    Something completely different completed

    Finally got the trailer painted up and decals on. This time the colour shift paint was cobalt blue. The only thing missing from both kits are the connections for brakes and electrics. For Christmas I have a copy of George Dents book on building trucks coming and he’s told me there is a section to help but for now here’s my first 1/24 pairing.

      Thanks Andrew, I’m beginning to think large scale is the way forward, symbolically doesn’t

        Hi Mick
        That looks great. These large scale trucks make really impressive models.

              Jim Tim and Lee many thanks. The paints spray really nicely especially if you read the instructions for a black base coat

                  Your welcome Mick. Seems I always have good luck priming with a flat black or dark grey color before the main color goes on.

                        She's a "Beauty" Mick and a nice pairing with the trailer. I'm not familiar with that tractor.....what make is it?
