misterNNL Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Blair,did you make scale drawings of the larger panels of your truck when you were building it?I would like to see you post photos of them if you did.If we had the panel drawings for the cowl/windshield,side panel,doors,roof and rear section panel that we could enlarge to the size we needed we could use those to create our own versions of your bread truck. Thanks...Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Geiger Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 no TOM ,I did not the drawlings are just free hand drawlings i do of the models befor i build them , I will usually create the body from card stock before carrying the design over to sheet plastic. Card stock is cheaper than sheet plastic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
