Monogram Tom Daniel's Garbage Truck

[PatW]

Built box stock with a few changes. The first was using the razor saw to remove the moulding on the bonnet. Then using most of the kit, painting in my choice of colours and using the rear panels as separate decal adverts, 7Up, hellaflush, and various surf,BMX,MBC prints. Oh and changing the wheel/tyre combo for Centrelines....

Well done looks cool, like the decal work.

Looks pretty cool. Does rear end still open? And is the band in there, ready to play? At least the girl in the short skirt?

[RAMBENNA]

now that is really cool, nice job

[shoopdog]

Pretty cool for sure.

[PatW]

Thanks guys. No the band isn't in there as I am no good at figure painting. But yes the door opens easily, because I was going to put a jet ski in there but can't find a kit one!

[slusher]

You built a cool and sharp version Pat..

[ChrisR]

Very nice!

[GTJUNIOR]

Clearly Scale has a jet ski available. Pics are on the facebook page, but not the website.

Thanks guys. But I don't do any social media but this one! I will research Clearly Scale and contact them, thanks for the tip Dan.

I really like the the decal graphite work on the back! Really nice!

Thanks Al, from a modelmaker of 60 years who couldn't and wouldn't chance making a real mess of decaling, to one that now sees all matter of images online and prints his own on both clear and white decal paper, and takes every opportunity to use them!

I've just finished a Rupp Snow Sport Dragster on 'Other Models'  'All the Rest' wanting to add decals to the model, just by fishing through my old decal stash and just cutting shapes out of old racing and rally cars to enhance the kit image.

I've been looking for a jet ski to go with this for some time and I've found one at Clearly Scale from Calgary Canada. I'ts a good quality resin cast kit with little to do before assembly and in my way I've given it a coloured camo finish!.

     Now that is just plain cool! I like the paint job on the surfboards.

Thanks Marc, the paints were large size rattle cans with high viz matt colours on one side and military colours on the other, sprayed on directly one after the other, not allowing either to dry! The decals are from the kit.
