My latest video on the full build of my mk1conversion grasshopper with front and rear suspension converted, with the build & paint of driver figure

===============================================
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 helmet, but not good enough. Would appreciate if anyone can share their resources for building better helmet!
