Re: Petrbilt 281 Duel Truck 1/24

Indeed the lower front window frame line matches, in 379s with the lower line of door windows, while in 281 this front windows are much higher. Thanks a lot

Re: Petrbilt 281 Duel Truck 1/24

intersting also this Sergey, thank you.
I always prefer work with revell monogram models. I think they have more details, despite many subjects as the autocar trucks or some Mack are done only by amt.
Dunno neither about the trailer, suspect is better directly scratchbuild it from 0, than use dodge tanker. have it, and it looks really like an old toy...

Will be lovely to see your amazing skill on a movie subject like this after your 379

so for now I gave the shape to the nose of my guy. side doors are fixed to find the proper shape of the entire vehicle, and I also wanted to add at once the front round lights and the typical ugly railway bumper..













here is clear also the entire door is different in 359 from 281. part in temporary position, I will use like gold Mickhail picture witht he 2 cabs near...





front end looks ok for me now

Re: Petrbilt 281 Duel Truck 1/24

and my situation here is this






so is time to properly vandalize the part..








and keep straight the upper front door edge


lowering pyllars and reshaping area




and here how it looks now, after some snding and primer. I think its nearly there..

Much better now! Pay attention on some features of the Unilite cab.

Re: Petrbilt 281 Duel Truck 1/24

Nice start again, Paolo! Duel truck is a real classic for sure!

Upper rear edge of the door window frame shouldn´t be round on a 281, though!
