Re: Heng long based scratchbuilit 6x6 truck.
Morning all,
I took advantage of the nice weather we had over the weekend here in the UK and got the deuce truck primed. I finished adding the majority of detail items so I stripped it all down as it will be easier to paint in the spray booth, really happy how the new 3D printed cab looks now with a bit of modification, the only bits to survive from the original heng long truck are the chassis rails, axels and seats, next up is to throw some olive drab at it
Cheers, Lee.

Re: Heng long based scratchbuilit 6x6 truck.
Morning all,
Its been a while since this truck has had some attention, I finished making the canvas cover for the cab roof yesterday and it's now secured on, so far it's only had a lick of tamiya olive drab as the base coat and next I'm going to be using the mig ammo olive drab paint modulation set to give it some depth/detailing and then a little weathering and decals, I've added a couple of pics of the work so far
Cheers, Lee.

Re: Heng long based scratchbuilit 6x6 truck.
Thank you Will, the wheels do make a big difference to the overall look of the truck, it may take away from it's off road capabilities but I'm not planning on doing a lot of that with it
