International Transtar Eagle

made a start on AMT's International Transtar Eagle, this one wil be right hand drive (thanks to KP conversions) and will have a bullbar but other than that will be pretty much stock, heres where im up to so far.

Off to a good start.

Hows this one going.

slowly !

got some color on it, tropicana green.

cool colour on it.

This is looking real nice , I like the colour .

Looks fantastic so far!

got the interior finished

Looking good.

Looking real gooood!... but I gotta ask a silly question DVmate!
How the "Blue Blinkin' Blazes", do you manage your
close up pics to be so clear?... Mate I can't take a clear
close up pic if me life depended on it!.

i use a cannon digital camera, IXUS 8015, had it for a few years now, its very easy to use, set it to digital and point it, first click and it focuses all on its own if u r happy with how it looks keep pressing the button and it takes the pic, i am not much of a photographer but this camera makes it easy, it does all the hard work for u, it was recomended to me by one of the blokes on this forum. i did figure out one trick all on my own, often i would get a pic of a car with the front in focus and the back blurry, i found that if u stand back a bit and zoom in u get a much more uniform focus rather than just one part.

Yeh.. that's what I find!... front half of pic, clear & sharp as.. then the back all fuzzy
and blurry. Close ups of dash or engine or interior... all "fuzzed up".
Looks like I need to trade my Ol' Kodak C340 Digital, for something a little more
upmarket!. Thanks DVmate... It's good to build models, but extra good when you
can take some decent pics of them!... 

progress is slow on this one but some work is gettin done, cab has been fitted and engine bay is finished

Nice work Dv8..............Like that green too.

Looking the part.

Looking good so far, like the colours.
