She’s a beauty! I’d love to get my hands on one of these transkits. Hopefully Models by Dave will be offering them eventually. -
Wow that’s a beautiful yacht.

Great updates on your progress, Brian. Nice work on the hood. I’ll have to remember that “caulk” technique. -
Peterbilt 379 RV
vincen47 replied to vincen47's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I got it several years ago, I think around 2018 from a guy on EBay that goes by thorloveseleanor. He’s still an active seller on EBay, but he hasn’t listed anything like that in a long time. He had some custom sleeper frames back then, and I requested him to make a couple for me. The first frame was shorter, and I used it to make the Aeromax RV. The longer one was used for this project. If you message him on EBay, maybe he can help. The prints were rough by today’s standards, requiring a lot of sanding. 3d printing has come a long way since then. Stuff is so much smoother now. -

The sleeper window is great. Haven’t seen a build with that option before. Awesome. -

Great build. Nice wheels, and I love the engine choice. You spec’d this truck very well. -

Got the rivet decals applied. To be honest, they are annoying to work with. They are the ones from Micro Mark. Maybe a different brand would be better? They are much more fragile than typical decals. After applying the rivets, I added another coat of primer. A little more touch up body work and then the final primer coat will be next. -

Thanks! I appreciate it. They’re an odd vehicle, but really cool in my book. Combines the things I like best in life…trucks and camping. -

FDNY Wrecker

Yep. Gotta get the true Xacto blades, not the knock off BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH. Excellent work. Love the way the MP8 turned out. -
