JT you are master of car model weathering, I can't fine one spot that doesn't look real.

Re: 1977 GMC plow truck

The weathering is really excellent!

I guess you painted the rear part of the truck in a lighter colour on purpose?

Re: 1977 GMC plow truck

I love it, like they said, weathering is spot on! No sandbags in the bed? But the cone looks perfect!

Scale Auto has to pay you to do an article in their mag. Beautiful representation of slight damage and weathering!!

What a great build! This would look amazing in a snowy diorama.

Re: 1977 GMC plow truck

This build is so perfect that the only defect that I can find are the windshield wipers not in their rest position. Terrific!

Re: 1977 GMC plow truck

That is sweet! Weathered to perfection and the leaves just add to the overall effect of a hard worked and rather neglected truck.

Nice one!

Re: 1977 GMC plow truck

This is one awesome model. Weathering skills at best! A treat to look at, one can imagine that it has been sitting under a large tree for a long time...

Re: 1977 GMC plow truck

This is typical of your topnotch building skills, I love it. I think that the cab and box not lining up is a great touch. A lot of older trucks here are exactly like that.
