Thank you for the comment and for watching the video! The "Movin On" model is a classic and should be a great build. I wish you the best on your model! Thanks again!
Absolutely incredible detail..! I used to think the many kits I built in the 80's were pretty good but some of the builds I'm seeing now put me to shame. Well done mate
Thank you so much for the comment. Don't be too hard on yourself and your model building. Many of those videos you see are from builders that have been doing this hobby for many years. I have been building since the late 1960's so I have had plenty of failures along the way. Thank you again for watching the video and for your comment, both are highly appreciated. Best wishes!
Just excellent work. The engine looks like a real tractor diesel power plant. I'm going to try dry brushing on future projects where there are rivets or other re-occuring raised details. Great job!
Thank you for the comment, it is highly appreciated! Dry-brushing is an excellent and easy way to bring out the details. The technique can really make a model pop. You will not be sorry you did it. Thank you again for the comment and for watching the video. Best wishes!
Thank you for the comment, I appreciate it! Making your own custom decals is not too difficult. I use the decal film from Testor. The kit comes with clear decal film and the spray fixative. All you need is an ink-jet printer. Load the decal film in your printer, print your design on the film, spray the printed design and let dry. Once dry you cut out your custom decal and apply like any other water-slide decal. Thanks again for your comment and for watching the video. Best Wishes!
Thank you so much! To be honest, this model has gotten more comments than I ever expected. I set out to try and make it as realistic as I could. I wanted a model that looked like it was functional when the hood was opened. A little grease and grime here and there but not over done. My only regret is the darn stripes I put on the fenders. I wish I never did that. Thank you for your comment and for watching the video. Best wishes!
This caught my attention and played it. Thinking no way will I watch all 20 minutes. Yep, this is so well done I was mouth open throughout the entire 20 min !
Thank you so much for staying to the end of the video! I do feel that I will loose viewers in the first few slides when I talk about the model. However, I also think it is nice to have just a little background on the build as well. I am not good at videoing and making comments as I build. Slide shows work the best for me. Thank you again.
Great job! This is a museum quality presentation of a W-900. I learned a lot from this presentation and going to try to copy your process. I used to do military armor and found it easy to weatherize and make look battle affected but 1/25 scale trucks much more challenging to make appear real and not just a plastic model.
First, let me thank you for watching and for your comments, they are appreciated. I post these videos to show what I did on the build and to possibly give others ideas for their projects as well, so this video has accomplished that. I have built armor, ships, spaceships, trucks and all sorts of other kits. Each is different in the weathering effect application. I actually built a Freightliner Cab Over and purposefully weathered the heck out of it to "learn" how to do rust, dents and other effects on trucks. I'll post a video on this rig if you are interested to see it. You may wish to do the same to learn your technique on weathering cars and trucks. Get a cheap kit and go for it! But most of all enjoy the process and don't get discouraged if you have to go through a learning process. It takes practice to get things looking right. Thanks again!
I really wanted to detail out a semi tractor. I built a Peterbilt 359 that I detailed somewhat and I wanted to raise the bar on this build. I have a tandem trailer set to build to go with this KW. I plan on attempting to put as much detail in the trailers as I can to compliment the KW. I thank you so much for the comment and for watching the video. I have seen some amazing builds of trucks on UA-cam, I do not take you comment lightly! Thank you again!
Thanks! I feel as welcomed as I possibly can with all the comments on this video. I did not expect very much to come out of my videos. They are not the best produced videos, I have to admit. I just hoped to get the subject out for anyone that was interested to see. There is so much positive from the community. It is a great place to be welcomed into. Thank you for watching and for the welcome!
Hi Monte, great looking KW! Jeff sent me over from Jeff's Model Garage to take a look. I just subscribed. Keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing. Jeff
Thanks for checking out the video! Thanks for subscribing and for the comments. I will try to get out more builds as quickly as I can. I have an Autocar conversion I want to start soon. Thanks again for the support!
Your model building skills are an inspiration my friend, beyond what most are willing or capable to do! Thanks for sharing, I was beginning to think I was the only one out there who couldn't be satisfied unless I wired and plumbed the engine, air tanks and brakes ect... You have given me countless ideas for my future builds, though I need to learn you "dry brush technique" as I am lacking in that department. Here are a few tips you might try, instead of running 4 or 5 lines from front to back, I make a wiring harness by using a single larger wire then attach the smaller wires at each end with a small piece of shrink tubing, the result is very realistic looking. The problem you had with the chrome rubbing off and or scratching, (front grille), up can be fixed by painting them in Future floor polish before you begin working on it. There is a whole segment on FFP in the model world somewhere that is worth reading if you can find it. Keep building, and keep them videos coming, I'll be watching every one for sure!
Thank you for watching the video and for the comments and tips! I have used Future before but only as a final clear coat. I will try your suggestion on the next build. Real quickly, dry brushing is simply dipping your brush in paint and wiping off almost all the paint until the brush is "dry" in appearance. Run the brush over the raised details on a part and the paint left on the brush will only adhere to the raised areas. This bring out the details. It will take practice to perfect. Thanks again and happy modeling!
Thank you for your comment. Yeah, there is a lot of details that can be added at this scale. The problem is where to draw the line. I think I may have crossed it a time or two on this build. I have asked some of my model airplane builder friends why they put so much effort detailing the inside of the fuselage of an airplane when it will never be seen once the two halves are joined. Their reply... "because it is really there". Adding details is completely up to the builder and how much extra they want to add. Did I over do it? Well, maybe a little.😉 Thank you again for your comment and for watching the video. Best wishes!
Awesome build, awesome details, awesome video. I have to agree with ya about the decals on the front hood fenders. Leave em off! Kenworth NEVER put factory paint stripe designs on their trucks. That was a Freightliner & Marmon 💡 idea. Excellent job. . . .well done. . . .10-4!!!😃🥰👍👍👍👍👍
If I had a chance to do it over I would not put the decals on the fenders. They are there to stay as there are two coats of clear on top of them. No decal remover in the world would soften these! Maybe some day I will replace / repaint the hood. Honestly, it does not bug me that much to rip the hood apart. Live and learn and go on to the next project, which will be doubles for the trailer. Thank you for watching and making a comment on the video.
That is absolutely amazing! I have the first edition of this kit, circa 1992, that I acquired in 1995. I have been looking for a more modern W900, because I owned and drove a 1:1 scale for 10 years. Hopefully my kit can look half this good, starting my build now. 👍
Thanks for the comment and for watching the video! Best wishes on your build. I'm sure that you will have an excellent model when you are completed. I actually just started the tandem trailer kit for this tractor. Thank you again for watching the video!
Thank you for that compliment, I appreciate it. Sharing construction and detailing ideas is what this is all about. Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment! Best wishes on your build!
Thank you for watching the video and for leaving a comment. I'm happy that the video is inspiring creativity in the modeling world. Best of luck on the dump truck, Best wishes!
Don't care for the graphics on the fenders but I love the design on the rest of it, other than that I think it's beautiful, awesome details with the wiring and hoses and I love the rear fenders although I would have made rectangle tubes for the taillights as the support for the rear and hung the mud flaps under it, beautiful work and it still gets a 10 out of 10 ❤❤
Thank you for your comments! I completely agree with you on the fender graphics, I NEVER SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT! I look at the model to this day and keep telling myself to remove the hood and re-do the fenders. It will happen, I just don't know when. Thank you again for watching the video and for the comment. Best wishes!
Hello, this is an incredible build. Jeff's Model Garage sent me and I am glad I came by, you do some amazing work. I am subscribed and notifications are turned on!!
Thank you for checking out the video! And thank you for subscribing to the channel! As you probably already know I build almost every type of subject. You never know what will be posted up next. I mentioned somewhere in the comments that I have an Autocar kit that I intend to modify into an all wheel drive Bucket Truck. I have some personal time in this rig and want to model it. Thank you again!
Absolutely! give the weathering a try. It is not hard to do and you really can't mess things up. After all, you're "weathering"! I suggest researching what is available for adding oil stains, rust etc. and give it a go! Thank you for watching the video and for your comments.
Really enjoyed your extra attention to details. I'll subscribe, to see more. Music was good, too. I thought your custom decals look great. The ones on the fenders look good also, but next time maybe don't wrap them down to the headlights. Stop at the turn signals. Other than that minor thing, it's A-1!
You know, every time I walk by that model I tell myself I'm going to remove the hood and sand off those dang decals I put on the fenders. The decision to put the decals on the fenders haunts me to this day. One of these days I'll get the inspiration to remove them! Thank you for watching the video and for your comments, I really appreciate it. Best wishes!
Thanks for the comment! I also build aircraft models and I tend to bring elements from one build to the next. Seatbelts and hydraulic lines are almost always added to aircraft kits. So when I build something like a car or truck, I incorporate those same detail additions. Basically, just look at your subject and decide what is missing that can be reasonably added. The amount of detail you add is entirely up to you. Thank you again for the comment and for watching my video, it is appreciated.
Jeff sent me over just sent you a sub awesome work on this W 900 do love the big rigs myself hopefully see more of your work and my be see you in the BRGB this summer greetings from Ireland👍
Hey! Thanks for coming to see my video. I did not know about the BRGB (Big Rig Group Build) until your posting. I'll have to look into this. See y'all later! Take care from Texas!
Thank you, There is so much extra detail that can be done on these kits. Sometimes it is hard to decide when to stop! Thank you for watching and for the comments.
Thank you! I appreciate the comment. This is one of my more detailed semi builds. I still have the double trailer set to build to complete the set. Thanks again for the comment and for watching the video. Best wishes!
Thank you for the comment and for watching the video! This model has gotten the most views out of all my videos. I need to build another truck soon! Best wishes!
Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it! I wanted to add as much as I could and keep it fun. For me, adding these little details is just icing on the cake. Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. Best wishes!
The wiring, especially like the injector lines, is tedious. It takes time and a bunch of patience. I must admit I get frustrated with it too from time to time. It sometimes takes me months to complete a build like this. I get frustrated with a section and put it down and walk away. I'll come back later and things seem to go a little more smoothly after a break. My catch phrase is "kicking the ball is half the fun!" Meaning the building of the kit is half, if not more, of the enjoyment. I take as much time as I need to complete a kit. Once it is finished, I have to find something else to occupy my time. (Another model kit?) Thank you for your comments and for watching my video.
Thanks for watching and I owe Jeff a big thanks as well! I appreciate you watching the video and for the comments! I have hit a dry spell and have not been at the bench for sometime. Hopefully I can start another project soon. Until then I will be posting some videos on past projects. Thank you again!
Thank you so much for watching the video. I hope to have more videos out soon. I build models on many subjects so you never know what I will have up next! Thanks for subscribing!
I am overwhelmed by the responses this video has gotten, and by your comments. Thanks so much for visiting and for the comments! I got to check out Aires Styrene!
WOW! Thank you for the comment and for watching the video. I certainly appreciate it when you take the time to comment. My next "Rig" to be built will be an Autocar. I drove a 1982 model where I work. I plan on converting the model to represent the truck I drove. It was an all wheel drive 65' double bucket truck. I'm trying to dig up photos to start gathering materials. Wish me luck! Thanks again for the comments and for watching the video.
Thank you for the comment and for watching the video. I actually spent about two or maybe three months on this kit if memory serves. I worked on it off and on as I had time. Not getting in a hurry and enjoying the build is part of the fun for me. Thank you again!
Dam excellent job sir my specs would be different : wheel base to short for a sleeper oh like it's a extended hood but anyway day cab fuel up front cab and hood raised another 5in higher for above frame exhaust routing battery mounted top of frame behind cab no quarter fenders or any other just spring loaded mud flap holders and 1in thick rubber mud flaps oh and 13.25 duplex wheels and tires for front steering
Sounds to me like you enjoy modified trucks. What you describe would be an interesting build, I would like to see it. I am considering lengthening the frame on my next big rig build. I just don't know when I will get around to it. I'm considering revisiting this model an removing the fender graphics. Thanks for you comment and for watching the video. Best wishes!
Well, it's kinda like a roller coaster. You start detailing one part and that leads to the next and that leads to the next. Before you know it your getting carried away on the details! And like a roller coaster, IT"S FUN!!!!!! Thank you for watching the video and for your comments. I certainly appreciate both!
Thank you for the comments. The injector lines, air hoses and other lines are made several ways. The first is to get these wires in small sizes from the hobby store. I look in the jewelry section of Hobby Lobby but any craft store should carry these wires. You can also take some stranded small gauge electrical wire and separate out a single strand to utilize. Wire of almost any size can be ordered on the web too. I have also heated up a length of plastic sprue from a model kit. Hold the plastic over a candle flame until it softens, then stretch it out. You can get any size of line you need doing this. It also makes great antennas too! Thank you for watching and best wishes on your builds.
Toutes mes excuses mais je ne parle pas français. J'ai traduit ce message pour comprendre vos commentaires. Je vais essayer de faire une traduction française. Cela prendra du temps. Merci!
Great build! I plan on building my Kenworth “Movin On” model I’ve had for 20 years or so. Will use some of your ideas to make it “better than new”.
Thank you for the comment and for watching the video! The "Movin On" model is a classic and should be a great build. I wish you the best on your model! Thanks again!
Absolutely incredible detail..! I used to think the many kits I built in the 80's were pretty good but some of the builds I'm seeing now put me to shame. Well done mate

@@modelsbymonte2431 no problem Jeff it's a fun build 😀
Awesome job, especially like all the detail work.
Thank you, There is so much extra detail that can be done on these kits. Sometimes it is hard to decide when to stop! Thank you for watching and for the comments.
It looks sensational !!!
Thank you! I appreciate the comment. This is one of my more detailed semi builds. I still have the double trailer set to build to complete the set. Thanks again for the comment and for watching the video. Best wishes!

Thank you! And thanks for watching the video!
Fantastic! Really nice build.

Superb attention to detail. Very nice work.
Thank you! I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching the video!
amazing you did a super nice build so many fine details 👍👍
Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it! I wanted to add as much as I could and keep it fun. For me, adding these little details is just icing on the cake. Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. Best wishes!
Awesome work on this kit.
Thanks so much, I appreciate the comment! Best wishes!
Quite nice! I envy your wiring skills- my fingers don't work that well anymore.
The wiring, especially like the injector lines, is tedious. It takes time and a bunch of patience. I must admit I get frustrated with it too from time to time. It sometimes takes me months to complete a build like this. I get frustrated with a section and put it down and walk away. I'll come back later and things seem to go a little more smoothly after a break. My catch phrase is "kicking the ball is half the fun!" Meaning the building of the kit is half, if not more, of the enjoyment. I take as much time as I need to complete a kit. Once it is finished, I have to find something else to occupy my time. (Another model kit?) Thank you for your comments and for watching my video.

Thanks! i appreciate your comments and thank you for watching the video.
absolutly incredible!!!!! it is realy the best build i ever seen! =)
WOW! Thank you for the comment and for watching the video. I certainly appreciate it when you take the time to comment. My next "Rig" to be built will be an Autocar. I drove a 1982 model where I work. I plan on converting the model to represent the truck I drove. It was an all wheel drive 65' double bucket truck. I'm trying to dig up photos to start gathering materials. Wish me luck! Thanks again for the comments and for watching the video.
Great build !!!!! 😇👍🏼
Thanks! I appreciate that!
Mean looking beast, love it. 😀
Thank you! I appreciate the comments!
Very nicely truck build how long did take to do I love the detail you put into detailing it Very nice job with that kw w900
Thank you for the comment and for watching the video. I actually spent about two or maybe three months on this kit if memory serves. I worked on it off and on as I had time. Not getting in a hurry and enjoying the build is part of the fun for me. Thank you again!
Dam excellent job sir my specs would be different : wheel base to short for a sleeper oh like it's a extended hood but anyway day cab fuel up front cab and hood raised another 5in higher for above frame exhaust routing battery mounted top of frame behind cab no quarter fenders or any other just spring loaded mud flap holders and 1in thick rubber mud flaps oh and 13.25 duplex wheels and tires for front steering
Sounds to me like you enjoy modified trucks. What you describe would be an interesting build, I would like to see it. I am considering lengthening the frame on my next big rig build. I just don't know when I will get around to it. I'm considering revisiting this model an removing the fender graphics. Thanks for you comment and for watching the video. Best wishes!
awesome !
Thank you again for your support of my videos, I sincerely appreciate it!
Nice!
Thank you!
Wow. Don’t know how you do it!
Well, it's kinda like a roller coaster. You start detailing one part and that leads to the next and that leads to the next. Before you know it your getting carried away on the details! And like a roller coaster, IT"S FUN!!!!!! Thank you for watching the video and for your comments. I certainly appreciate both!

How do you do the sparks wires? And the air lines.?where I can find that size of wires?
Thank you for the comments. The injector lines, air hoses and other lines are made several ways. The first is to get these wires in small sizes from the hobby store. I look in the jewelry section of Hobby Lobby but any craft store should carry these wires. You can also take some stranded small gauge electrical wire and separate out a single strand to utilize. Wire of almost any size can be ordered on the web too. I have also heated up a length of plastic sprue from a model kit. Hold the plastic over a candle flame until it softens, then stretch it out. You can get any size of line you need doing this. It also makes great antennas too! Thank you for watching and best wishes on your builds.
