About this model

Last update 2020.12.05 added enhanced driver body for easier printing, better fixed to chassis file : driverbody_201122.stl My latest video on the full build of my mk1conversion grasshopper with front and rear suspension converted, with the build & paint of driver figure Also recent reference video with the printed driver figure for grasshopper =============================================== This is driver figure for tamiya's iconic buggy grasshopper. In order to build the full figure, you will need all 3 stl files, however if you would rather use the original driver head, print only 'gh_driver_fav_v17.stl' file. My modeling skill is not yet good enough, I had very very difficult time building the helmet as what I wanted. My intention was to build a helmet similar to wild one's driver helm…
