Really great looking truck! Like the small details - like the hood hinges- makes the thing real...
Keep up the good work!

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

That looks incredibly cool Steve ! Great color choice, and will look even better 2 toned..

The only thing about it that I see that I don't like......... is the fact that we can't see it. Buy yourself a dang camera already !! :DLMAO:D

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

Wow. That's all I can say Steve. Love the new photos. Whatever you did to take the latest photos, be it a tripod or block of wood, it worked. With the trailer, she's going to be a killer looking combo. I can't wait to see it finished. Two tone will be incredible!

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

thank you Nate , when I'm sick I shake even more so I have to learn to rest the cam on some thing . Also take the pics outside when I can also have the shuter on delay so when i push the button you don't notice the shake . I actually have the detachable to pull with it thats why the sliding 5th wheel . Have to have it back to clear the rear of the truck . The single drop looks better slid fwd . I'll tell ya just like real life for me the longer the easier to back up :p I still can't hitch a short single axle to a tag in 1 shot but my long tandem 1 shot not even lined up .
God I hope I get over this flippin cold soon to much to do :mad:

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

Great job Steve the truck looks amazing.

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

Very unique and original build, the whole thing looks tremendous but I especially like the tag axle, very realistic. The colour sets it all off and the metal front grille is very well done too.

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

thank you , Nick

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

Yeah buddy, that's what i'm talking about !! Great pic right there, as were the rest of them.

My apologies if you took my comment too serious. That wasn't my intent. :o

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

Wow,wow,wow:eek:,I think this is my favorite truck now.:D

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

I agree with Troy very nice and well done.

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

nah I know I got pic taking probs . for some reason I shake it's even hard for me to work with bolts smaller than 2mm or 2-56

now come on it no pete :p thank you I'm real happy it's coming out nice :D

thank you ,Greg

looks like I fig out the multi quote :p:rolleyes:

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

Everyone needs to so we can keep threads neat and tidy. :p :cool:

The outdoor pics are much better. If that is the same camera used for the inside shots, then definitely use a perch/tripod and the delay. Truck looks fantastic.

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

Nice work Steve, man you got alot going.

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

thanks Matt I still remember the tips you all gave me on GT ;)

tell me about it :p finishing this 1 and the pay star then the pans before I get started on a td 8E wide track :shhh::D

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
 

Your picture taking abilities have improved a thousand fold Steve, it's great to see clear photos of your unique talent of model engineering. You are truly in a realm of your own with your abilities of a 100% scratchbuilt model building. Well done Sir! :cool:
