Warren D Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Very well done, I like the crisp line between the colors. What do you use for masking? Everything I've tried has bleed to some degree or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Warren. I have found that Tamiya tape works best, but I do have trouble with residue. Lacquer paint also seems to help. A thin fast drying coat as opposed to the slow drying seeping enamel.

As soon as I finish the trailer, I think that the fleet will be done, at least for now. On 11/17/2023 at 6:49 AM, chuckyr said: The series continues. Thanks Chuck!! That is a B-67 that actually resides at the Transportation Museum not very far from where I live. I have several pictures of it. It was the inspiration truck for this build, especially the air starter tank. On 11/17/2023 at 6:51 AM, David G. said: A gorgeous build! It has a good feeling of mass to it. David G.

1959scudetto Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 (edited) Fantastic work, Brian ! These fleet trucks look a lot better than those pimped-up, customized "truck-rods" to me - a very, very nice and realistic build!
