Finished up this kit yesterday and I have to say I really enjoyed building this kit after a long time building a kit has finally started to feel good again. No major issues, no fitment issues. Made a few mistakes with decals but got them fixed. Painted with Tamiya wooden deck tan and used clear resin over the clear tamiya paints for all the marker lights. Stowage is a mix of Meng and random pieces saved from other kits.
Nicely done. I may have said this before, but you do a great job of decaling, the the one pointing out the fluids.
Looks great. I have built this and a few other of the Trumpeter trucks and they are all equally great. I really like them.
Thank you, decals are one of the few things I got down to a science after all these years and with this kit I really wanted to get them looking as good as possible.
Thank you, Trumpeter kits sure have improved over the years nothing like I remember them being.
Blinker fuids?
Yeah, and grid squares.
blinker fluid is normally located next to the horn oil filler.
Don’t forget the buckets of prop wash, and the PRC-E6s
Ignition keys.. who’s got the keys?
Dang it! I left them in the garage next to the bottle of radio squelch! ![]()
