Fantastic finish, bro!!! What did you use on the "chrome" trim?

Some of it is that Molitov pen set and some is just Model Masters Chrome Silver Enamel... Used a black wash on the grill to give it that depth...

When you add the grill to the build beware that the inside upper edge shows from the engine bay, paint it black of it will stand out like a sore thumb... I had to squeeze a small paintbrush in there with black paint when I realized the ol' white plastic was glaring in my face!!! LOL!!! Of course your kit is black so no problem unless you chrome the whole thing...

Superb job on that build Joe. The decals look excellent; there's no sign you had any trouble whatsoever. That is a marvelous pair.

Thank you Mark, Red can vouch for the cussing moment with the passenger side decal twist, it wasn't pretty and I almost launched the truck across the room, took two wet brushes to untwist it and get it positioned back in place...

Well, finally after a year, I've fulfilled my Group obligation and finished my entry. This will make Joe's fine shiny build even shine more. This is my rendition of a Honcho Hunting and Fishing Mobile, equipted with most of the things one would need to have some more fun. I give you the OZ version of the Honcho Jeep Truck.
