Currently enjoying Winter Break¹ and having recently completed my entry into the Local Motor's RIG2 competition² I felt this would be an ideal opportunity to revisit some of my older mods that had been pushed aside while I've been busy.

My first priority is to try and finish the Kenworth T908. I've completed nearly all of the mesh and texture work but my key aim now is to build a realistic, deforming N/B from the ground up. Having little experience with N/B building and having the intelligence of a potato in general, this will be a rather substantial learning curve for me. So far I've completed the main chassis of the truck. It needs a little more tweaking but I'm happy with it at the moment.

Don't expect this to be completed too soon but I WILL finish it.

¹ That's right, not everyone lives in the U.S.

Good job on that one, as usual.

There's a plethora of interchangeable parts, including a Bullbar

Great looking truck, looks like your dads but different colour, but that is maybe the reason you made it? because you can get pics almost when you want & know the truck very well?

Well I've always wanted to build a T908 regardless, they're just such badass trucks. The fact that my dad drives one is super convenient though. When I was modelling and got stuck on something I could literally just walk outside and check to make sure I was on the right track. It also helps with stuff that often you can't get photo references of.
