The tractor unit is mostly heavily modified from two kits and some minor scratch building and kit bashing. The trailer is scratch built. Still looking for a load for this thing. Not an easy task when there are only a couple to choose from. Of course they are expensive. For now it will remain as is until I can figure out what to put on it without breaking the bank.

Very nice work! The weathering is excellent and it looks as if it just left the delivery site. :)

Charles, you are the king of realistic finishes! It really is hard to tell that this is a model without real world items in the scene.

Damn, that looks very real indeed. Absolutely gorgeous work, that is, and my hat is off to you for it.

Well Done!! As the guys have been saying, hard to tell that's not a real truck without something in the pic to scale it against - and I just love your weathering! Absolutely perfect!! :)

Just incredible museum-quality work! I can almost smell the diesel fumes!
You've really got the distressed "wear-and-tear" look down pat. Talk about amazing talent!

Thanks everyone. Btw, outside photos always help make model look realitic when taken right. That's why I try and as many outside photos with my models as possible, when I can.

And again with the photoshopping! :o
Awesome work, mate! Brilliant! :)

Thanks again. Much appreciated.
