        Amazing work Charles,your work is certainly inspirational and also just shows us what you can do with these kits!


        How many hours did you put into this?


        Cheers,Ben

          Looking at the pictures, I had to keep reminding myself this is a model. The realistic finish on this is not almost perfect, IT IS perfect!!


          To get plastic to this finish making someone disbelieve their eyes is truly remarkable.

            Thanks a lot. The models are actually old models that i had built a long time ago and had used them in another diorama. I just gave them a make over. So the actual make over took a couple of days to do.

              Kind regards Dave. Appreciate the comments and support you all have given me. I always believe a truck should look the part and not just look like a show truck.


              I just love real world look on any model.

                As always a pleasure to see a masters finished work (although I know your secret (its a real truck)) just haven't figured out how you do the backgrounds.

                  I can't add anything to what has already been said but if I could get one of my builds to look half as realistic as this I would be happy. top marks on an excellent build Charles.

                      You can and will. The process used is easy. Just a matter of getting it right.

                          Well you've certainly done a cracking job in two days! its nice to do a restoration type build once in a while

                            Sure does Ben. I was not totally satisfy with the original builds so I decided to spice them up a bit.

                              That is a superb build Charles. Very nicely weathered and dusted, your build has achieved a life-like look.
