This is by far my favorite thread and favorite subject, thank you all for so much inspiration. I’d like to add a couple of my builds, both of which were completed well over 10 years ago. First the Italeri GMC CCKW. I tend to add homemade details such as wire tie-down loops, and for this truck I made tarpaulin bows out of flat brass stock, not really knowing (at the time) the details of the real things:
Next is the AFV Club Dodge WC52. For this model I fabricated the wading gear from a bass guitar string and some stainless wire for the breather pipe:
I’m currently working on both an M19 transporter from Merit and a Scammell transporter from Thunder Models. Fun builds that I’ll share as soon as I get some paint on them. Thanks all;
