Edmund,
That is fantastic! I like the back story and man does it fit. Question: Is the rebar threaded? If so, is it to scale? LOL
Cheers
Dave
With enough thrust, pigs fly just fine.
OK, Im back. Man nothing worse than holidays and family to throw a chink into your perfectly funtioning lifestyle....of course theres that new Iwata I got
ED~~@@@!!!!!! bro........ WoW, you g0t the thing on its wheels, and its the b0mb! SAAWeeeet! the hubs fit perfect. look great, but you spare rack is the tops!. great solution there, now that it s there, it seems plain it belonged there. With your luck you'l find a photo of one like that in a day or so!
"Well...you gunna pull them pistols, or just whistle Dixie?"
WOW, WOW and WOW
Ed you are a master, end of story and if no one likes it they can kiss my hairy
Bob
LOL!
You will have to bring your weapon and stand by by model at the Scale Model show in February holding a sign that states that!!
Thanks for the encouragement and the chuckles Bob!!
No problem. Heck I will even let the judges ahead of time know who is going to win
Something like
" Any freaking tag that says Edmond Schnable wins.............or I jam about 12 Tank resin figures up your you know what!"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!
Thanks for having back Bob!
That would be a terrible wasts of resin figures perhaps you should use Tamiya Kit included figures instead!
Schnobs HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH! Thanks for having back Bob! That would be a terrible wasts of resin figures perhaps you should use Tamiya Kit included figures instead!
OK Ill use Miniart figures
LMAO
AWESOME work buddy, and I'm with Bob, Wayne and Adam. Boy I'd love to be at that show to see the judges faces when they see this masterpiece. It doesn't get any better.
Rob
Mount looks perfectly at home Edmund! Sharp work on the scratch building addition. This one's really going to stand out with all the details you've been adding to it.

Please tell me you are bringing this one to the Evergreen show for '10. I would love to see this one up close. Oh yes, and the Saharaiana (sp)
Dave I want him to bring this and the shari. Because to be honest with ou if they walk pass it during judging I will have to kick someone in the face and bounce a head or two off the display table.
Bob, Adam, Wayne, Bill, and Dave thanks for the support and the chuckles last night they are appreciated.
Build update:
I finally glued all the components together for final weathering but couldn't;t resist applying additional weathering to the chassis and taking a few shots with only the cab and chassis. I really like it that way!
I then glued the truck bed to the chassis and here is the complete model and I am now Cortez i have burned my ships and I am committed!
I then applied the oil dot fading to the exterior adn interior truck bed using all MIG Abeitilung oil paints. i used Dark rust to simulate oxidized rust streaks in certain key areas
The next steps are stowage and figures!
Ed this is just too much and you've still got the figures and stowage to go. WOW
Thanks Tony it has been fun so far, I am looking forward to painting the figures and stowage, I have a few surprises planned that hopefully will turn out cool!
Stay tuned..............
AWESOME so far Ed, and still all the extras to add too, wow, can't wait buddy. Sorry the phone call was short last night Ed, had to run, wife was waiting on me. From what you said you wanted to add, this is going to be one fantastic looking model when done. Looking forward to seeing that tarp you'll be making.
I love these military truck kits- If only we 'bi scale' civilian truck guys had the choices you guys have!
I'd really like to apologize now for anything I may say or do later that offends you. Thank you.
WOW!
Rob: No worries Rob. Here is the tarp toot I was talking about. I think I sent it to you already but i can't remember.

Chuck: Thanks for the support Chuck! We don't see many of you truck guys over here. I know you guys kidnapped Karl and we would like him back please! I just Love these old Chevy's!
Bob: You Rock Sir!
Scnobs, that is great work!! Those figs look like they are pissed off at someone or something. I would not want to be in their way.

AAHHHahhahhaaaa~~@!!!! This is so good!
New shot too, a driver with arms!! What a concept. So glad Colorado Minatures decided to send you the arm they shorted you. Even if they said it was a "known issue" that they hadn't bothered to check before shipping and were'nt sure they wanted to go to the minor expense to ship it to you when you called them on it to keep you as a customer...........good choice on thier part ~~!! I guess that driver is wearing the Brit "fighting jerkin" heavy vest? Fashion wars!!!
One step closer Edmund...now get those figures painted and stop messin' around!
Stephen: Thank you Sir. New World Miniatures did a wonderful job on the figures but they did take a couple hours a piece for final detailing, sanding and priming. That's more of a reflection of my meticulous nature than any errors on their part.
Adam: LOL! The driver was actually quite a challenge yesterday because one arm had to fit on the steering wheel and the other on top of the shifter which is really lifelike and if I would have heard a lthe engine turn over I would have ran screaming from the room! The vest is a little different but should be fun to paint. I think the patrol raided a Gap Store.
Bill: Yes Sir! Actually i will be sitting the figures aside for awhile so I can concentrate on all the stowage and acquiring tarp skills! I just wanted them in primer to protect them and to get some cool shots. I wish people would come in primer they would be more interesting and surreal that way.
WOW.....WOW......WOW...WOW, That is awesome! I really like those figures there, and stowage too? you are definitely going to have a winner on your hands when you are done, heck, you already do!
Thanks, Jim
Schnobs I think the patrol raided a Gap Store.
I think the patrol raided a Gap Store.
Yeah, or maybe a Banana Republic ! Anyways I'm thinkin the drivers suposed to be wearing one a these :
Another bit of old 1st World War gear they just loved to keep wearing. Fight, Die, look good doing it!
Looks great, Edmund, but we had talked about a place to mount the Kukri/Ghurka knives, is that later or a change of plans>?
I've long wanted to try doing one of these in 1:25 scale using the Revell '41 Chevy pickup as a base- your build is great inspiration!
