Desert Rat Racer · 24-01-2008

Her are a couple of rigs i got from the Ulstad truck site, I first built these usinf sticky tape as I didn't know if it was wot I was after but as I continued to build them I got better and used glue.

The decals I put on myself and had made up for me by a friend who lives in the States.

You're putting together quite an impressive fleet of trucks there. Nice jobs they are as well.

Thanks Richard, Since getting those 2 CDRoms and finding as many free cardstock truk sites I'e done my best to build a great fleet of trucks. Soon I hope to get my decal program going again and do a fleet of trucks with my name on the side of each.

Howdy Russell,

Those are very nice trucks there. As you know, I did the "repaint" of the "cardmodel.net" truck on that site, with Steve ulstad's permission as a free download for the members of the cqardmodels site. I plan on doing a recolor of one for this site as well, I just havent gotten around to it. I have also considered "enlarging it to a bigger scale.I have the files downloaded, I need to play with my photo editing software and get them done, and then contact Steve for permission to post them here as a free download.
If you need help with decals or getting your name on a truck, let me know and i will be more than happy to help.

again, good job and have a good day,

Greg

Thanks Greg I keep that in mind as I have lost contact with my Oregan friend. price would be the factor as well but I think I could handle it. Thanks also for the comment on these rigs the funny part about them all is that they are held tpgether with wot is called here in Oz as magic tape.

Howdy Russell,

Noooooo, I am talking about something like taking one of these models and "redrawing" it with your name on it where ever or however you want. I have 5 different photo editing programs and there is really nothing to it. That way, you just build the model "as usual"....except it would be personalized for you. I will contact you via email and we can discuss it further.
This method involves no actual decals and no "magic tape" lol because it would be part of the model when you print it. I can put a photo of your favorite lanscape from there in australia on the side of the trailer if you want.
Anyway, I will email you tonight before i go to bed and maybe send ya an example.

Have a good day,

Greg
