this is pretty cool, will be following along for sure on this one.

wow, nice combo! glad you dusted it off and showed us, great looking builds.

so where are the models?? great work, they look real.

ooohh...I like that! looks great

agreed! lovin this build!

as long as you're still plugging away, it's all good although a new pic or two wouldn't hurt

don't sweat the frames, so far all of mine have come out 'square' for the most part. all my wheels touch the ground, lol. bit of advice though, build as much of the frame/running gear before you paint, I find that way if it does come out a bit 'off', you can 'tweak it' some without wrecking stuff. that and it cuts down on ruined paint from possible too much glue while putting bits on. that's how I do it anyway. hope this helps some.

Kevin, that fire truck is too cool! that is awesome!!

wow, that's incredible! great build......unreal.....just too cool....

welcome to the 'dark side', lol. nice group of kits you have there, you should have a lot of fun building those. as mentioned, hanks has a ton of reference pic's. fair warning, that tanker kit is a tough build, but if you are patient, it can turn out pretty good. best of luck, and look forward to seeing your work/progress.

Alan, it's perfect as is [in my opinion], I wouldn't mess with success

I must say, I am in awe of your work, just fantastic stuff

thanks guys few more pic's, a little look at what the hood looks like, and got the tanks painted [look good in pic, but not happy with them, not sure what I will do with them....] got some more stuff glued to the motor, and painted a bunch more odds and ends, if I get time in the next 3 days, should make a lot of progress. thanks for following along....

any updates???

yes, it has been interesting lately......

wow, fantastic! i just love this.

thats a great looking truck!

that bumper looks fabulous, great job!

wow, that is dynamite! great looking combo, well done.

that is cool! time to rework a revell car hauler to mate up to that

nice work, that's beautiful.

Dennis, that came out terrific! excavator looks great as well, fabulous job on both. truck ain't too shabby either

thanks guys didn't get anything done last night due to power outage/storms, had some tornado's touch down too.....in central NY...crazy weather I tell ya. hope to have some more progress pic's tomorrow. managed to paint up all the motor parts, glued the transmission on, and have hood in base coat of white. stay tuned......

nice bunch JW, good looking selection of trucks

Dennis, wheels are what is in the kit, i just 'rolled' with it was worried about the greens i chose, but the more i look at it, the more i like it hope to have the motor bolted together tonight [atleast most of it]
