I want to build a realistic truck that looks like those "monster" trucks hoping I can do that in the future 😜 😁

I'm trying not to make a mess of the engine so far I'm satisfied with the look of the chassis and engine together looking great πŸ’―πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

Looks like the engine will sit "in scale" about maybe 3 1/2 - 4" in comparison to the real truck I used the Raminator and 97 F-150 engine to build this monster engine I'm satisfied with the outcome ❀️ πŸ‘πŸ˜Ž

Great progress so far! Engine looks great and chassis looks super nice! I do have the Bigfoot AMT kits that I have started

Thanks I forgot to mention that the engine will look like it's sitting higher on the model compared to the real truck, I have two other monster truck kits in the photos I've posted I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the destroyer II kit I plan on getting three other ninja turtle kits and I'll get started on those once they're all hereπŸ‘‹πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘ take care and see you on the next oneΒ

Hey I'm back after a break with some small updates, I just did an entire "paint cycle" on the engine before it goes into the chassis so while that dries up I'm going to work on a few chassis pieces and then get started on the decals πŸ™‚ πŸ™ hopefully all goes well with that...

Here is what I've done on the chassis might be a little bit unnoticeable I am now pretty much finished with the chassis minus the little white spots all over and the mounting of the engine and cab components and suspensionΒ

So finally got the engine in the chassis and finished with the wiring of the engine now onto the cab, seat, switches, and suspension components still have to scratch build a radiator and gearbox we're getting close to the end of this one πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜πŸ‘

Small update here from the past few days I took a break usually I end up looking at reference photos and getting back to things, so here's what I've done, after I get these on the chassis it's transfer case time β˜ΊοΈπŸ˜πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘
