SpreadAxle Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) What color did you use on the cab? I like the tan/beige color and the blue looks great too. Edited August 31, 2016 by SpreadAxle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ack! Ack-ack! Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Thanks for the feedback and sorry for this very late reply due to three boring weeks of seaside holidays without modeling. I would call the base colour of the cab rather medium ivory, i. e. a mixture of much white, some yellow and a little red, maybe one or two drops of black. I always use Humbrol and Revell enamels. I still have the sealed jar with the blue mixture. My writing on a piece of tape says that it is 50% Humbrol #15 Midnight Blue and 50% Revell #52 Blue.

Deuces ll Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 On 6/23/2016 at 4:33 PM, Ack! Ack-ack! said: This is a more recent build of mine. Many years ago I got a box with the remains of a built AMT Peterbilt 352, a brush-painted, damaged and incomplete glue bomb. I never knew what to do with it until I thought this could be a good start for my first conversion. Should I fail nothing would be lost. Finally dismantling, paint stripping, converting into a daycab and replacing the missing parts wasn't half as difficult as supposed. After finishing the tractor I felt encouraged to start my first scratch building project for the trailer. As expected compared to a kit it was laborious but also not too difficult. Anyway both projects were much more fun than building OOB. What happened to the pictures?????..... ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
