You know when you watch someone make something easy, they've had years of practice. You sir, make it look easy and each time you paint it comes out looking incredible. Love what you did to this truck through and through. Just awesome! Hope you have a speedy recovery so we can see a running video soon. Love your content as always!

[@hemistormrc]

Thanks Niels! Another running video will be made, I hope you caught the first one too. 😃👍🏼👍🏼

[@nielsjuhr594]

@@hemistormrc the scenery in the previous video ... breathtaking. To me it looks like a slice of heaven. The running content, awesome as always. I'm always looking forward to your videos!

Was just thinking about SCX6 Honcho mods...you read my mind!

[@hemistormrc]

I hope they will come in useful!

[@rcstories_ca]

Love the gold “mud” splatters. Very appropriate on an off-road truck. 👍

[@hemistormrc]

Glad you like them, I think it's nice to tie that wheel face color in somewhere and this seemed appropriate.

[@rossgross7497]

Wow what a different look. There is no doubt that it is definitely better looking. Cant wait to see what you do with Matt and Josh on the month of mayhem.

Would have loved to take part, but I'm out traveling.

Looking like a true TACO now👍 Great work!

There is no hope. You'll see me at ALL your videos. Black out on the headlamps was a nice touch. Always a pleasure to watch !!! You accent reminds me of my programming teacher. Always thoroughly impressed by your creativity.

Those wheels are sexy in full scale and hobby scale!! They’ll be going on my 1/6 Honcho when they finally hit the shelves. Great video as usual!!

[@richw9205]

I’m always one that likes to tweak and personalize brand new things when I get them. I do it with nearly everything. Your skill far surpasses my own but I love how you turned this into a Tacoma. Fantastic idea and it turned out GREAT!! My SCX6 won’t be near as nice but it’ll be fun to personalize it.

[@hemistormrc]

Keep me posted on what you will come up with, Rich!

[@olafstrand9965]

Knocked it out of the park! Deff. getting the Honcho now over the JEEP. I'm a fan of both IRL and have had both, currently driving a JK. Thanks again for taking us along your painting journey, vary relaxing.

[@hemistormrc]

Happy to read that, have fun!

[@sagnhill]

One thing I did to my SCX6 is to cut the clear stickers on the windows and windshield. It gives it a more realistic look and you can see inside the cab better. I just took a blade and cut around the black trim sticker and peeled off the opaque sticker and left the black trim and windshield sunshade behind..

[@spencertidd]

Late to the party... one of the best looking SCX6's out there for sure.

[@amitej4411]

Honestly, you're trucks are one of the coolest looking trucks ever! But can we also get some crawling action; something like West Desert Wheeler?

[@hemistormrc]

If you watch my first SCX6 Trail Honcho video, there is plenty of it!

[@crawlingri]

Hands down best painter

Firstly Chris, I hope you get to feeling better soon and able to shake that early autumn sinus 💯 What can I say except that I am totally astonished about how much detail that you've added to the looks of this Trail Honcho (assuming this took a few days) with this labor of passion for the Hobby 👍😎👍 AOAH... Just one question on the black backing paint, did you consider the possibility of using some of the gold colors before the black to maybe give it more "shimmer" to the thin orange?

[@jamesplymire5342]

WOW!! It's actually like translucent or something. First time I've seen that from a major RC brand. Why do you think Axial did it that way?

[@toddbertram6556]

I'm still a firm believer in that the best face lift is abuse and rock rash. Looks the most realistic. I set of rims is always a bonus.

[@hemistormrc]

Sure thing, but adding some paint and detail before the rock rash is even better.

Wasuup man ,, i just finished watching all your scx6 videos , and i have a question man,, would you mind building some bed sides for the honcho lol, idk if im the only one thinking like this but personally feel like just adding some bed sides and leave the back open and the cage just the way everything comes , the bed sides would complete the look for the toyota pick up ,

[@1111-t5n]

Have a question from the past on a vehicle, which you are very knowledgeable of that is the axial yeti xl. I am thinking of, off road speed running for 100 mph spot I have upgraded most of the drive line worked on the sloppy steering over the years. I have it sitting on a table in the corner looking for some fun, do you think the chassis is up to the challenge in your experience with the chassis design over the years, also sway bars installed, was going to upgrade the spring steel on the rear to help keep that straight axle planted. Also upper rear links replaced with aluminium and all link mounts changed to cnc stuff lower links are those reinforced plastic from the kit. I was thinking castle mamba monster x with capacitors and 1100kv motor with the right pinion spur gear combo running 8s will it get the yeti xl to 100mph. Or will that rear end keep it on the slower side just reaching out for a thought. Also enjoy the new content stay blessed have a excellent rest of your year someone should speed run the scx6 to 100mph in the off road attempt 😀 Real question is who has the nerve to sacrifice a 1000 bucks for some rc fame. Once again stay blessed hemistorm
