stewart Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Sounds like a nice build. Yes you should get a photobucket. Then just use the IMG URL from each photo. STewart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewart Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I don't know what kind of camera you have but try getting some more lighting. It should help the camera focus better so that the pictures are clearer. Also, try setting the piece down instead of holding it so that it stays steady. The f350 looks great though. Are you going to use a dually bed? I think that would look really good. STewart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88beast Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 (edited) idk for sure yet heres a pic of my 1:1 truck i drive daily (forgot to add it in to the other pics) but its a work in progress too so but it would be sweet to have a scale model and now im thinking going dully with it due to having 2 other vehicles right now well see a lot of the builds i do sorta wander i had a nova that was built stock then prostreet then it went rally racer all before any were finished so this one i hope to follow the real idea if i can find some sick 19.5s with a meaty tread ill add it dully or some super single 19.5s Edited May 10, 2011 by 88beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
