Knight Hauler Harley Davidson 100th Anniversary Edition

[SWAGGER]

Thanks RCTech!

Tim, thanks for the tip. That would help for sure, but my beacons are defo oversized, I am pretty sure now that they are 1/10 scale. So even tucking them down behind the cab on brackets will not hide that. Also, with all the paint done, I just don't want to start doing that sort of stuff, if I was going to, it should have been during pre paint mock up.

I reckon if I get the 1/16 scale LED beacons from PistenKing, they will look a whole lot better, even on the roof of the cab.

With regards to duck bums, I have never heard the term before but that's not to say that it's not a term that is used here, it's just that I am not a truck driver and would not be "in the know!"

Thanks very much for your advice and pics. Oh, and nice custom work there. I see a truck in the background with some very realistic weathering!!
Steve.

You have one beautiful truck. I love the grill mesh, and the paint is perfect.
IMO, you did an excellent job buddy.

Thanks glorydays, the mesh was really easy. Just something I had left over from my 1:1 car. I laid the original black mesh over it and just cut around it and popped it in.

Thanks Diddy, I can see how painting is an ever evolving skill. I was getting better and more confident as I went. I have picked up a few tricks and learned some lessons that will make the next one easier, quicker and cleaner, but yes, I am happy with this one. I think it looks well and there is a killer shine off it.

With regards to the trailer, you are probably right. I didn't necessarily mean I would use those trailers for this truck though. I would just like to build them would also like to a totally custom KH for them. You have me thinking on the racecar style trailer for this trucks now though. ****....more dreaming and money to spend LOL! Thanks buddy, I appreciate the tip off!
