I'm knocked over by your skills.

Would you mind telling how you did the SCANIA nameplate on the grille ?

Skirt looks great!!

I would still lay that grill back a bit more for a more verticle line from the bumper up!! looks odd with the top of the grill leaning over the bumper like that,, Just My humble opinion...

Better and better this build gets! I love it and am about to buy a damn Tamiya rig to make something of my own. You are really doing this well.

That orange concept truck above. I can't tell if it is scale or 1:1. If so that is a huge ass dome over it.
