  1. Oh, yeah....That is pretty flippin' awesome.....Excellent job....Just awesome.....
  2. Nice job on this old beast......I plan to build one of these and the Meng F350 in tandem, sometime this year.....Love that smooth paint.....
  3. Got my replacement tree last week.....I was quite surprised....Came really quickly.....Gotta get another one of those things.....It's a great model, and now a decent price....
  4. Beautiful job on this Pete, Man....What an awesome piece of work.....Beautiful....
  5. Great job on this one.....As you've stated, the AMT models can be a bit challenging to say the least....But you're right that you have a rare model to display.....Beautiful....
  6. Nice work, Man....Looks great.....Might need to throw some mud flaps on the back of that bad boy, though.. Or Somebody's getting a ticket....
  7. I have to comment, again....Just amazing.....I love trucks that just "flow"....And this design just flows......Awesome....
  8. You're getting there.....Looking great....
  9. Good looking Transtar.....I don't know why I haven't built one of these things, yet.....Every one I've seen looks great.....Nice job.....Gonna have to work on steadying that hand... I try to lean against something while I'm taking them when I can't get a good shot......But we get the gist of it.....Nice work....
  10. I must say....This is one beautiful representation......I couldn't really make out what you were building from the reference photos, but once you see the model, WOW !!! What a beautiful piece of work....Nice....
  11. Great work, Man....This thing is looking sharp.....
  12. You'll be fine, either way.....I've got my mind set on getting one of these things on the shelf, as well.....Nice work, so far.....You should have sent "Mama" to the mall, better yet, Walmart.....I don't ask my wife for any help on paint....It's gonna be orange, and that's that.....
  13. That's amazing....I couldn't fathom snow like that down here.....Gonna get up into the upper 60's, today.....But that's Houston.....
  14. Looking pretty good, Man.....Looking pretty good.....
  15. This is gonna be a great project.....Looks good already.....
  16. This is just a good looking model.....I don't think I've seen a one of these I didn't like.....This is no exception....Great job.....
  17. This is a beautiful job, here Man....Very nice work....The paint scheme looks great....Love it....
  18. Awesome work, Man.....This is another one of your masterpieces......Your weathering skills are awesome....Great job, again....
  19. Good Gravy !!!! That load looks AWESOME !!!!! Very nice work.....You made those pieces of steel out of CARDBOARD !!??? WOW !!!! That looks REAL.....Outstanding work....And the chains and binders and straps look just as good.....Awesome....
  20. I've seen those offerings on line, as well....I can't say much for those.....I'd imagine they'd be great for a step deck trailer or moving van.....However, I've had great luck with the 1/32 wheels and tires from Jada Toys.....Here they are on this trailer....
  21. Oh, yeah....I also used to build more sci-fi and real space stuff.....I used to love Star Trek, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, Buck Rogers.....Still do, but about 1995 or so, I bought my first Revell/Italeri Ford Aeromax.....I couldn't believe how much better it went together than most AMT models......That one I still have.....From then on I was Hooked.....I was very happy with it....Although my skills have gotten better over the years, I'm still surprised at how good it looked right out of the box...... Really interesting where many of you got your starts.....Great topic, Mike.....
  22. Amazingly enough, my first big rig model was some of those 1/43 scale or 1/64 scale models they used to have....I have no idea who made them, but I remember a cabover of some sort and a trailer.....Those were so cool.....Loved playing with them......I then graduated to the Monogram 1/32 scale models.....I used to love those, too, because you could, again, play with them afterwards.....Better to play with on the carpet, though, because I used to twist the parts off, leaving a piece of the tree on the tires.....Made for a bumpy ride.....All of them are long since broken or lost.....Had fun with them, though.....I think I was only 8, so.......
  23. LOL !!!! I like it....Bring it on....I'll have some boys ready to off load them bad boys.....Fresh squeezed paint !!!!!
  24. Can't wait to see you get this one working....I've never had the pleasure of building this kit.....
  25. Absolutely mind blowing piece of work.....A fantastic representation of the real one.....You've got this truck modeling thing down pat.....What a beautiful truck.....I can't wait to grow up and be just like you, Man....That is true artistry....
