Anybody like straight trucks?
Kostas Parchas replied to Kit Basher's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
OK straight trucks is not my favorite, but living in Europe I can see too many of the kind, because these are also very popular for tranzit from one country to another. I am building two of these, the first one is an old SCANIA 141 tracktor converted to straight wooden flabed truck and the other is a SCANIA 143M470 tracktor also converted to straight truck but this one going to be a curtain sider What you see in these pictures in white is styrene. Hope you like my builds, Kostas. -
A TRUE scratchbuilder
Kostas Parchas replied to mardtrp's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I have to agree with you guys. I am trying every time to do my best. I have already throw away many sheets of plastic because I was disapointed from the end result. But every time I am doing the same thing, I am starting from the begin. I am not afraid to scrap some styrene and I am always fighting to reach at least what I want to replicate and of course I am investing money to buy tools, that will help me the next time to built something else more easy and correct. My latest tool was a dremel multi tool that I bought last week. I am trying also to invert my tools. Kostas. -
Kenworth VIT200
Kostas Parchas replied to checkmate's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
What I see here is a very nice truck! A clean and fine build. I like the way it looks, brings back memories of 70s & 80s. But I have a question, its ok with me if you laugh there What are the diferences between VIT200 and K100 Aerobyne and further more K123? They look just the same in my eyes. Thanks in advance, Kostas. -

Kenworth T2000
Kostas Parchas replied to QCDOC's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I like it very much!!! Did you used the PETERBILT 377 frame? I think that the rear end of the side skirts is too close to the drive axles. Will you strech this frame a little bit or you gonna use another frame? Kostas. PS I can see another resin kit in that box under your bench, is that also from de-elegant? Can you post photos? -

Kenworth T2000
Kostas Parchas replied to QCDOC's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
QCDOC, I am very happy that you are back again to this model. I am very curious about the final result because I have never seen this kit before completed. I also thinking very seriously to try to correct my damaged T2000 hood. Good luck to this.. Kostas. -
Hello guys, I am Kostas and this is my first post here in the diorama forum (I am a modeltruck guy). If I am correct this airport is part of the biggest HO scale layout in the world, MINIATURE WUNDERLAND. Miniature Wunderland is located in Hambourg Germany and was created by two brothers. Nowadys they have about 100 employes. The airport is the latest addition in this layout. Here is a link to their main page http://www.miniatur-wunderland.de/ You can see & watch many pictures and videos if you google miniature wunderlad. Also somewere in their site, there is an archive list, listing weekly reports about new sections of this incredible layout. Hope this helps.
