  • Finishing the build of the AMT Mack Cruiseliner in 1/25 scale :) I'll show you how I paint it using the Tamiya spray paints. More model car building videos to come. Thank you so much for watching :)
    PS - Thanks for the comment pointing out the 5th wheel is too far forward, it should be between the rear wheels!

    Good Job my friend I've been building Model Truck,s since 1970 I don't like to tell anyone how to do anything it's not my style but The 5th wheel mount,s over between the rear tandems that's all keep up the great work I have built several of these Mack Cruiseliner Model,s and they are very tricky to build! well happy Modeling.👍🏻

    I just wanted to mention the 5th wheel plate is slid way to far forward it should be centered above the rear axles. Because the way you have it you'll never be able to hook up to a trailer properly.

    Really beautiful rig man , sometimes a rattle can çan go down as perfect as the best pros do it , when you ser a real truck they really have a lot of blemishes etc , looks perfect to me! . Id like to hear your thoughts on the amt white freightliner , it's a tricky devil .

    • @ChickpeaHobbies
      @ChickpeaHobbies  21 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks for the kind words !
      I haven’t built the freightliner 🤔 do you recommend trying it?
      The hardest bit with this one was I couldn’t fit the turbo under the cab without trimming.
      Also I think I put the fifth wheel too far forward. Live and learn 😂

    • @stevenwalker1883
      @stevenwalker1883 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Id say give the freightliner a go , m r surfacer will fill the infamous seam very well, many rigs have cut outs for turbos if that doesn't bother you , the amt instructions are dodgy though , not very clear , good luck !

    Overall well constructed, but it strikes me a bit too dull in appearance, sorry. The chrome grille is a must for big trucks like this. Owner-operators bought MORE chrome to dress up these trucks, not remove chrome. It may be the lighting, but use of black wash was too heavy, imo. There are lighter gray wash tones available that might've been better, but only if used in the grille-work, not left on the surrounding chrome or center bulldog circle. That's becoming my plan, after seeing your video. I've just purchased this kit, haven't decided on color yet. But I'm quite sure that it will carry bright-work very prominently. On the clear window install, it's becoming standard by builders to use Modge-Podge. It dries clear, and will not etch clear parts or wick into painted surface.
