Hermann Kersten Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) Hello everybody, Today i show you my recently build of 2 Mercedes Benz Actros Lowliners. The base kit was an Italeri MP2, a Revell MP3 kit and for the trailer an Italeri Canvastrailer, wat is completeley modified to a big volume trailer. Both cabines are modified to a L-size, engine is modified from V8 to V6 and the lowrider tyres are bought by KFS. I hope u enjoy this big completed project.

Bubba Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Good lord. Its time for me to give up the paint and glue. I was 3 pictures in before i realized they weren't real and a few more pictures in and I still wasn't sure. Unbelievable work. My hat is off to you sir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
