The fault of Cyril - Iveco / Fiat 190.38 Special

[zak]

Cyril started building trucks and I just thought I would have to have a go, something that I have never done before.
This is an Italeri 1:24 Ivceco 190-38 special.
I have added some hydraulic, fuel and air lines, and the odd bit of extra detail.
A nice kit but, boy are they big.
Here are a few pictures during the construction.
I did not have the courage to go for right hand drive - perhaps the next one.

Here is the finished truck.
I am going to have to work harder on the paint finish though.
Used the trusty Vallejo and gloss is by Klear.
Yes the cab tilts and so on.

My, that's a big one!  Good work Kev.  The thing with trucks is that I would not be tempted to weather it but produce it to "Truck Show" standard, so would leave myself no room for error in the finish.  I think I may avoid such things for the time being anyway.

  Its Dave not Kev, just by the way.
Cheers Dave

 I know how you feel Dave, I think me being confused with Tony Beesting has got to me now, I keep looking at ships!!!!

  Wish I knew who I am or was or maybe even could be?
Now I know how you feel Tony or is it Dave?
Oh well, back to the day job - Oh I forgot I don't have one?

Cheers Dave/Kev/Tony/anyone?

Nice to have the website up and running again, even if it is for the select few.
