Serious Race Rig
kilrathy10 replied to kilrathy10's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
That was the first thing I was thinking, but I guess it would be like a van or something... Access from the inside, somewhere... Like I said, I need more pictures, because I'm just as curious... ? LOL!!! That, too... The fact that this thing exists, denotes somebody can... -
These are Killer!!! Beautiful cars...
-
These look pretty cool, Man... I'm loving that orange Discovery.. The red Toyota jumps out at me, too...
-
I applaud your efforts... This came out pretty good, considering the shape it was in... Works for me... Good job...

I have just figured out what my next project is going to be... I was checking Pinterest out, and I found this thing... A 3D model of the coolest race rig I've ever seen... And then, I found out that this truck, actually, exists... Then, there were a few more concept drawings that really peaked my interest....I saw it, and I just knew it was something I wanted to do... Not sure how much detail I'll add, but I've got to get to work and figure out how I'm going to build this thing...Definitely, looking for more pics of it... If anybody has anything different on this, please feel free to post it, here... I want to build this... Anyway... This is killer.... Time to get to work... Oh... And you know I'm going to put my own special stamp on this.... ? I'm really diggin' this interior layout... Wow!!! This one might take a while...

This is beautiful, Man... What an excellent build... I almost thought I was looking at the actual truck when I was scrolling down... Looking for the pic of the model...? It's that good, Bro... Kudos to that photography.... -
This looks great, Man... Loving all the little details in this one... Very nice...

So far, so good... This is a beauty in the making... I'm loving it... -
Man, this is a great looking build... The paint lines look great... I'd say, the masking tape has worked well... I'm really liking this thing... Can't wait to see how you do the trailer... Already looks amazing...
-
This rig is just amazing... Having just done a, well, rudimentary fire truck build, in my opinion, I can certainly appreciate all the little bits having to go on one of these things... I thought I was going to lose my mind on some of the assemblies... Nothing compared to this baby, though... With this being, almost, a total scratch build, never ceases to amaze... Beautiful work, Man... Just beautiful...

I appreciate you guys checking this project out... So glad you like it... Thanks, Bro... Totally appreciated...? I appreciate all the reference material that was available on that site you showed me... I really couldn't have pulled this off without your input... I owe you a special thanks, Man... ? Thanks, Bro... I just had to do something with this thing... I hated how the rear end looked so much like just an afterthought... Needed to flow better... Glad you liked my solution... Oh, and the Jeff Gordon car is one of my favorites... Thanks, but it's just a die cast... I like it a lot, though... I find myself playing with it every once in a while... ? -
New project

I second that... That Krylon chrome in the smaller skinny can is awesome... -
KENWORTH X 2 K123 & K100 Aerodyne
kilrathy10 replied to CRUSADER2's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Well... Not sure what's available in France, but I use something called MEK or MEK substitute.... Can be had at any hardware store, here in the States... It works just like plastic weld... Melts the plastic very easily in about the same time as the Plastruct or Tenax stuff, and WAY cheaper... You might try to locate some of that... I just transfer a little to an empty bottle and use it the same way... Now, it does require some good ventilation to use, but it does work... Tesla turned me onto this stuff... Thanks, Bud... I haven't even missed plastic weld... -

kilrathy10 replied to GeeBee's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
This looks to be a very well appointed kit... You're doing an awesome job on it... The instructions look very usable, though... Drawn up quite well, it seems... Your photography of this build thread is amazing... Very nice... -

OK... Got some ladders and such in place, and this will be the last installment until the finished product is revealed... Just a few more tidbits to go... Thanks to all who viewed this project... I had a lot of fun with it... -

Thanks a lot, B... I've always hated the immediate drop at the rear... Something just had to be done... Thanks, Bro... To be honest, I think I'm about done with this one... It's a cool thought, but it seems the more I try to add stuff, the closer I get to breaking something...Had a close call the other night.... I figure I better quit while I'm ahead... LOL!!! So, there won't be any more mods to this thing... I'll be happy to get some photos of it, outside without dropping it... Trust me... It's best for all of us...LOL!!! ? -
