Kenworth W900 Aerodyne 1:25 scale (Revell)

A really nice looking build that - well done. I do like that colour you've used on the bodywork and you did a nice job on the interior and the engine. The Aerodynes are great looking trucks, I really wish they'd re-release the 1/25 cabover kit - they're hard to find these days.

Looking forward to seeing this complete.

Cheers!

Oh and I like the avatar!

thanks that means alot. JW was my character example growing up. Kids now days need someone to look up to and teach them good character rather that all this BS activist this n that and anti america BS.

We need another Duke type hero.

Ahem to that - back in the days when men were men and we knew what that was supposed to be.

I always loved JW's films as a kid - I always thought he was a good actor... Actually I might have to dig one of his films out of my DVD's collection and put it on.
 
Question - when this is 100% finished, if i wanted to, i could spray the whole thing with clear, windows, chrome, everything and no harm done, is that correct?
 
clear, windows
NO!!! The windows will frost and ech your chrome will turn to a flat color silver you basically will ruin your model and the clear may have a reaction to the paint you use and crows feet and crack. If you want to clear coat it use pledge floor polish and gently brush it on works every time. But I would leave the windows alone just in case. But many of us "Wingy" guys use floor polish on our canopy but it's not a big part like your windows and we dip it and let dry. You may get running effects because you didn't dip your windows in floor polish before you installed them. Glad you asked first before you proceeded.

I will leave it as is when done. Thanks so much for the quick reply. I made some custom decals and waiting for them to dry. I learned many things on this build including alot about custom decal creation. :) I will post some final pics when im done.
 
Your very welcome. Make sure you seal those decals with a decal sealant or try out your clear on a little piece of one or when they hit the water you will have a color party all the ink will come off the receiver paper.
Thanks, Yeah been there done that a week or so ago. As soon as i touched it, it went poof in a kazillion pixels right in my hand lol Thats because i did not read the directions, ya know its a guy thing... we dont need no stinkin directions lol

Actually we do... yeah they are sprayed with clear and drying...

Wait that came out the wrong way "As soon as i touched it, it went poof in a kazillion pixels right in my hand" lol

Be sure to post the finish I would like to see how your decals turned out.
 
I decided to try to find another rear fender to cover the other set of tires (kit does not include 2, just 1). I thought i was gonna have to contact revell in germany, but i was curious i was amazed i found one on ebay.

I was going to leave a link but the item was removed after it was sold to me. Aehhh $12 including shipping.

But here is a pic.

Interesting, so i was not aware that people took models and parted them out on ebay, i bet they make a ton doing that.
