whow thats stunning !!

oooh yeaahh now thats awsome !!!

sweet , looking good

whoop whoop thats cool , love it

the bed > real wood strips with some styrene strips in between are more easy and look better then painting the kit floor maybe with a sheet of plastic (mine isnt even styrene) you can make a bed cover

well this kit def. involves a lot of pre-fitting , btw the roof shell needs to stick out at the front insted of the back just tyake it slow and testfit a lot and make sure everything fits together .. i build one and would love to do a nother maybe some idea's of contrasts between the parts wil help ? to start with this is what the grille looks like out of the sprue take some black paint (enamel?) and paint everything inside black , dont worry about spilling onto the top chrome and after every brush wipe of the paint with a cloth (flat over the grille) after a while you get this > paint stays behind in the ford logo and grille area > makes it 2 times as realistic if you give the chassis a color paint the floors black for contrast and when your bed is assembled with the fenders and painted in the body color paint the underside and inside of the wells black , just easy going with enamel and a hand brush here you can see that the side plates will be black and the underside of the cab in blak will fit onto that and create one black underside under the cab , i also painted parts chrome , (handbrushed) you can do the indicators orange on the interiour you could go through with any colortheme , for the small vents you can use a pinty tooth pick or wooden sate stick , dip inpaint ans gently touch the parts to paint giving the roof a different color is also nice ... and i painted the whole engine compartment black and behind the grill section > black , just used a small hand brush and black enamel paint and patience when you clearcoated the body you could make a watery black wash to paint the panellines darker , same as on the grill paint the line and wife off excess paint the kit inclused a batterie , i suggest keep it white and paint the top black , you could ad a brace and some wires

whow gorgeous

cool looks great i really dig the small scale .. i have plans to do something like a dio with real small scale cars myself in the future and yes i know ... i painted this milled rod > dont know the scale but its a scale model in a 1:24 setting lol painted by hand > and a small chevy in the bed of my 1:24 ratrod got to love that small stuff

great progress , soo nice !!

looking great mike !!

awsome

whooow awsome

very cool , one of the > i will build something like this things on my list ....so i'm watching

the build was so much fun to watch and the end result is just stunning , proportions are spot on , the weathering is insanely cool with the faded white ... just love this > top notch

yes cool james i think that will look great , and sadly nothing done on this .. been busy working on my custom chopper project and building stuff in the garden , wooden decking and redoing the outside of my shed with new wood and windows

hmm cool project !

nice build !!

love it !!!

ooh yes ... sooo nice !!

looks great .. maybe try a like weathered or not weathered logo on the body ... and i would do something with the wheels .. i would try to find some chrome rims to put in the white walls .. that will pop so much better on the patina body and then the grille in chrome , some nice chrome mirrors ....
