Neil Carleton brought in this exquisitely detailed Jordan Highway Miniatures Kit of a Railway Express Agency truck to the club’s monthly model display at our last meeting, held at the Charleswood Legion on November 15.
Neil used Styrene solvent to assemble the piece and CA glue for the smaller parts. He airbrushed it with Tamyia primer, then sprayed and brush painted it, applied decals and sprayed it with Vallejo satin varnish.
Jordan kits do not have a tab and slot or a pin and hole construction, and Neil found that it was a challenge to assemble. The rear axle was too long, so Neil drilled it out and replaced it with a short piece of wire. The front bumper mounts were too short, and he also replaced them with wire. Neil used Dspiae chrome paint and used it on the radiator trim.
