gotnitro? Posted July 10, 2022 Author Share Posted July 10, 2022 I made steady progress over the weekend. There's a few details missing still but its really close to finished now. I have an order thru ST supply to complete the build. I used fine quik crete powder for the weathering, mixing up a thin overall wash. Enough chatter..enjoy ! The original plan was a build showing a working truck used but maintained by the driver and owner, thats the reason for keeping the crud to a meow... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockford Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Fantastic looking machine! Looks very realistic. The weathering is just right. You can be suitably proud of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petriedish Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Looks fantastic. Don't forget to add a unit number to it. Especially on the rear charge hopper and the sides of the hood. Quick crete weathering is the only way to do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked closer at photos and this truck has a unit number 13 on the hood side, I'll have to print a couple off My buddy Chris uses Quick crete for his builds, borrowed the tip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
