Very well executed! A friend drove one of those many years ago, shorter wheel base and in Kimberly Clark pink. I think that was the only time in 40+ years he didn't run with a CB!

Thanks! Thanks, I gave up trying to paint the stripes and went with decals. Thanks, trying some different products. Thanks! -
Autocar Wrecker
Warren D replied to Warren D's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Long overdue update, cab is painted and on the chassis. Wrecker bed is almost finished, waiting to get it on the chassis to add the delicate details. Lots of time spent waiting for the paint to set up. While the acrylics set up fast, I've been finding the longer I wait, the better things go, especially with different brands. This build has paints by Tamiya, Pollyscale and Testors Aztek. -

2023 BRBO GMC Topkick Fuel Oil Delivery
Warren D replied to Warren D's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Thanks, the grille was actually easy, I shot the whole thing in black Pollyscale and then ran a Molotow pen on the raised portion. The trick was even pressure and speed. -

Nice job on a light duty wrecker. -
2023 BRBO GMC Topkick Fuel Oil Delivery
Warren D replied to Warren D's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Thanks, and thanks for your advice! Some (maybe most) of these builds are like waffles, the first one is a throw away! If I did one again, I know there are things I'd do differently. -
2023 BRBO GMC Topkick Fuel Oil Delivery
Warren D replied to Warren D's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Thanks, I really hated these mirrors. I had the rest finished almost a week ago and just couldn't bring myself to do the mirrors. I finally decided I wanted to get it finished so it took all day (had to do things in stages) but it got done. The Topkick mirrors are certainly different..... -

Now that I see the photos, I don't like the way the cab sits, back is lower. It's now fixed but I'm letting the glue set up before I move it for new pics. -

Calling it done. Resin GMC Topkick off the auction site along with the 3D printed tank body. Chassis from the Int 4300 except the rear suspension and axle from the Freightliner SD. Sanders from CTM and storage box from AITM. Roman Oil is a real company that has been in business for a few generations though I don't think they ever ran a Topkick. Well, turns out they did run GMC's up to the late 90's when they switched to Petes.

Carolina Freight B-61 Mack

Very well done, I like the crisp line between the colors. What do you use for masking? Everything I've tried has bleed to some degree or another.
