  1. Dude, that is some awesome work.....You put a lot of time and effort into your frames.....Very nice work on the stretched portion, as well.....I have to add those bolts to mine.....And that 5th wheel looks incredible.....Way better....
  2. Yeah....It looks like your radiator is mounted a smidge too far back.....I'd say just take a screwdriver and widen it a little and touch it up.....Shouldn't be too hard to fix.....You only need a mm or so.....
  3. Looks great, Man....You really almost have to put the whole engine together and just work everything back and forth till it dries enough to stay put....What you've got should be good enough....I don't recall having any problems with it interfering with the hood or anything on either of my Prostar builds....So there's room for error.....
  4. Oh, you're ok....The slot is there....It fits pretty loosely into the groves.....
  5. Getting really close to finishing.....Just have to install grab handles on the stacks, and I may make those bigger, as well....Undecided, though.....But this is what I have, so far.....Gotta figure out what I'm gonna pull with this thing, as well....
  6. I like how you did the interior....That looks more like a "reguler trucker's setup", if you will....Very nice work on the dash, too....I like the changes you made with the decals.....Looks great....
  7. Just beautiful work.....Awesome work on this whole thing....
  8. Interesting....Can't wait to see what you do with this one....
  9. That is definitely looking good....Very nice.....
  10. Looking very nice....An impressive start, for sure....
  11. Stacks look good....I like that look....Nice work on the bunk for the interior, too....That's another thing to look out for.....The cab, probably, won't set level with the rear cab mounts in the current position....They need to be raised a couple mm's to get the right look....Or you could just add a spacer on top of them.....Forgot to warn you about that....
  12. Looking really good, Man.....Very nice work....The dash is superb....
  13. They're totally getting there.....Excellent work on both.....
  14. Excellent work on the doors, Man.....Very nice work on the panels, too...Nice technique.....I see you got to one of those ALF's.....I've gotta get to work on that Simba kit you gave me....Totally gonna build it, soon....
  15. Man, that is just too flippin' cool....Excellent scratchwork and awesome paint skills.....Very nice......We all need one of those, somewhere, in the collection....Very nice....
  16. Oh, yeah, this is a good looking interior....I like that gray scheme.....Looks real nice......Great decal application, too..... And, you're welcome with the pics, Man....I don't know who's trailer it is, but I liked it.....
  17. Man, that is just too, dadgum cool.....Just too cool.....Some of the best scratch building I've seen.....There are some good ones posted, here, too....This ranks up there with the best....
  18. Man, you are doing just fine....You keep at it and your builds will reflect.....I'm totally diggin' this....The paint and graphics are always spot on.....This just looks good...
  19. This is a very nice looking tractor.....Nice paint and the build is just great.....Very nice....
  20. Hey, Marshall....No problem with the stretch info....I'm always happy to help out with whatever I can....I'm glad somebody could use it....
  21. I would say, "Keep it simple"......I suggest something like this....It would still look good with the side panels white....And, obviously, everything else would be that gold....
  22. It'll be good to have you going after trucks, Man....I think you'll do just fine....And once you've built one, you'll be hooked.....The good thing is that the rereleases are better than the originals by way of flash and the wheels and tires are much better.....And speaking of Diamond Reos, Hobby Lobby is getting rid of them.....I bought 3 of them on clearance for $13.31 each, yesterday....I really do love Hobby Lobby....
  23. This is a very nice build....I, particularly, like the rocker panel tape you used for the trailer sides.....That really came out good.....I also like the reversal of the fenders on the truck....That's something I don't think many of us have ever tried....That looks pretty awesome....I mean, seriously.....I'm a pretty "seasoned" modeler and I've NEVER thought of that, as many of us would agree....Sure, they would drag, but if you cut even a couple mm off, then you've got something really workable.....I, for one, am thankful for that idea.... Amazing what you can learn from this forum.....And the paint scheme ROCKS, by the way....
  24. Ahh, Yes.....This is coming along very nicely.....I love the stretch.....That's what a Prostar in this spec ought to look like....I can never get enough of this truck....I have 3 more to build......Still looking for more....Man, that red looks good on that motor....Great job on the APU, too...
  25. Good looking truck.....I like this old guy....Great work....
