Thanks CTSpeedshop, yeah I wanted to continue on the theme of the pyramid so decided to do a step type on the piping.

Haven't done much to the truck since the hydro plumbing, been working on a back drop for the warrior, I have a bunch of 3d sign foam and decided this truck needed a diorama, so this is the back of the diorama been carving the design in to the foam, more to come.

This is just getting better and better Dude!
I really am in awe of this build, oh, and Thank You for the info on the sign board foam,
just so happens my Son works in a Graphics shop and they have a sign department
I am interested to see how the sharipe/candy paint works out, that could have some use if it "works" for You
thank You for sharing with Us here
