Hi, I've decided to build a Unimog from the Heng Long truck

I have drawn by hand with the correct scale and then I have done it with a measuring rule so that the straight lines come out

I have drawn and pasted it on cardboard to make the pieces and have templates to make more than one truck

I hope you like it, greetings and thanks

Saw the first pics, and thought it looks meh. Just flat styrene. Seen a lot of people build stuff like that and it never looks good.
Then I scroll down...and I can see the layers of detail building up and it starts to look a bit more like the Unimog it's meant to be...and I get interested.
Then scroll down a bit more....and wow. The grille...the Merc badge, the roof. The interior....the dashboard detail, the seats, the storage box with handle....everywhere is detail, and all hand carved from plastic sheet. I would not like to guess how many hours have gone into this, but every minute was worth it.
This thing will look stunning with a nice paint job on it.
