Wow also nice to see a owner of a truck not get Butt Hurt about a comment. To true Shane were all big boys be nice but be honest..

I my self think the bumper fits the look of the truck maybe a little more show truck then it is but it looks great I am a less is more lights guy so just the bottom lights would of worked for me but it still looks good..

I agree with Paul I like the T bar but less lights would make it look better in my opinion.

well, it should't be a destructive critique or sthing like that. i really like them both, the truck and the t-bar. but the truck is that smooth and clean, some sort of 'nice and perfect understatement' and the t bar is bling bling. two themes in one project, well, something new.

the overall work of the truck is great...

OT ON:
btw. gun, what do you think this truck will look like when it's finished? just take a look at your avatar :rolleyes:

wow elbarto that is a sweet ride in the making just the way a show truck should be long and low !!
are you going to move your fuel tank toward the steps and ad body panels between the cab and tanks and steps ? over all i really like the truck at this stage and ill bet it comes out top shelf

I like the bumper light bar rather classy.....the color scheme is outstanding!

Re: Project Gun Shy...
 
I like a lot of lights too, so if the T-bar stays, then the rest of the truck surely needs an equal amount of lights added to it in all the other places.

A bit off topics, those lenses and bezels are super nice! Are those made by Lynn?

i think that the rig looks great ! But i think that the cerved bits shuld go and maybe lose
a few lights to . Other than that perfect.

I think it looks perfect the way it is... Why... because it is the way YOU want it.

Every one has their opinion and some match with your ideas and some don't, be true to yourself and build it (or have it built) the way you like it. For instance I would not think of painting a truck yellow, but I like the way this truck looks and I like Brian in PA's yellow trucks, but would I have one yellow....NO.

Input from other modelers is both valuable and appreciated as far as I am concerned and some of the input I have had on my build I have actually used, not because something I did was wrong but because someone else thought or saw something that I didn't think of that's what is good and useful about this forum..
