I have to agree about the wheels and tyres, apart from that it's a great kit but the vinyl tyres are truly awful. I replaced them with Italeri rubber tyres, the diameter is ok but they are wider so you have to space the rims out with plastic card. Thanks for posting the video, some useful tips and ideas.

First off, you did an excellent job on this kit and, like the other comments that were posted, the colors look amazing. I hope you are open to a little constructive criticism and I am definitely nit picking. You did a nice job on weathering the engine, which leads me to believe you are trying to capture some realism to the model. However the frame work is absolutely clean. You may wish to consider adding some weathering to the frame, shock mounts etc. to complete the weathering effect. Once again, I think you did a fantastic job on this kit, please don't think I'm downing your work. I just wanted to make a suggestion that your may wish to follow on future builds. I almost did not make this comment for fear of being misunderstood. Again, its just a suggestion. Your model is fantastic! Oh! and I like the music too!

Hey, not a problem. I'm always open to constructive criticism, that's how we all improve. I had actually planned on weathering the frame and other parts of the truck but it came out looking so nice I decided to leave it. Some times I am criticized for adding "too much" weathering to my builds. Thanks for the honesty and the constructive criticism and I am glad you liked the build, and the music. have a great week.

This is a great kit if you're just jonesin for a good reliable quick build! I've done 3 or 4 of these kits,and they look fantastic as a straight build. Outta the box! Probably some of cleanest looking builds. I've modified one,stretched the frame put a 3rd drive axle and a big ol tank on it. Was one of most finiky mods I've done. The frame and the way it goes together just don't lend themselves to modifications. That said, I like the kit! Will probably buy more! It would be an excellent first kit for somebody who hasn't built a semi before!

Question: Does the oven cleaner foam removes the chrome AND the lacquer that is between the chrome and the plastic? Until now I've used bleach, but the bleach only removes the chrome but not the lacquer that they use on the sprues before applying the chrome.
@PlasticImaginationWorkshop
Жыл бұрын
It does remove most of it but it will still leave some of the lacquer behind. That said, if your goal is to paint the parts, any good primer will adhere to the parts even if there is still some lacquer left behind, unlike the chrome plating. After the primer has dried, the parts can be painted just like any other part. I hope this helps.

Ouch, that sucks, sorry... Only suggestion would to be pinning it. If you watch my "Hank the Tank" video, I show pinning one of the wheels that snapped off, which sounds like what may have happened to you. The pinning process is the same. Drill a small hole, in the shaft and in the part on the wheel. Use a short pin, or part of a paper clip, glue it in both sides. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching and have a great day.

Hi Liam. I am assuming your referring the the "wheels" and not the tires? My wheels didn't want to stay on either so I just used a little super glue to keep them from falling off. They should snap into place but mine didn't. The downside is that the wheels will no longer rotate. I hope this helps, thanks for watching and commenting. Have a great day. -David

Is this one of the original kits or is it a reboot of the newer "snap" type kits?
@PlasticImaginationWorkshop
Жыл бұрын
Great question, thanks for asking. This one came out in 2020 but it was just an updated box. The previous update was the box and decals. However, and this is where it gets confusing, if you follow the history on Scalemates you can see that this version was upgraded from the original (Monogram kit) back in 1982 and that WAS a snap kit. The first version of this that was released as NOT a snap kit (now under Revelle) was back in 2006. Even if this kit is somewhat based on the snap kit, it does require glue for everything to fit properly. Sorry, I went on a little too much there but that's the story. I hope this answers your question. Thanks for watching, have a great day. -David
