Scratch built Mack with Refer

Another replica completed. Using my digital photo construction technique which consists of me photographing all the surfaces of the real truck, then scaling the photos to 1/43 scale and cutting out all the parts from the photographs. Then gluing all the parts together onto a plastic chassis. Finished product is basically a 3D photo replica.

That's pretty cool.

Great job, very nice looking rig.

Very cool. I wonder if this could be used to build plastic templates?

What do you mean by templates Benny? You can photograph anything and then cut out the photo and mount it on stiffer, thicker material then cut it out.
