This is my first 1 / 24 scale truck ever.This is a DAF 380ati Space cab, an old kit. The kit went together quite well except for some minor issues with battery box, which did not fit well. I also had problems with the painting that caused a rough surface on the passenger side. But besides that, it was a fun kit to build. Hope you all like it. I'm still adding little details every now and then.





















______________________________________

This project, like all my other projects, had to be different. :) This one I call - Smashed! I looked at many pics of different truck crashes and went on from there. This is my second 1/24 Truck model, since my 1/35 scale armor models. Enjoy the photos.



























_______________________________

This is an Italeri 4 wheel drive 109" LWB kit I bought on Ebay. I am not completely finished with this kit yet. I still have many extra accessories to add, which I'm waiting on. I call this little vignette is called 'Proud'. The African driver is proud of how he managed to pack his entire belongings in one go.

The idea comes from looking at many pictures of various overloaded vehicles from around the world. Some more rediculous than others.

I am looking to adding another figure of a guy taking a pic of the African driver and his personal belongings. I just have not been able to fine a 1/24 scale version of a photographer. If anyone knows where I can get one please let me know.
