Pegasus 1:72
German trucks

Not much text today, I had a little accident at work which made me a big headache. An empty beverage box, I remember it was a Coca Cola box, felt on my head from 3 meters height. It caused no blood but made a lot of pain.

Used colors:

When I got them I painted them in grey, can be seen inside the drivers cabin. But I was not satisfied with that. So I repainted the trucks with the following colors:

Revell Aquacolor Sand plus Seagreen and Citadel Bestial Brown for the camo pattern, then a mild black wash. Citadel Chaos Black for the tires and Citadel Catachan Green and Citadel Thraka Green wash for the cover.


Modifications:

- added Headlights from the spare box

- a scratchbuilt
Notek for booth trucks made of plasic card

- driver mirror made of steel wire and plastic card

- a windshield made of clear plastic

- build spacers, I hope it is called spacer, of steel wire. The balls at the end are drips of pva glue


There are still some little spots I will have to rework (what I actually wanted to do today) and add some decals but the two trucks are almost finished (for today).

Thanks for that. When I woke up this morning I felt good and had no pain anymore.
