Excellent work and craftsmanship Every part really looks like the real item

Looking forward to your coe

The chains really look good on the tires

The paint is dry, so it's time to start final assembly!!! The plow got a few touches of black along the discharge end , and the road scraper The frame and sander hopper is semi gloss black , the diamond plate fenders is buffed aluminum plate, and fuel tank ended up dull aluminum. I might lower the black area on plow , the real one had more showing from the side ..we'll see

Nice and dirty ! Definitely watching this develop

Nice !!!!

Heres the orange after drying overnight...later I'll airbrush the anti glare hood

Glad to have ya along.! Your project sounds like a fun build

Dont get discouraged , its Feb now and still plenty of time to finish your build ! Really looking forward to your build, these trucks arent seen as frequently as other kits

Your making progress !!! Too bad your having paint issues , they definitely stall a build . My plow build had similar issues . I washed the resin parts like always , then sprayed primer. Small fish eyes appeared in spots.. an annoying issue

Yeah , I actually meant to lightly tack most of the parts on making the painting easier..but enjoying the work so much , most of the parts stayed put. The white areas are where I removed the fender hangers to paint them orange. The details really jump out now Thanks ! I'll take a few pics of the painted body today, I'm really happy with the results

Awesome job !!!

Excellent work ! Everything about this truck looks spot on , the colors have the proper era stripes..the list goes on and on !

Excellent build ! Looks just like your photo , and has your eye for detail

Fantastic weathering

Looks very good Good thing ya checked fitment along the way, these kits can really throw monkey wrenches into progress, and checking frequently helps ..my problem I rush in then realize a problem lol

Hopefully your home issues are done for awhile! Grapple will really be cool

Reached the primer stage today on the frame and got the orange sprayed! I picked up a can of rusto allis Chalmers orange for the body , and wanted to see how it looked . Sprayed a test on a spare mack hood.. Weird how lighting makes frame look blue..its light gray primer lol. Planning to paint the sander hopper / frame semi gloss black. The hood will get its flat black anti glare panel also

Outstanding fabrication those corners look absolutely awesome

Very unique truck there Kerry !!! Right up your alley

Your build looks fantastic !!!

Cool car ..and great color ! Might be posted in wrong forum though...this is the big rig section lol

So we're almost a month into the BRBO already, and have a serious amount of building going on !!! Thanks again to everyone that's joined up and participating!!

Definitely looks like Tamiya Buff , deck tan is more gray

Charles - I'm noticing several areas that need sanding w finer grits after taking photos, so I see a few primer sessions
