MN 82 RC Landcruiser 79 with mahi-mahi custom paint job

[Steelfish]

Just a custom paint job of a Mahi-mahi (dorado fish) on this MN model RC trailtruck MN82 1:12
I wanted to build the truck with a "Let's Go Fishing theme" so, I painted the truck mahi-mahi and made some fishing poles, a bait bucket, added some shotguns I had from the OG axial wraith tree parts.

Current mods are some upgrades from aliexpress as 21G metal servo, 370 motor, metal tranny gears and 1.0 tires, it also has the metal shocks I have on hand from my losi Mini-T, switched the stock trashy ESC/Rx electronics for a Hobbywing 1060 ESC and FlySky Radio

still waiting for T-plug connectors to put them on the battery and HW 1060 Esc

Out of all the mahi-mahi themed paint-jobs I've ever seen, this one is by far the coolest. Okay... this is the first I've actually ever seen. But still very cool. Nice accessories for the bed.
