MCM Ohana

MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. I finally finished recreating the BJ & the Bear XXL Kenworth I did 5 years ago. There are quite a few differences from the first one and it was quite a chore to pull off. There are Kootenay tool boxes, fenders and roof spoiler from MTB, and special thanks to Ryan Mlynek for his expertise in making all the custom polished aluminum goodies!
  2. Thanks guys! It sounds like Tamiya is the way to go.
  3. ...best represents Candy Red (aka Candy Apple Red)?
  4. Here's the double bunk Astro, just finished this morning. It was not an easy build. Making the cab was easy, but lowering the cab on the frame was a pain. I upgraded the wheels & tires and the fuel tanks. It's on Ebay already.
  5. Thanks guys! The paint work is done and I'm hoping to have the model done in a week or so.
  6. Is there a person or service who can upsize a new decal sheet to a larger size/scale? There is gold involved so it would have to be done with an Alps or similar-type printer. Any help is appreciated.
  7. I looking for 2 or 3 AMT Kenworth Aerodyne cabover cab shells. They can be from the regular, Hideout, or Papa Truck kit. I don't need any interior parts or even the headlight surround pieces, just the cab shell itself. Please EMAIL ONLY to perhach2@mediacombb.net. NO PM'S PLEASE. Thank you, Mike
  8. As a lifelong rattle can painter, I use Duplicolor whenever possible. It goes on fine, not thick like Testors, etc. Like everything else it's not cheap anymore but it's still worth it to me. This Kenworth is all Duplicolor...
  9. Huge kudos to LL3 Model Worx, he sent me a can of discontinued Model Master paint that I wasn't able to locate anywhere else. Great guy to deal with!!!
  10. Thanks guys! In nearly 50 years of building this was the first mixer I ever built. The day cab is actually pretty easy to do.
  11. I finished this mash-up between a Transtar 4070A and a Challenge mixer last month...
