Modern day Nikko Mascot (or B4.1 in disguise)
Posted: Wed Sep 01, 2010 6:10 pm
Hi Guys,
A while ago I was trying to figure out what a certain old school car I had was. It turned out to be the Nikko Mascot. Well, the dish wheels and spiked tires I had just gotten for my B4.1 inspired me to do a body in the style of the old school "toy" that I would charge overnight, and get about 10 minutes of run time out of.
It turned out pretty good. Nice coat of black paint, then I designed the decals in illustrator and printed them on vinyl. It has already been on a run since the pics were taken, so this is no show body or shelf queen![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
Edit: added pic at end of original mascot
Forgot to add pic of original mascot for reference...
