Revell Kenworth snap,my welcome back to the hobby.

[Badluck 13]

I have posted this elsewhere but I would like to share it here being I will be spending most of my time here..This is my first build since I quite the hobby in '97 and I chose the Revell snap just because it was cheap and also something easy to get me into the swing of things again,but after seeing some other modelers work and ideas and issues with the kit I decided to do a lot of "first time" things to this truck like wiring and plumbing,"dirtied" look and other things as well.....shes not perfect and there are details I missed but all in all I am very happy with the outcome and this Ol' Kenny will be a favorite of mine because of those reasons.......Thanks for letting me share this and please,comments good,bad,and or ugly welcome,as I can take constructive criticism,how else can I learn.......

Really nice build. Such a difference between the old AMT W-900 & the Monogram snap kit. Very well done indeed.

I'm totally with Jim on this one! This is a great looking KW, the colors look great, paint is on evenly and crisp, overall finish is excellent. What else do you want? ;D
