Great paint job and weathering. 👍
IMHO, only he canvas top could be a bit more real.
Nice photos too.

I'm sorry but I have to agree with Rui. Other than that you've done a fantastic job on this, just outstanding!

Thanks guys. Regarding to canvas on roof, I liked effect of "ribs" that I achieved with painting with few shades of Sail color (purpose was to mask those sinkmarks on the roof), and in the end I was afraid I would spoil the final look with weathering, so I left it as it is. If I figure out how to weather it realistically I will definitelly do it. Thanks for the suggestions and constructive critiques once again.

Thank you for accepting my point of view (nice to help).
I only expressed it in order that you get my feedback and my opinion. You could always say that you only accept critics if I can do better. hehehe. 😄
Don't get me wrong the paint job on the truck is Great and I know it's very difficult to make a plastic canvas look like real canvas, (in my Opel Blitz I used tissue).
It looked to me that in your canvas top the paint job is too uniform and homogeneous. I think it would benefit with some different shadows between the ribs or differences between left and right, or even some stains??? But that's just my HO. 😎

Yup, you're right 100%! Ribs do look too uniform. Hm, see, I didn't remember of that tissue trick - I did use tissues for canvas parts on some of my other models, but didn't rememeber I could use it here over original roof to create "rough" look :-/ Now it's late for that, but I will try to make some stains with pigments and alcohol or thinner.

Album info

Very nice model of famous Ford T.
Parts are very nicely moulded, but at the same time some of them are very thin and fragile!
Painting of interior was done before final assembly.
Headlights and stop light were made with Kristal Klear.
Stop light was painted with Clear Red in the end.
Cockpit-roof belts are made of Tamiya tape.
Weathering is finished with MIG pigments.
All in all nice addition to my WW1 collection
