Ironworker Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I picked up a couple more 1918 Ford Runabouts like the one I painted up before. This two however will also be converted. One will be a Pickup with a yellow body and bed and black fenders. The other one will have a bigger wooden bed with tall sides. I may even remove the back fender and push the wheels farther back if I think I can manage it. The bigger truck will be grey and more heavily weathered with rust spots and more caked on mud. I think I'll do the yellow truck first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironworker Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 I got these stripped and I started base coating the first one last night. When I start painting and converting the first one I'll start posting more pictures. Should be sometime today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironworker Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 Ok well I got the trucks all stripped and primed. Today I started work on the yellow pickup. First I painted the body yellow. This took several thin coats. Next I used a dark brown wash on the yellow areas. Then I highlighted the yellow areas. Finally I highlighted the black and added a few details. I've decided to make the bed of the pickup out of wood so I'll make that next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironworker Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 Well made a simple truck bed out of basswood. I left the gate off so I could load the back with different items depending on what I wanted. I'm going to stain it the same color at the stearing wheel.

Ironworker Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 Ok the yellow pickup is basically finished. Here are a few shapshots. I'm pretty happy with it and I think it will make a nice addition to my games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
