Coincidentally, the paper model I would like to steal the box from is a Ford Louisville😁😁 Obviously I will only take the box from that model as the paper frame is very simplified and not strong enough to hold a die cast body ...

You can bet it!! Don't worry👍👍

It will be a bit of an arranged build because here in Italy the model shops have closed due to the covid and I can't buy styrene or paints, so I have to deal with what I have. When all this is over, I have a nice jeep golden hawk to get my hands on ... 😉😉

I will not rely on a kit but on a 1/34 scale toy that I would like to modify in order to make it as similar as possible to that, the box I would like to use instead is a pattern that I have in the computer archive for a few years, and honestly, it will look strange to you, but I'm not sure if I make the styrene box, I really like papercraft, so I was thinking of building it very precisely out of paper, add details in platicard and then spray it with glossy paint that gives texture and a laminated effect. I learned this method from the modelers who build paper airliners and I find it really valid😁😁

Thanks for the advice, the basic model I will use it only to recover the cabin, maybe wheels and interior, for the chasis we will see ... 😅😅

And hello to all guys !! After several days of absence I started with a new small but interesting project. I would like to make a box truck, like those used for removals based on a ford f 150 ... The basic model has not yet arrived and I'm still looking for the best solution to build the box, I should have the pattern file from somewhere in the computer ... For now, any advice is welcome Thanks for the attention!!

Yuppy !! Stephen, I'm happy that you continue this WIP with the tank, I really like the look that the truck takes on once hooked and it's true American trucks have more charm than ours between 53 'trailers and 3-axle tractors are the real ones king of the highways or rather of the interstates, I wish you all the best for the intervention in the hospital, I'm sure you will build models like and better than before !! 💪💪💪

Unfortunately JT I was not on the forum when I built it, so I have few photos, but maybe in a while I open a topic in the under glass section, I take some shots from different angles and post them😉😉

Nice work !! 👏👏 Really nice beast !! 💪💪

For me it is already very beautiful like this💪💪, but I understand that having to follow the drawings some changes are actually necessary ...

Very beautiful !! 👏👏👏You go like a train and you are doing a great job !! 😮😮

Really nice job with the cab !! 👏👏👏It will be a great model !! 🏆🏆

Here is my nascar hauler made with the italeri semitrailer, I only used one, but I like the result ... 😎😎

I already complimented you at the end of WIP, but they couldn't make it here too! 😁😁 Great beautiful model, no easy work done by manual !! 🏆🏆🏆 For the trailer the choice is yours, I seem to remember that you like 20 "container trailers 😉😉

You said a great truth, as an Italian fan of nascar I would buy one, they are insanely beautiful, I tried to do a nascar hauler with the Italeri trailer, it did not turn out badly, even if I admit that you can see that it is a European trailer hooked to a American truck, if anyone cares post the photo ... 😁😁
