Custom Truck Models

Any suggestions to get a replica model done?
Cheers.

what scale?

Dunno really, 1:50 perhaps, or maybe 1:32

How much do you want to spend?

My mate does custom & prototype models but he aint cheap. He recently did a model for JCB at £4k !

Your easiest & cheapest option would be to find a simple model & look to customising it yourself with printable decals.

you could ask Lonewolf Yorks on here, but, he mainly does 1:24 scale

he will possibly know of someone to do a 1:50

I was asked if I knew anyone who could do one.

I reckon it’s more a case of anyone know who could customize an existing model. I’ve been having a look, and have found a Nooteboom triaxle stepframe lowloader. A Scania R480 Highline 6x2 should be easy enough to source. Getting them liveried may be more tricky.

No idea about the budget for it though.

Not sure what the plan is, but that’s handy to know. Cheers I’ll send him a message.

Benni on here does 1:50 scale trucks :slight_smile:

Yes send me a message mate, I’ll sort you out. :stuck_out_tongue:

Cheers, will send a PM

will vouch for benni,
he does some great work

Yeah I don’t work much in 1/50 scale and being a tramper I don’t have a lot of time to do any modelling at all

I can vouch for Benni too on the 1/50 side.
