Hi Guys! So I know this is well over due, but here are the pictures of my completed transporter. Of course it wouldn't be right if I didn't try to set it up to look like the real truck so my photo shoot was done outside. (That and I didn't have anywhere big enough to take photos of it inside. icon_giggles ) Thanks to dad for lending me his photo shooting area. I was lucky enough to have this finished just in time for the end of the year and the team's final season in supercars which adds an extra element to my model transporter matching their truck for their final year. Now as you may know, I am friends with the truck driver of the real truck and I was able to meet up with him to not only show him my model but to take some pictures. I love the perspective and size difference between the model and the real truck and I am super proud of how it turned out. I hope that you have enjoyed following along with the story behind my build of this transporter. There have been plenty of ups and downs but the end result has definitely been worth it.

This thing rocks!! I'd say the end result is worth it, awesome job two-thumbs-up-smiley-emoticon icon_shoutout_zpsg7nrfmdc praising-the-lord-smiley-emoticon big-drooling-smiley-emoticon cant-believe-my-eyes-smiley-emoticon. It was my pleasure to be able to offer advice when needed especially as I didn't actually have to follow the advice rolling. Looks like I'm going to have to come up with a bigger photo base if any more of these come along!! This is a real credit to you and you should be super proud of the result. Very keen to see where to next for your modelling.

Feel so privileged to have been interviewed last year for an article about being a female modeller and then again to be able to write a story on the Garry Rogers motorsport transporter I built last year. It is great to be able to share my story. I'm so proud of what I have been able to achieve.
