Thats an awesome truck you got there. May I make a suggestion to try working with photobucket instead of attaching thumbnails?

[clavender17]

ya ill make one tonight

It will be different for sure, its off to a good start.
The pipes may be a bit to big though.
Just my opinion but you don't want it to look like a cartoon custom unless thats the look your going for.
Keep us posted.
