AFV Club's Bussing Nag L4500S ... Truckin' !

My , my oh my once bitten twice shy baby .............

Welcome back ya long haired Sasquatch B)

Lookin good man where did you get the voyager set , I'm lookin fir the Blitz one where you make your own sides outta balsa or basswood .
 
Chyenne ! :drinks How th Hell are ya ? ... It's good to start to reconnect .... The Voyager set came from an E-Bay store -
Link not showing up - Check IM - I know this set isn't th one you're talkin' about, but It's th link. These Guys are deep in th Voyager sets !! Other things too. Awesome to deal with & just an hour & 1/2 up th road from Me, I've never been there so, I'm not sure what type of set up He has.

Sherman- Thanx for th kind words. Th foil looks cool on th seat ... & It's an excuse to eat Klondikes !! Th foil is less than a 1/16th". When you finish eating one , Rinse it off in Hot water , on th Wax paper side. Blot it dry & then start to separate the Wax paper from th foil, but be careful , th foil tears easily. It can be "ironed out" to eliminate most of the texture. It could be used to simulate Torn Sheet metal, upholstery , takes Primer & Paint very well. - * After primer coat, seal with Dulcote. I would paint it after forming it to prevent th paint from popping.

:mpup - Indeed ! Looks good torn as well. I've used it to simulate th Canvas on a Convertible Top boot, WindShield covers.


Here's another update & I've included th weathered Floor Board this time ! :rotf

Mud built up using Dental Plaster mixed with Dark Mud FX , Spots to look dry - African Dust pigments. Russian Earth also added to th Mud & sprinkled about. - I'll be adding some snow & a bit more mud to th mix in th Wheel wells !!
Also- if any one has some close up pix of the windshield of this truck ? There seems to be a missing piece?

Back to th Bench !!!
