cifenet Posted January 26 Posted January 26 It is really looking nice and clean, so far so good! Keep up the good work! 1

Would either of these function for your needs? Holmes 550 I believe. They could be printed in 1/32.

Shorten the fuel tank, installed all the glass, finished the interior, added the left mudflap, and painted the wrecker mass. The mass came out a little darker than the stripe but that’s ok kinda looks like Holmes red to me. Super job Lee! 1

Jürgen M. Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Looks really cool! The nice thing about printing is that you can choose any size or scale you want. 1

Jürgen M. Posted January 27 Posted January 27 I meant the parts or did I get that wrong that they were 3D printed? Sorry If I did!

Bren Posted January 28 Posted January 28 (edited) Everyone seems to be talking about something different on this thread🫣. Sorry if I caused the confusion. I thought you were looking for wrecker parts in 1/32. However as Jurgen points out - you can print in any scale - these are actually 1/25 as published - and could be printed 100% for 1/25. I was just enquiring if these were the sorts of parts you were looking for. If they are - they are available on Cults. If not - no worries - just ignore. And yes - this is a great build! Nicely done.
