Well, now that issue 213 of MCM is in the mailboxes, I can post this one up.

Italeri's Volvo FH16 520.

I really like building Italeri truck kits, and this one turned out really nice.

Yes, the 5th wheel in the pics is flipped up. Ahh well. lolz.

I went with Tamiya's Gloss Aluminum for paint, with a Duplicolour metallic grey on the chassis. Engine is a Tamiya green of some kind.

 

I really need to hurry up and build one of my Euro trailers to go with this.

I too love building Italeri Kits. They build so nice. This turned out great, very nicely done. 

Cool Truck.

Great looking Volvo.

Italeri kits are nice, but I really struggle with the cabs.  Probably just a lack of experience.

Great looking build, Dan! I really like the look of these trucks. Great job.
