The Brush

Hi, Off to a slow start, but finaly got the frame painted, Rear wheels are italeri, Front are resin tyres & revell wheel with italeri rim, The body had been sprayed with cellulose on plastic ,so i decided to not waste time trying to make it good & make new parts, as i go , wheels & stacks are chrome alclad, this is it so far. Thanks for looking Graham.

That`s a great looking Brockway, Impressive build well done Graham

Hi, Thanks for the comments . I extended the frame & repaired the front axle with ali tube & cut down nails, Because the frame is long & empty looking i added some basic plumbing, The lift axle is scratch built along the lines of the original, the grill was also repaired, new hinges made & mack letters added, The cab still needs more work although it`s in primer. Thanks for looking. Graham.

Brilliant job. Very clean & rare subject, well done. Graham.

Hi, This looks just right. Great work. Graham

Hi, I saw a picture of a crew cab superliner & decided to build one, A gentleman at a model show gave me a box of bits some yearrs back, in this box was parts of the can do wrecker & a Italeri frame with cummins motor, This is the start of the project, 2 resin cabs were used cut & joined with plastic card, The roof filled with balsawood , I will make a frame extension from card & perspex & hopefully all other bits from the spares stash. this is more like recycling than a new build. Hers a few pics to start with.

Hi, Thanks for the interest in the Mack, The chrome vinyl i used was a 3m product in sheet form cut larger than needed & applied with a soft cloth working across the ribs front to back. Chrome vinyl sheet is nowadays available from craftshops like hobbycraft also lots of other colours. Happy new year Graham.

Thank you everybody for the positive comments. Graham.

Hi, That's a well detailed model with a quality paint finish, Look forward to see it finished. Graham

Hi, I knew this would turn out looking good. Very nicely done. Graham.

Hi, Trawling through some old photo`s i came across this distant build from some time back, I built it from plastic card, perspex, plywood & balsa wood, Ali tube, with suspension & wheels from italeri also other parts from the spares. Finished in a pearl green & gold from rattle cans, The trailer is a great dane covered in chrome vinyl. The seats are made to rotate. Thanks for looking.

Nice work on the frame, Will look good when finished in the Blue Mule livery.

Thanks for the kind words, There is a build thread it`s on page 3 now. All the best Graham.

Thanks for all the comments, Much appreciated.

This is a resin cab & frame from AITM .

The front axle is a metal item from KFS (Kit Form Services) a UK company. The tyres are from Italeri, thanks for asking.

Hi, Bit of sunshine so i managed some pics outside, B61 finished in metallic green & black, chrome is Alclad & Molotow liquid pen. Thanks for looking.

Hi, Another grand build, I have seen a couple of these in real life, But they didn`t look this good. nice one. Graham.

Hi, Firstly thanks for the comments on the Mack Valuliner very kind. Built a few years ago, This Mack needs no introduction as it`s been built many times, This is my only 1/32nd scale i have built I made a new frame , altered the hood, added a bull bar, & lots of other mods. The wheels are made from buttons, decals are homemade the bull dog carved to resemble the duck, The trailer is scratchbuilt A wooden framework covered in plastic card, The figure of Martin Penwald - aka the rubber duck- is a military figure converted.

Hi, This is a fairly old build , It`s an Auslowe hood fitted to a italeri superliner with frame mods, Bull bar & tanks are home made, Air cleaner tops are screw covers. Ali tube exhaust. Sleeper from a western star. Sprayed silver & gunmetal with rub down scroll decals ,The lining is done with a sharpie fine liner. Thanks for looking.

Hi, That`s a great looking Mack, The paint scheme make`s it stand out. Nice one. Graham
