Ack! Ack-ack! Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 So many kits, so little time, this is my first finished model for about a year. Not much to say about this Italeri kit, it is almost perfect, even if the typical Italeri multi-piece cabs are nothing for beginners.

vincen47 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 That’s a color you don’t see much, what paint is that? Nice look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilrathy10 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I love these things.... This is one of my favorite models to see built up... It was my first Italeri model I had ever done... You did a very good job on it... I like the color, too... Very clean build.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills72sj Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Nice truck. What is the story with the gap between the cab and the sleeper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutzie Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Great looking build. These trucks are great builders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plastheniker Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Moin Thomas, another clean result from you. Usually I am no friend of metallics on truck models but this particular shade looks really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brinx Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Looks great Thomas, I've had one for several years, but I keep passing by as the multi-piece cab looks rather intimidating. Your finished product (especially the color) is giving me inspiration to have a go at it (after all, I was able to put the AMT Freightliner on the road...even in the driver gets rain drips in sleeper).

Oldmopars Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I have one of these kits in progress too. The cab to sleeper fit is odd, but I think it is the same on the 1:1 truck also. The cab is just like the Louisville cab and so the sleeper is kind of an afterthought. In the picture of the real truck you can see that there is a gap between the cab and the sleeper. Great job on this build, the color is a great fit for this era of truck. Looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
