  • Details turning out really great! Like the labels on cans, boxes, and bottles.
  • Very nice. Love that Coke bottle.
  • The wall calendar is pretty nifty as well. Concrete loading dock is very well done…I could go on and on but instead, I think I’ll go back snd look it all over again…especially the calendar

  • Ditto. Well done with lots of details ON the details!
  • Nice work on a fantastic kit !!! I like the variation and colors in/on the details.
  • Great job, enjoying seeing your progress.
  • Very nice, a great job.
  • Thanks for all the comments. I think when I get it done I'll do a condensed time line of pictures from start to finish. It's a great kit
  • Wow, those details are looking fantastic.
    So much added interest with the included labels and the hoses on the gas tanks and air compressor.
    You are doing a great job, almost nothing could be improved.
    Wonderful.
  • Thanks, Karl. with looking at your detail work and Brett's instructions and videos it's a lot of fun. Honestly, I'm a bit surprised at how well I'm doing with this because I'm not known as a fine detail guy in anything I've done in business or antique car restorations over the years - more of a "big picture" vision.

    That's the beauty of the SierraWest kits,
    They guide you through every step and before you know it, if you follow the instructions, you are creating a masterpiece and something to be proud of.

    Looking great so far, the build is really coming along.
    Are you open to some input?
    I like the progress so far.
  • Karl, any input is welcome. This is nowhere near finished. Still lots to add in terms of items, landscaping, and etc. What's on your mind?
  • Karl, a more recent pic but still in progress.

    Sorry it's been a while to answer, life, work, etc.
    Looking back at the pics I think I was just going to suggest a light dusting of medium grey or my fav 408.5 chalk on the 'colourful' items.
    Just very lightly to dull the colours down slightly and also to blend the contrasts where two colours meet.
    Just to blend things together and subdue, very lightly to start with, but I think it will help in the overall look.
    Just my thought for you.
    (even on the bushes)
  • Thanks, Karl. The real dusting had not been completed yet on any of the colored items but I'm well along now and into the landscaping. The whole thing should be completed in another few weeks and I'll post some pictures then.
