BlackDragon Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 And for a time beeing the last one, a Mack Cruiseliner from Matchbox/AMT. The wheels are a combination of the rims from Dave Natale and the tires from Italeri. The window part of the kit was unusable, so i make a new one of a blister package from a headphone. Backlights and indicator lights are from CTM (czechtruckmodel). Mirror support is made with 0,6mm silver wire, antennas with 0,4mm steel wire. The next one on the workbench will be a Kenworth Bullnose from Illini Replica (many thanks to Bob, who has made possible to receive kits from him). Greetings, Michael 1
72 Charger Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Michael your Mack is very nice . The tanks look very realistic what did you do to them ?
10thumbs Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 This is another killer, I really like the way you finish your models. Very cleanly built.
BlackDragon Posted February 12, 2016 Author Posted February 12, 2016 Michael your Mack is very nice . The tanks look very realistic what did you do to them ?Thank you very much. I used the magic powder from Uschi van der Rosten. Is ist allowed to set the link here?http://www.uschivdr.com/products-in-detail/polishing-powders-metallic-pigments/On next kit i will remove the chrome from all parts and use the powder to get a uniformly look to all chrome parts.
72 Charger Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Those powders are great I think I will get some ASAP Thanks Michael
Old Buckaroo Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Wow, this is a great buildup. You do not see very many Mack Cruseliner's being shown.
towman1271 Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 You have some talent.. Can't wait for the bullnose
redneckrigger Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 Looks like a photo of the real truck! Very nice quality build!
Tesla Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 Great looking Mack and the powder yields a very realistic finish!
