chuckyr Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 This guy made this diorama in 1/64th scale. A 1/25th - 1/24th scale diorama would be huge! http://hankstruckforum.com/htforum/index.php?action=profile;area=showposts;u=84
Jim B Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 That's pretty cool! And it's one busy terminal.
ARTEMIS1759 Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 That is another idea I can add to my list. Me and my Dad are working on building one big diorama for our trucks and other vehicles. Functional Grain Elevator, Truck Stop, Truck Repair, Dealership, Junkyard and a few stores. He has an abandon 2 bedroom house we plan to rip the walls out of.
Ben Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 There's a couple guys that have made truck stops in 1/64 that are twice as big as that terminal. That takes a lot of space!
ARTEMIS1759 Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Yeah that is why we figure this house should have a fair amount of space. Its about 750 squ feet give or take.
greymack Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Just wondring if Hank's truck forum is up ?
BigBad Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Just wondring if Hank's truck forum is up ? Hey Mr. Mack, first, great real name for this forum! Second, interesting avatar you have there, looks like a cross between a 34 Ford,a Peterbilt and a crew cab pickup truck!
scale trucker Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 that is cool.would like to build a peterbilt dealer but that will take up some room.....
jekylljr Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Would be awesome to have this in 1/24 scale still he did an excellent job
metalhead Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 I've thought about building a diorama for the company I work for. The only thing is that we have over 20 loading doors. That can get very expensive as when in the mornings, every single door is used. Also, finding the different makes of trucks would be kinda difficult to find. Plus, our building is huge, so it would be almost 5-6 feet long and about 6 feet in width in 1/64. RYAN.
BigBad Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Bob, it sure looks like a Seagrave cab. So that would explain the crew cab... Thanks Dave!
Dingo5162 Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 That's one heck of an idea BUT in 1/24th or 25th scale I'd get sick of building trucks, my son did a rally scene once with cars in the staging area never again he says, wow took him 8 solid months to get it altogether some cars had working lights etc, and he builds that kind of stuff for a living.

chuckyr Posted March 5, 2012 Author Posted March 5, 2012 I'd get sick of building trucks, Dingo Are you sure you are posting on the right board?
Matt "W" Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Bob, it sure looks like a Seagrave cab. Dave, I do believe you are right. Judging by the length, (unless it was lengthened by whoever added the ramp deck) it was a ladder truck.
Dingo5162 Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 Yea chuchyr I'm posting on the right board buddy, it was a sarcastic remark because of the size of a 1/24th or 1/25th build I think that after a while it would drive U completely loopy or of ya nut I find it bad enough when i've got two or three cars on the go at once, I know some of U guys thrive on that sort of stuff BUT I don't once a build is over I have a rest for a wekk or two then find my next project which would take another week or two to list up after that its into buying the gear to start all over again, I'm just not as crazt as U yanks R when it comes to building truck after truck I luv to build a project then sit back and admire it for a bit.
