  1. I am using google chrome as a browser so it is very easy to translate every thing. I was meaning that it would be better for the board and the other members to use English to understand each other. I can't recal but I think there is a board rulle about the language we are using. Kostas.
  2. Gentlemen use English please!!! It is very simple and easy for me to write here in Greek, but who can read Greek here??? This is an English writing board, so please keep it in English. I think its OK if you are use British English or US English, (I use a mix of both) but keep it in ENGLISH!!!! Kostas.
  3. With imagination and loads of styrene you can convert a toy excavator to a nice model. Kostas.
  4. Amazing result, a very nice replica, go for the trailer. Kostas.
  5. Keep it coming, I see no goofs with the curtains. You dare to do them so the next time you will do them better. Just keep your camera a few inches more away from the model. Kostas.
  6. Looking forward to see this done... Kostas.
  7. You have done great job so far with the hood and also woth the frame!!! This is a very interesting build, thank you for sharing this with us. When I reallised its going to be glider I first disapointed but then I though that this is going to make unique for sure. Keep it coming. Kostas.
  8. Nice color, nice work so far. Kostas.
  9. I like the way this truck looks so far. Eye cacthing two tone paint sheme, aluminum rear fenders and aluminum headache rack, what you need is a beal tanker to pull! I will have an eye on this one for sure, keep the good work coming. Kostas.
  10. You have build a very nice truck. Maybe you should add some decals of a company. I like both those Volvos 670/780 from Italeri, despite the fact that there is no engine and no steering wheels option. These are both nice kits, with a very promising interior to be detailed and of course a very new age fleet truck look. I wish I had bought more of these in the past, cause it looks like they are out stock nowdays here in Greece, especialy the 670. Would this truck look OK with the new Moebius reefer? Kostas.
  11. Very nice Peterbilt. I like all the details and the color combo too. Am I the only one thinking the Moebius Grate Dane reefer hooken on a RoG Peterbilt??? Kostas.
  12. NIce and clean built, cool interior!!! Kostas.
  13. Hi, I was looking for a choper like this one for a long time. This is what exactly I want. Could you please put a link of where to buy and maybe how much it costs. I am really interested about this tool. Kind regards, Kostas.
  14. Thank you Dave, thank you Moebius for this beautiful trailer. Kostas.
  15. Not because it is a Peterbilt, but this is gonna be a coooool truck. You have put a lot off work there and by sharing this here makes things to look easyer. I will keep an eye on this build for sure. Bravo & thank you for your tip. Kostas.
  16. Dave I have 2 questions, 1st, have you done any progress on the prosleeper? 2nd, Dave Metzner from Moebius models just announced that they doing a prostar, as far as you know in real life, do the lonestar and the prostar share the same cab? Will your Lonestar day cab be used with the Prostar or you will make a new daycab for the Prostar?? Greetings from Athens, Kostas.
  17. Evan, looks like a cool project. Kostas.
  18. Dennis, You have done very nice work so far and I would like to make a suggestion to you before its to late. If you are going to use that resin step/tool box, it would be better to remove the Peterbilt style frame mounted step mounts. There should be no need for them if you are going to use the step/tool box. So, before you apply any hand of primer, try to remove the frame mounted step mounts from the frame rail. Do it slowly and be patient in order not to cause any damage to the frame rail and also to save the steps for another project. I have already done this for my project http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=26447 because I will use four tool boxes. It is not to hard to remove those step mounts but as I wrote before, you have to be careful to avoid any damage. Kostas.
  19. Thank you Dave for these great news. I very curious to see some photos of both the prototypes and of course the first test shots. I want to believe that this will not take as long as it did for the Lonestar. Tim, lets send to Dave & Moebius a ''heavy cloud'' of mails asking for some newer Peterbilts!!! Who knows, maybe just the two of us, can preorder the needed quantity for Moebius to start a Peterbilt project. Kostas.
  20. Thank you guys, I am not alowed to spend much time for my trucks. My 19 months old girl is ''dads girl'' if you know what I mean so there is not much really free time.... I am jealous on how other guys here are finishing one truck after the other and then the other..... Kostas. undefined
  21. No, just the beds, not the sleeper. Interesting kit just because the back wall of the cab, the day cab back panel. Kostas.
  22. Nice and clean build Kostas.
  23. Those 1/16 big boys are out of my scale. I woudn't change 1/24 1/25 for nothing else. Well OK, maybe for a newer Peterbilt 389 I coundn't resist, but not for those old kits. I am not interested. I believe that model companies are looking for easy money by re-re-re-releasing the same models again and again, and they have lost their origin, to produse new models. Thinks are moving forward and so the hobby does and of cource our needs, wants and wishlists. I am very happy that Moebius gave us the Lonestar and I can see that something had changed, slowly but surely. Italeri is going to release two new models (IVECO STRALIS, EU TIMBER TRAILER) and as they anounced that both those two models are totaly brand new toolings. So I can only hope for one or two new Peterbilts from them in the future and Kostas.
