Sorry, did not see your reply, the resin kit for the Peterbilt is from American Industrial Truck Models. How i make the trailer can you see here:

Hello,
in 2017 i do not built up any US Truck. Made some WWI tanks and dioramas, but now I'm back. Sure you think, puh, the next Peterbilt, one of a million others. Yes, of course, I think so too. I built up this Revell of Germany Kit several times in my life and can't see it nor more longer. ;-) So I decided to give him a last chance and built my own Peterbilt anniversary edition in gold. Never ever i will build up this kit.
Changes on this build were:
Mudflaps, battery boxes, frame steps, cab guards, windshield wipers, dashboard, spokes of the steering wheel, backlights, headlights and turn signals are photechted parts from czechtruckmodel.
The grille mesh, peterbilt logos and the reflectors at the fenders are photechted parts from MBM Munich.
Rear fenders and air cleaners are from a Peterbilt 378 from Italeri.
Wheels are from Moebius, the exhaust stacks were made from aluminium tubes.
Color is Mayan Gold from General Motors.Have fun with the pictures and thank you very much for looking in.
Best wishes for all of you, Michael

Cool! Is 350 cab a diecast model?
-
Awesome, only awesome! Happy New Year to you too.

Truck came out very nice. Are those the photo etch head lights too?
Yes, those are from CTM too. They are available for AMT: http://www.czechtruckmodel.com/eshop/index.php?id_product=96&controller=product
and Revell Kits : http://www.czechtruckmodel.com/eshop/index.php?id_product=95&controller=product
Very nice work. This is a simple but effective conversion kit. Youve inspired me to order the PE set myself.
It is really worth the cost, but be aware for all the parts you need more than the conversion kit itself, i used :
The conversion kit: http://www.czechtruckmodel.com/eshop/index.php?id_product=110&controller=product
Interior: http://www.czechtruckmodel.com/eshop/index.php?id_product=108&controller=product
Working Lights: http://www.czechtruckmodel.com/eshop/index.php?id_product=105&controller=product
Tail lights : http://www.czechtruckmodel.com/eshop/index.php?id_product=91&controller=product
and the front lights for Amt, see the link above
I thank you all very much for your friendly comments and wish you a happy new year 2017.

Thank you JT, but the dashboard was not much work, these are pre-painted photoetch parts from czechtruckmodel.com
-
Thank you! The seats were painted with Vallejo Mahagony Brown and then put on a washing with 'Dark Wash' from MIG.
-
Very nice, i like the color.
-
Wonderful KJ! Can't wait to see the cab on the frame.
-
Brian, the paintjob is really awesome, beautiful!
-
Merry Christmas to all. Really nice gifts under the tree.

Rest in peace Gino!

Only four trucks and a trailer.
The fourth is a special model built up in the name of Revell of German for the 'Kölner Modellbauforum' (Cologne Modelforum).

Hello Together, the last one for this year. A Hayes Clipper 100, Base Kit is the reissue Peterbilt 352 from Round 2, I used some kits from czechtruckmodel to convert it to a Hayes. I wish you peaceful christmas days and a happy new year 2017. The licence plate was corrected after i make the pictures.
-
Thank you very much. Jacobus, you must build it, the kit is really good and makes lot of fun.
-
Thanks very much to all! I wish you all merry christmas and a happy new year.

My only feedback would be to weather the trailer sides some to tie it together with the weathered front and back and bring down some of the toylike shine to the chrome sides. Otherwise, looks great.
You're right, that's the fault, next time i make it without any foil. Tank you all for your friendly comments.

Thank you very much, here it got a trailer: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/118425-50-great-dane-trailer/

Hello Together,
my first try to use a saw and cast parts with resin. Not perfect, but i like it and the next one will get better.
Best wishes to all, Michael
-
Now he is ready, i casted the Backdoor, glued aluminium foil on the side and polished the front and the back with chrome powder. The hole thing is not perfect, but my first try to do as is.
Best wishes to all, Michael
