  1. Semi Casual do some amazing stuff. I was watching them on YouTube. Don't like all of it but they have amazing attention to detail. The potential on this is endless!
  2. Great looking job. Will be an excellent combination.
  3. Absolute work of art that Gary. Very tidy and clean too. A show truck. I love the stacks, you can't beat real metal.
  4. Nice job on the Cummins 855, chassis looks good too. Hope the kit isn't too vague for you, but you'll have experienced AMTs ways of doing things before, it's just a bigger version of "what goes where?"
  5. That's going to be a great trailer to pair with your Mack. Great combination.
  6. I know it's no comfort to you but I think it looks fantastic! Beyond my abilities.
  7. That is so clever! That's worthy of Jim Wangers that is. I do love his Pontiac adverts, just so clever.
  8. You're doing a great job on this. I like the wear on the diamond plate. The chains and pins look good too. It will look great with a load on it.
  9. Great looking truck, would be great to have one of those around
  10. Very clean build, great colour too. So many little touches on this rig, it's a real standout.
  11. Very nice job with some very nice features- opening doors, double sleeper, paint scheme, well done.
  12. When you get into fabbing stuff to the degree you have on this job you see how much work the kit makers have to put into each kit. It's a wonder anything can be built. Persevere, you'll sort it I'm sure. You can see the filter housing is too big from the kit.
  13. Nice install on the DD. Looks factree.
  14. Very "of its era" with the single drive and the tag axle. Love it. Like the pot belly trailer too, thinking of one myself.
  15. Really nice workaday piece of machinery. Well done.
  16. Great work here, I admire your scratchbuilt spring, takes some patience. I don't think I'd be able to get the wheels to sit square if I tried that.
  17. Yep, squares would look gooder. Good looking build mate, you're excelling again.
  18. Very realistic interior, well done. Could you put a reinforcement behind the bumper whilst it's held at the right angles? I find laminating scratch built stuff helps to maintain angles.
  19. This is an extraordinary build. You have demonstrated tremendous ingenuity in adding details to the build. You don't have to explain yourself, you do it because you want to and no one can criticise you because we're all as daft!
  20. Great work on the visor and the dash. This is going to look great. I feel for you on the doctor appointments, mine are nonstop, I've can't remember why I'm going half the time!
  21. That's a nice looking piece of machinery. Well done!
  22. The weathering on this is just brilliant. I love the rubbed circle on the hitch plate, very realistic. On the mudflaps, one method I use is to put a piece of bar in a vice, then put the tape across it and fold it back against itself. It's quite easy to align so there's no sticky surfaces exposed. Then I cut it to size. It quite often takes on a gentle curve of its own which mimics the real thing after a life spent being buffetted by the wind.
