  1. Here is a pic of my 1:1. I might add more later. Any pointers on how I might make the fender flares would be nice.
  2. Hey guys. Been a while. I just ordered a 1/25 Ram 2500, and hope to make it look like my first truck, and current driver (a nice version anyway). The kit is 2wd as you all know, and my truck is 4wd, so if I do that conversion, it coud be a challenge. Just needed something fun to get back into modelling. I'm going to need some mirrors for the kit, but chevy mirrors might do the trick. I have a ton of other fun little challenges to come with this build, but hopefully it will be a good build. I do not have the kit yet, but it is on its way. I can post pics of the 1:1, though.
  3. Those the tires of the Lindberg F-150? If so, it looks good with them.
  4. This is an older build. It has changed a little, but this is what I had at the time, so feel free to comment or make suggestions, because I'm never actually done with a build. Two tone interior, don't know if you can tell, they're close colors, added clutch pedal and gear shift Before and after Painting. Rear view (tail lights have been redone) Front view Very low detailed engine, but like I said: I'm never done with a build And just a little fun Sorry about the bad quality pics! Took these with my Ipod.
  5. I think the blue engine is fine. When restoring, you can do whatever you want! My dad's 340 for his dart is supposed to be blue, but he's painting it hemi orange... Doesn't really matter.
  6. Mine without the plow. It has the plow mount on as you can see, a rack with an amber light bar on top. It has a Cb antenna with a Cb radio mounted to the ceiling in the cab, and had the typical truck dent in the rear bumper. Had a tailgate with a couple dents in it, but it broke, so I got a new one and don't feel like destroying it. I'll see if I can find a pic of it with the plow on.
  7. Update... sorta. I sorta put it somewhat together, just to get an idea of what it looks like. I put a gloss clear coat on it, and put the headlights in. did some body detailing. Sorry about the bad lighting and fuzzy pictures. My camera likes daytime, outdoor photos.
  8. Here ya go! 4 of my favorite trucks I've built. My ram dually. It's just a simple body lift to look 4x4 height. It has custom made tow mirrors, and a custom made chrome exhaust tip. My ford f150. It was a kit bash that turned out nice. It has a custom made donut sitting on the dash.My chevy dually. just another simple body lift to look 4x4 height. It has a toolbox made out of dissected legos, hot wheels boxes and and Spackle.Finally, My ram 2500. it has a cb radio hanging from the ceiling, a long cb antenna, a custom light bar, trailer hitch, plow mount and plow, and folded tow mirrors. This one actually has custom axles made for the lift. Oh, it also has the typical dent in the bumper like most trucks.
  9. In a min I'll just whip a couple up for you (dead serious).
  10. Looks nice. The one I'm building came in perfect condition pretty much. I has to do a lot of sanding on the body so that there wouldn't be creases. You did a good job straightening it though.
  11. Not bad. My brother, known as platerpants on here both picked up model building at very young ages. I like it. We haven't had a team project though. Might have to try it sometime.
  12. Haha, finally an opinion! I'm thinking metal flake black with a flat coat.
  13. Update: Painted the body. Still need some help on whether black or silver fender flares would look better. I'm also debating a clear coat or not.
  14. Ok guys, I got a new camera battery and charger, so I'm gonna ask for your opinions. Red/Maroon with silver fender flares, or black fender flares?
  15. I'm working on mine right now. It's in the W.I.P section. I like it.
