Trailking120 Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Looks good. Are the stripes decals or painted on ?
tbill Posted January 11, 2014 Author Posted January 11, 2014 Thanks guys Justin, those are decals. no way I could ever paint those on, lol. I plan on bringing it to the april show, along with my mack logger and whatever else I can get done by then
kilrathy10 Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) Looks great, Man....Nice work on this one along with the trailer....Looks awesome....I like the black tanks, too.... Edited January 11, 2014 by kilrathy10
TRaymo Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Looks good! I have the 359 wrecker has all the same parts as this kit. Good to see what that headache rack looks like assembled. And glad to see a correct color on that 475! Kinda kills me to see a yellow Cummins or beige cat like the box art on the snap 359. Where did you get the reflective decal for the rear bumper?
tbill Posted January 11, 2014 Author Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) Travis, all the decals on this build are on the stock decal sheet. also, the rack, when you put it together, it doesn't create a perfect 90 degree angle, it kind of 'tilts' and looks wrong....until you put it on the frame, then it looks right. JT, thanks, the tanks were a beotch, the halves fit horrible, and I don't have any alclad yet, so I puttied/smoothed/filed and painted body color. I tried to BMF one of them, but couldn't make it nice, so went with paint and BMF'd the straps. Edited January 11, 2014 by tbill
flat-top Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Very nice, good job on the stripes. Looks good pulling that trailer.
tbill Posted January 11, 2014 Author Posted January 11, 2014 thanks for the kind words, glad you all like it
BigBad Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Nice! I like the black fuel tanks and headlight pods. Nice rig you have there!
weirich1 Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 That's an awesome combination, color matched all the way is cool!
Plastheniker Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Tom, even if I usually avoid dark colours on my models, this colour combination really works. Very nice detailing and execution!
FLD120 Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 I just got this kit. Looks just like the one on the box.
tbill Posted January 25, 2014 Author Posted January 25, 2014 thanks for the kind words, was a fun build.....other than the hood hinge and fuel tanks
