Weathered AMT White Freightliner

[Dutzie]

Here is what’s on the bench. Still need to touch up the weathering on the frame and add some more detail to the cab. Put the truck on wheels last night. I kind of like the contrast between the weathered frame and the “new “ tires. What do you all think?

I can hear that diesel clatter and smell the fumes. When you gonna show us the model?

 

I would weather the tires.  One or two of them slightly differently than the others....

I like it!

Looking Good! I like the way you got the Cab built, no visible lines to see! It looks like one piece!

Looks great, suppose some weathering on the tire sidewalls would be right. Nice Consolidated Freightways livery too. So is it going to be a barebones job with a cut-off front bumper?

[Modelbuilder Mark]

looking great so far

You can never weather a CF truck too much. Looks real nice.

The FreightShaker is finished. All weathering has been applied and tires were dirtied up a bit.

Outstanding work on the build and weathering! You did an amazing job removing the infamous cab seam and fixing the steps - flawless! What do you think about putting some black on the door panel lines to give it some more depth?

Thanks Ron. Good point. I think black may stand out too much but a dark gray may look good. I will give it a shot.
