and will be home recovering. I already built a 4X8 plywood/foamcardboard etc 1/24-1/18 scale course using whatever I could find. Laid it out with design. Then covered it in plaster cloth . Haven’t tried lifting it but I’m guessing 2-3 heavier than your Amazing foam course!!! So thank you for inspiring me to build/design a foam course while I’m recovering. Should be very light and I have a 4x4 piece of cardboard that I acquired today. So I’ll be starting mine tomorrow!!! Awesome course great job.

Stone paint looks great. Do you find it too grippy? Or bad for the tires?

@UpperLeftRC

2 жыл бұрын

Nah it turned out okay, a lot of it got soaked up by the foam so it seemed to work well on tires 😄👍🏻

Was that a white primer you used? I've been experimenting with different colors pallets, I found a rust brown or grey base works well. Also shooting the paint from different angles and distances with different colors adds to the effect! I've got a new obstacles build video coming out soon.

Correct lol

Out of curiosity about how many cans of great stuff and loctite did you use to make this scape? And about how big Lxw is it? I really like what you did and I was just trying to consider witch is cheaper to build with cloth or foam. I am trying to build a track like this vs the natural ones I like building because sometimes I want to move the track and using sand, dirt, and rock, is so heavy to move. I have to say you made this look to easy lol.

@UpperLeftRC

3 жыл бұрын

Thank you, it wasn’t that easy but time lapse helps hide the frustration lol I used 8 cans of great stuff expanding foam at $5.73 a can plus Tax at Home Depot, the course is super light and very maneuverable and that’s what I really like about the foam courses, I have also made plaster cloth courses but I find the foam ones are the easiest because you can essentially build a block of foam and carve away the obstacles you want and down the road I can carve even more and repaint it if I want to change it up 😄👍🏻

In total it was about $60-$70 the way I did it, the 2foot by 4foot board was $7 the spray foam is $4.50 a can and I used 8 of them plus the spray paint. But if you use less spray foam or filler stuff like cardboard under the foam then you don’t need to spend as much 😄👍🏻
