So for Supersquad7, add one more radicon to the winning list!
Dak- show me the statue I repainted, and I’ll show you the model kit I modified. 
It's based on a Tom Daniel model kit made in the 70's (reissued in '91 I think) that's called "Hemi-Semi". There was no piece left untouched. The grill and headlights were one piece that I separated into 3, tires and truck structure filled in (it's a fairly simple snap-together kit), I could go on. The biggest changes was there used to be a side door in the trailer that I had to remove, then add back in the rib detail, then remove parts of it again for the side decal. Please keep in mind that this is the first of several I will be making. Everything you see here will only improve. I was trying a lot of different techniques in painting and masking. Some worked, some didn't.  Overall though, I think it turned out pretty well, and most importantly, I had fun doing it (complete 180 from two years ago and my scratch built 2' tall primus, oy vey). I was planning on adding it to the gallery as soon as I had some free time and found a good place to host my pics from. I don't think anyone noticed the matirx inside the cab, shouda made a sign calling that out.
Randy! | Awesome, but who's Supersquad7?

Geez, i need to start paying more attention. Looking back over the thread, i'm not even sure dak said anything about it being a statue...oh well. it was never said in malice so i hope he isn't offended.
But hells yeah! Other than the guy who brought the sixshot he didn't even make, Radicons ruled the custom side! booyah! |

On that note, I really hope we see more from ya!
(btw, dak's a cool cat . . . I'd say that if he had a problem with anything, he wudda gave you a polite head's up or something ) | |
