Way cool Dave! It’s hard to think of something to do with the Li’l series that hasn’t been done before, but you did it! Love it!

MAN! Those logs sure look real! Thanks! I bought a bag of craft driftwood at Hobby Lobby, cut them to length and look like a logger cut them. A coat of gray paint, dry brush brown and ultra dry brush black. Came out just like I wanted.....sometimes you luck out. |

THANKS ALL!!!! On a side note I sent the photos and box art to R2/AMT just to show. They sent back a note that John Bogosain LOVED it! He is the designer on many of the AMT showrods!! I was thrilled they shared them with him!

That build was kind of a test. I got a spray can of Molotow copper and wanted to test it out. And the log truck had a little nit of steam punk look...so I tried it. Not in love with it...but not going to throw it out either!!! Thanks

That is a heavy hauler. Green and copper blend nicely. Great job!
