Been a while since i did a thread in this section.
I got this kit a few days ago and started building it.
Everything about it is huge compared to a normal truck kit and just for fun i have put my Bedford beside it to show the sizedifference between them.
They are roughly from the same era and both are 1/24.
Just the gearbox of this thing is bigger then the engine for the bedford.
It is soon time to paint things so i can keep building it.

Pierre nice details on your truck frame and engine. What kit is this? 

Thank you.
It is a Revell kit.

The bed is complete now and just have to paint the details on it.

I think i am going to make the crossbars look like real wood to even if they are not seen if i choose to use the tarp.

Not sure if i am going to paint the tarp beige as they want or keep it this way because that is what i am used to see in reality.

Also just put the hood on it just to see if there are any problems with it and there were some i have to fix.
