I've got this Peterbilt Wrecker (Revell 7541, 1:25) kit incoming with a cabin and hood with some oops. I'm looking for the best donor kit. Any suggestions?

Nicolas
I have had good experiences with Revell's customer service. 2 out of 3 times I had the spare parts in my mailbox a few days after the call, only with parts for a kit that was last in the catalog 26 years ago I could not be helped.

Mr D
Good start, nice project... looking good 👍🇬🇧

I'm following this to learn

Martin Oostrom
Another tutorial one needs to watch

Gerald Sigmund
@mks: Komakais Walkaround shows meshes for the left and right intakes and none for the center one.

Bozzer
I have no idea of your subject, but I do enjoy your builds. The tutorial is always a lesson, and very informative. Keep them coming 👍

Pepe
Looking

berni
I take a seat 👍

When you thin parts, what technique do you use?

MS K
@Ben M - When I need to shave a lot, like this time, I use file.

Michael Kohl
Martin and Bozzer pointed it out. This will be fun and informative to follow.

Matteo Pescarin
Oh wow, as usual, fantastic documentation of the efforts going into this project. Chapeau to you!
Nonetheless, it makes me want to skip any Revell kit from now on... if I only didn't have any in my stash XD

MS K
@Matteo - The new mold products produced since around 2010 are generally nice quality(2CV, VW T1, 911G, Etc...) , but this product is so poorly made that it is ridiculous. I don't know what the production concept of this kit is. It is poor for a precision model, and it's not even easy to assemble.

Michael Kohl
With Revell you better check in advance how that specific kit is rated by others. They have tons of reboxes and quite a few kits where you just wanna ask: are you serious? But then, once in a while, just to show that they are able - in general - to be a serious modelling company, they release some really fine stuff. Doesn't hurt to be prepared what you're up against.

A true Revell car kit experience 👍 The casted on wiper is especially painful

Michael Kohl
That diffusor is a tremendous improvement.

Such a tool makes such work as fitting the diffusor panels to the chassis much easier (the thinner the needles/pins, the more precise the contour).
Just a german site to give an idea.
Cheers Michael

MS K
Nice idea. I wish there was something made of insect pins thin enough to use in a plamodel.

Johne 69
Great work so far 👍

berni
A question. What Colours you would use at this kit?

MS K
@berni - The red is Italian Red, and I plan to use Cobalt Blue + Sky Blue (the instructions say to mix Ultramarine and Blue).

Spanjaard
wow, your attention to detail and how detail your build logs are, never disappoint! amazing

George Williams
That interior looks really good.

Kesa Tiho
This album is a perfect way to round up why revells models are subpar, why modeling is a great hobby and the lengths humans will go to to achieve perfection. Great progress my guy.

MS K
The results of the steering-enabled modification are as follows: Youtube Video

Bozzer
There's nothing better than catching up on your builds, on a Sunday morning. It always lifts me and gives me the energy to get into the cave and get some building done. Excellent work on the steering! And those little bearings used as rivets, is excellent 👍

Thorsten Höse
Awesome-sauce! 😎

Sy Bar
🍿👍

yngvenett
Well done 👏 👏 Good solutions as for the fuel filler cap and lots of other details. Enjoyed the trip 👍

Nicolas
Great result. 👍

MS K
Thanks everyone. 😄

Christian W
Your detailwork is fantastic! Always a pleasure to read and see the details you're looking at and how you get it solved.

btw: I love your picture 158.

Alexander Grivonev
Great detailed report MS K! Bravo 👍

All SpikeSpiegel's models look like real cars. It's a pure wizardry!

Neuling

George Williams
Lovely work, but the radio aerial looks a bit odd.

gorby
Beautiful!

Bruno
Thanks George and as for the radio aerial: it's a Revell, not a Tamiya😀
Thanks Gorby

MS K
Nice color~ Did you overcoat it?
