Greetings ladies and gentlemen, I present you the euro truck fire pumper build by Revell which was absolutely awesome to put together and had almost 0 fitment issues other than the cab and fenders. Over 300 parts almost and very complicated painting, this thing ate 2 cans of rustoleun primer, aluminum, over 10 Revell tinlets of fiery red and aluminum. A paint eater for Sure and 2 rolls of blue tape. I don't have time now because I'm already sanding the Mercedes lf 16 kit, haha hope you like this and get inspired to do more fire trucks!

Excellent work!  Design-wise it looks like Revell nailed the details, but your assembly and paint work really bring that thing to life.

Question: I have some of those Revell Fire Red tinlets I want to use on a car model.  I've never used this paint before and was wondering how well it airbrushes, and if it gives good coverage without requiring multiple coats.

Its very good just use some thinner can be rather thick, and opening them is somewhat of a pain i just poured many into empty tamiya bottles for easier use. They offer nice euro colors that really give you some sort of german/austrian feel. The paints love red primer.
