Aww guys...No replies? :confused:

Some progress. I got the cab and bed to sit level on the chassis. And still doing a little work on the sleeper section. Also, I made a 4 door version of this. I don't know what the hell I'll use it for. Anyone want to cast it? This thing is massive. It has the dgproductions toy chassis. It appears to have the 4WD setup. Dam it is a tall one! I kept the wheels that came with the toy, and stole tires from some old truck kit. I think the 4 door looks crazy on the swb chassis!....Ahh!!!!!:-D

That does look cool.

Looks more than good, looks fantastic ! :thumbsup:

i love 4 doors with a SWB. Let us know what config you decide on.

Geez could you even put rear fenders on with the 4-door cab? looks pretty tight. How about taking pic of the truck next to a 1/24 scale car just to show how big that bad boy really is!

NIce trucks.... :D

WOW thats a first for me, looks good

Ok, more pics. Mr. WRX made an appearence to show the size diff. I didn't think the lowered dually could represent a normal sized vehicle. So thank Mr. Wrx:-D Any Ideas for colors on the 2dr? I want something solid I think. Not too crazy. Ideas?

Thanks Mr. WRX!

put that front end on a tahoe body and graft on the dually fenders that would look even more crazy

Yes...I was thinking that..Crazy shit indeed. I won't graft the front end onto anything permenantly. I want to cast it to use it on many many things. lol...I mean, get it casted. Anyone? Please?

:lol: You guys are hilarious. :icon16:

Update. Painted this today. Going with the 2 door longbed dually for now. I do have the 4 door still. It will find a home, do not worry. Pics will be up soon.
:D

I know the guy who owns Perry's Resin. He's a cool dude

Good to see I'm not the only one who takes 4+ month breaks on thier models. :smile: Let's see some progress!

Wow thats crazy big. good job. I would cut out the rear wheel opeing to match the front. it would look great painted up with some wild graphics.

Ok. Pics from my uber crappolla camera.:rolleyes:

Paint is, tamiya surface primer. Subaru blue:D..uh..TS-50 Dean..I like that idea of graphics..maybe not too wild tho..I have an idea with this truck, being the blue it is...for...a certain hauler;) What do you mean about the wheel wells? This is how they set the real trucks up. The beds are lined up with the cab like on the regular pickup.

Grille and other parts is/will be testors magnezium metalizers with a clear.
I am not certain on how I am going to do up the interior as of yet. Probably just a grey deco. Nothing too flashy.

I might actually finish this one someday. Heh..Well, it's basically a cubrside kit. No engine. No real suspesion. Just the basic toy frame. So..kinda like a fujimi kit;-)

Thanks for looking.

:eek: thats pretty big!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks great. I think you should go for a tan interior, a little darker than the resin color.

You might get altitude sickness if you drive for too long in this monster, by the way, it's incredible, I like it but not too sure about the colour choice, maybe a darker shade of blue to make it look meaner, if that's at all possible. Keep it up, uP, UP.
