Brandon H The plates often get the most thought out of anything no my builds haha
TJ and JK frames are done now too. Each truck now only needs the body and interior parts completed. Though I had wanted to do them all in series, I now think I'll have much better luck doing them one at a time.

Brandon H Many irons in the fire... attention back on this one for now. Most parts just need clean up before paint; a few will get some minor modifications first.
Nigel Chapman @Bozzer nowadays everyone owns everyone else!
Scania and Navistar (International) are part of the VW-MAN group
Mercedes own Freightliner , Western Star and Detroit diesel
Paccar group own Kenworth, Peterbilt and DAF.
Volvo Trucks is fairly independent with their own US subsidiary
Iveco has always been Fiat owned
Renault own Mack
Back in the day Foden were Paccar ownedAnd ERF were badged as International and Western Star in New Zealand / Australia.
Alison Withonel If you want to build a full-detail LS400, Tamiya is repopping theirs this year. The AMT/Aoshima kit has better interior door panels (Tamiya's has a tub interior).
Brandon H On the other end of the snow spectrum, I thought I'd try my hand at recreating the bits of ice and snow left on a vehicle after a few hours on the highway. Very much enjoying working with the Tamiya diorama effects here.
Bozzer I've not got around to mine yet, but these are better than the Revell T600. Sure, there's typical AMT issues, but it's a pretty good build. I've seen and followed many builds, hence why I own both versions. The Revell one though, is a bit of a dog of a kit. Shame really, because I searched for it, for a while, then I found out the issues. Smart choice Brandon.
