mbdesignart Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 (edited) Having recently joined a Facebook Group related to Truck modelling, something I was into a while back, I found this hiding amongst some built kits. A couple of scratch items, the mesh walkway and air lines added. Oil wash over Tamiya rattle can.

Alan R Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I built one of these at least 30 years ago. Nowhere near as good as yours though... Fantastic. Cheers, Alan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockeyboy76 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Looks great. I learnt to drive Artics in one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in Lincs Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Lovely and scruffy. Where's me Karcher?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbdesignart Posted June 1, 2017 Author Share Posted June 1, 2017 Thanks for the kind comments. I also scratchbuilt a chemical tanker to go with this which may be in another box somewhere? I had a spell of doing quite a few trucks years ago, with some still in the stash to build. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too and it was the same colour as this one (normally a bit cleaner, though!) Lovely model, by the way; any chance of some pics with the trailer?

Can't find the trailer, it must have been lost in a house move, however I did dig up some old AFV builds whilst rummaging in the loft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I really like that! I especially like that you weathered it - looking like most trucks we see on the road and not like entrants in a Concours d'elegance. Excellent work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
