I could but its actually green fish line , maybe a coat of gunmetal would give the look
Other question I have , what does the gin poles attach to when stowed , they dont seem to hook to roller , guess theres a pivot in the trough they rotate on ?
Okay I'm stumped , trying to decide how to paint the winch cable ? Its braided fishing line. Black doesnt seem right , but not sure how to make it look right...any ideas ? Heres what it currently looks like
Thanks !
Thanks ! The visor is k & s aluminum sheet. I just eyeballed width, then bent ends over around doors. I used dremel to finalize shape
Thanks , its really coming together
Thanks Kerry ! I'm really having fun building a dirty truck. About had a panic attack whe I mixed alcohol w the powders , and it looked ruined. Luckily I had sealed the top coat w dullcoat, and the alcohol didnt attack the color
More work on the kw. I needed to replace the kit glass w takeout container plastic , looks more to scale . While I was screwing with the cab, I fashioned a visor from aluminum sheet
time for dust ! Using a tamiya weathering pack and water i applied a thin wash around the edges of bumper and overall on the cab/ fenders.
the bumper and cage need chipping, they look pretty new vs the deck lol
Outstanding work as always ! Building parts from a photo and turning them into detailed pieces is stunning. Looking at the fine lines on your grill and fenders is remarkable
Absolutely beautiful work love watching artists paint
The sun ray pattern is stunningly simple idea once seeing the masking , but takes a steady hand to accomplish well done
I snuck it back into cabinet lol thanks
Thanks
Thanks !
Being back to work really slowed my bench time but stole a few minutes to hang fenders today . I used the round headlights from the kit
In my case it's the lack of subject matter I'm interested in. I like different styles of trucks compared to every day road tractors , so scratchbuilding is my favorite
