Hello Guys, I did some cleaning out of my Photo Bucket account and also dropped a couple of other sites so I could concentrate on only posting on this one so I am re-posting some of my stuff here in the showroom. Paulie     |

That looks really good, I've been holding off on mine as I'm unsure of the base color green... what did you use? It looks right in the money!

Whenever I see a model of the Movin´On KW, I feel sad that this TV series was never aired in my country. Your model looks great out in the open. Nice built.

That looks really good, I've been holding off on mine as I'm unsure of the base color green... what did you use? It looks right in the money! Thank you! I tried hard to get this right and putting all the right stuff on it to make it like the series truck was the goal. I extended the frame for the double wide sleeper, I put the correct battery boxes on it on both sides and added the correct gull wing bumper. I have to go back and put a set of the Snap Pete horns on it next because they are the correct ones for this truck. I also used styrene tube to put the higher stacks on it like Sony's had. Also it has a set of the high back seats like it should from a snap Pete kit. I then recreated the graphics for it and they are digitaly printed on high performance vinyl. If I remember correctly I used Boyd's Dk Green from his Boyd's Custom Colors series. I shot it with my air brush right from the bottle over a light gray primer. Don't shoot it over the white it will have light and dark spots in it! I made this mistake as a kid on this truck and ruined a couple of them. This one is the first one I have ever done right! I have heard also silver would work well under that green. Don't forget to shoot the frame the same color as the tractor it was not black like a lot of people think it was! Thanks again for your comments I really appreciate the feedback. Paulie |
