FORD LTL9000 PROGRESS

A little weathering work has been carried out on the Italeri 1:24 scale Ford LTL9000 truck, with the shiny CAT diesel engine now looking appropriately grubby. The extra scratch-built detail has really brought the plastic mouldings to life and the weathering washes and dry-brushed highlights add the final touch. 

The next task is to get the chassis frames ready for the engine, gearbox and cooling system. The various pipes and hoses can then be connected up. Hopefully, a few spare evenings over the coming week will see this project move forward.
