    Default Another monster truck.

    IMG_0436.jpgIMG_0438.jpgIMG_0439.jpg7 year olds birthday present. I usually list the materials but she's a bit of a lolly scramble really, I just threw it together using bits and bobs I found in my parts box. Hope you enjoy.

    It is good to let your imagination run wild and this is one wild ride. What a great build.

    That is a fantastic monster truck!

    It has also made me realise that I am an idiot, a friend asked me if I could make something similar to her 34 Tudor and I said no. But, the way you have done the pillars and screens in that makes me think that maybe I could.

    Yeah it just dawned on me one day while I was daydreaming, unfortunately it's very limiting, you couldn't use it on a scale model style replica for instance as it's not really possible to round the corners of the window pillars...trust me I've looked at it from every angle I can think of but just can't make it work which is a shame. Works well for the trucks though.

    Yup, I went straight off and looked at pictures and you are correct, not even a mini would look right with hard 90deg angles.
