I agree with Thomas.

It is very nice. Just, if I may,... The decals on the doors should be cut to show the gap between door and frame. The quality of the rest requires this little thing.

Of course you may Olivier! you are right about the decals. I did not know about decal setting liquid at that time 🙂 Going to fix it!

Growing up, I always loved seeing those trucks in our streets! 👍

Thanks Chris. And you are right Patrick. It's a pity that I have not seen one in years on the road. But we keep them alive with our hobby 🙂 🙂.

And meanwhile..I fixed the decals. Learned that it's better to cut them before applying the decal softener.. (left hand side cut wet and right hand side cut dry)

The dry side is clearly better. Thanks for going through the whole process. It became a lesson for quite a few of us I am sure.

Album info

Not aware of how to deal with seam lines, almost afraid of weathering and way before Jan Rosecky published "the complete guide to truck modelling", I did my best to make something of it. Without any basic wiring or further detailing it's an almost out of the box build. After years of lying somewhere in the basement I picked it up and finished it. Trying to hide the fingerprints on the windows 🙂. But it deserves a place between my albums after I did some basic weathering today.
