What would a truck be without a motor

The motor fitted to the chassis. I paint always the parts first which I cannot reach. Using cement makes the paint sometimes get off

It fits so far but I need to build the back parts first for I can use cement

It takes time and I see so many things that i would do different I have build my next project but I am okay with it for now.

Thanks. I have never had a project from Aoshima but it is really nice to build. Also a lots of nice details.

Almost done. Very nice kit to build. Lots of decal, lots of detail.
Only need to paint it on some parts and then find a place in house where I can keep it save..

Done with this project
There are things that I want to do better with the next project.
The first thing is that I need to build closer to my magnifying glasses. The distance between te glasses and the building was sometimes too far. With a glasses on my head and magnifying glasses it was still hard to see all the details. (I have found a solution with a higher desk on my desk)
The second thing is to be more patiënt when it comes to accepting if the painting is done good enough. (I know I am little bit bad in waiting)
But besides that, with my bad eyes I am happy with the result over all.
On to the next project.

That is really cool. I never saw that kit before.
Thank you for sharing your skills and expertise.

I never saw it either but when I noticed it I need to have it.
Very funny kit to build.

I'm always drawn to unusual subjects and that is one that I never saw.🙃

Great work 👍 This series from Aoshima also seemed interesting to me. I bought one model from this series and it is now waiting for assembly. By the way, when I glue transparent plastic, I always cover it with a mask so that there are no scratches and traces of glue.

That sounds like a good plan. If I plan to use super glue I dip the clear parts in Pledge floor gloss. It reduces the tendency to frost the clear parts and actually makes the plastic more glass like and less toy like.
Usually I use a clear glue like Elmers glue or Mod Podge for attaching clear plastic parts.
