Tony Bryan Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Sergey Nice work as usual, but need to ask why the decals? thought it would have been easier to paint the cab, then add the decals as needed, it must be hard to get the cab colour to the chassis I don't have a picture of the cab over clutch set up, only the conventional W model, but it would be on the same sort of set up, with brackets and levers, would be much easier to do hydraulic set up with a slave cylinder Got any more up dates?

Sergey Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 (edited) Hey Tony! I can't print white permits in the back bottom corner of the cab, using my jet printer. So I can't figure out another way to safe authenticity here. BUT, here is the result: As you can see, the decal suit the cab well, but main probleme here are air bubbles, sticking between cab and decal. I coulden't release them all. They are marked with red. I already wash the decal off and will ask Jim to make the decal separate for easy to use and print white symbols on ALP printer. Perhaps everyone can buy the set soon.

mackinac359 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I've never had a decal stripe not do what yours are doing. I mix acrylic paint to touch up those decal trouble spots. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69A-CAR Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 That is a beautiful stripe job! I can't imagine trying to install a decal that big. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truck parts Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 HAVE YOU TRIED DECAL SET? AND THEN MIX UP MATCHING PAINT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergey Posted October 6, 2011 Author Share Posted October 6, 2011 O-key, guys. The main problem is not about the paint. Mostly it's about air bubbles between cab and decal. I guess the photos are fail to show how bad it looks. Or may be I am just perfectionist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legorigs Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I love the work you're doing on the Cruiseliner. Maybe you can use your decals to make some templates for the paintjob by tracing the lines on paper or some other material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Bryan Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Sergey Nice job on the engine, the fan belts look great, and there is nothing wrong with being a perfectionist, and this is the closest I have seen to it http://www.henribaigent.org/Ferrari/ferrari.htm make sure you read the story, as this man far out does the famous Mr Wingrove, not to say that Gerald Wingrove does make a beautiful model, Henry Baigent does it with more detail enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White7000 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Привесвую Сергей! С детсва болею американскими (и не только) грузовиками (фильм "Конвой" сыграл здесь не последнюю роль).Уровень детализации вашей модели просто потрясающий! Замки на аккумуляторных ящиках, рабочие аммортизаторы, двигатель как будто с рекламного проспекта мак, просто фантастика! Только непонятно, зачем клеить такую огромную декаль на всю кабину, это же ужасно сложно. Пару лет назад посчастливилось раздобыть амт-шный круизлайнер, и я так же как и вы решил слепить "свинарника".Модель закончил этим летом,вот то что получилось http://fotki.yandex.ru/users/diamondreo/. Сейчас работаю над 352м питом из того же фильма. Очень хочется увидеть чем закончится ваша эпопея с маком! Удачи! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticks Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I am gob smacked at the amount of detail is in this build. As I am scrolling down the page, reading all post's and comments, I'm sitting here shaking my head in disbelief thinking to myself how many hours of research and bench time that has gone into this. What an amazing job you have done Sergey, well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Really liked the XJ220 in MCM 162, then I happen to run across this buildup. Wow! Glad to see somebody doing this old girl justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergey Posted December 5, 2011 Author Share Posted December 5, 2011 Привесвую Сергей! Привет, Денис. Спасибо. Рад знакомству. Очередной раз убеждаюсь, что наши моделисты мыслят одинаково (независимо друг от друга) в одно и то же время. Видел твой Маск. Отлично сделано. И декали видел. А для чего если не секрет логотип "Leslie Leasing Co"? Мне и самому уже не терпится увидеть чем это закончится, но катострофически не хватает времени. 2 Sticks & Chuck Most: Thank you guys for your comments. Didn't know that XJ220 article published already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White7000 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 А для чего если не секрет логотип "Leslie Leasing Co"? . Приветствую! "Leslie Leasing Co"- надпись на двери синего 352-го Пита из того-же фильма. Как раз на днях начал над ним работать. Фильм в детстве сильно запал в душу, поэтому сейчас хочу потихоньку воссоздавать машины-участники. Причем не те что на первых ролях (Резиновых утят и Свинарников делают многие), а что-нибудь из второго плана, например белый Brockway или красный двухосный Mack. А насчет времени это точно. Я свой Mack лепил по вечерам примерно год!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostas Parchas Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Gentlemen use English please!!! It is very simple and easy for me to write here in Greek, but who can read Greek here??? This is an English writing board, so please keep it in English. I think its OK if you are use British English or US English, (I use a mix of both) but keep it in ENGLISH!!!! Kostas.

No harm is done. I am using google chrome as a browser so it is very easy to translate every thing. I was meaning that it would be better for the board and the other members to use English to understand each other. I can't recal but I think there is a board rulle about the language we are using.
