Nice progress ! Watching all the smaller details fill up the negative space is always enjoyable for me. Brings the model from a shell to a complete trailer. -

Very creative, really turned out fantastic -
I tested an idea ...scary..for making domed tank ends. The idea hit me literally after a paint can got knocked off shelf . Mixing up a small batch of 2 part resin and filling the bottom of the paint can yielded some very convenient ends. Next time I'll pay attention and not fill the can so full, these are pretty big lol That number? Was the lot number off the can it removed lol

Glad you mentioned the Wagner model, I thought I'd read there was w belly dump offered . Going from plans to sheet will yield a better model anyway. -
Wrapped up the other side steps and started on the large pressurized water tank these trucks carried. This tank is side mounted , usually right ahead of the rear axle. The resin tank I'd planned to use was too small overall, so a replacement is underway. Heres the steps I asked step dad for any empty pill bottles he tosses away, and scored a suitable size for my water tank. They still need some domed ends added. The original saddle water tank looking puny on this frame The replacement tank, only slightly larger overall but exactly what I envisioned. One domed end attached from a scrap tank, ill use Milliput for the other end. I found sticking a damp blob of Milliput on the end, then forming with a bottom of soda can makes a great shape

Brockway 360 Heavy Haul Tractor

Nice bumper the fog lights look good -
One side is buttoned up, getting everything fitting tight was a huge target. Plastruct diamond plate sheet was used throughout. The bottom step is a bit of tread plate from moluminum stock I ended up changing the fender mounts to avoid a trip hazard around the steps, and plan the same surgery on the opposite side. I joined the covid club last wknd, but feeling good after a few days rest
