| ScalEvolution Shop Truck
Well, I figured I need a truck now for running around to get some scale parts and goodies for different builds. This truck is still a work in progress, but I have been putting a lot of work into it so far, so I thought I would share. This is a stock Toyota Cream Color. I was trying to figure out something to use some diamond plate on, so I figured this idea would look pretty cool. All of the body lines on the cab are hand painted, I see now that there are a couple of places that the camera picked up that I had not seen before, so I will have to get to those. Plasti-dip over the rail box liner. Has the rubber texture to it, so it helps keep things in place. Still need to get some lights in the truck as well as a windshield, they are on order with from the hobby shop. I have been buying it piece by piece. So here is what I have now, more pics coming soon: |

Truck looks good. I thought "shop trucks" were usually all beat to hell though Probably is the Plastruct stuff. As far as I know...Evergreen doesn't have a diamond plate. Not sure if there are any other styrene companies out there...but Plastruct & Evergreen are the only one's I've dealt with. |
