Well the time finally came to work on the trailer decals. I've gotta say this first, Jerry Reeter makes a fantastic decal sheet !!! Theres several large sections, that in our case have to lay down over rivets, and panel lines. I trimmed one section to fit inside the aluminum rails..and after several procrastinating episodes..splashed them in water . Working very slowly w q tips and paper towel, I worked the decal into place . I trimmed section 2 , and noticed there was about 1/4 " overlap. Checking multiple times where the overlap would fall..right over a strip of rivets...not happening. Trimming off a few 1/16ths.. and extra decal from top and bottom.. The overlap.. After checking everything several times not wanting to mess these up..the next panel went swimming I brushed some decal solvent over the rivets after working the water out , and letting things dry overnight. Ohh..that's not Charmin either..only angel soft in our house lol -

Painted the bumper and skirts Satin black, really like the contrast. my container of super clean is full of chrome parts getting stripped of bling since we're building fleet rigs . The visor and mirrors will be body color, the rest will end up alum plate or SS -
2020 TP build
gotnitro? replied to gotnitro?'s topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I have a feeling these trucks would need armored guards bringing them into towns after wandering thru the grocery stores lol ! As much a panic it would cause right now...a convoy of Abrams tanks and Apaches overhead would make for an interesting break from being inside on quarantine -

2020 TP build
gotnitro? replied to gotnitro?'s topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Tom your really knocking this quarantine build out !!! I've been bashing away too , the siren song from the Prostar box was too much resist..so I drove right in ... we decided ealry on to build a fleet truck, so steel wheels are going on. I'm using a mix of Double Takes wheels and moluminum. The frame flew together, and the engine is peeking from the back, along w the partially assembled cab shell. Since the primer was nearby, and keeping the fun going , I grabbed the hood and sprayed a coat of tamiya fine white thanks for following ! -
