The foam canister is a work of art in itself.

Hello to all,
this evening i finished the fire hoses. In the photos you see pieces of connectors, the tube made with a paper straw and the 10 complete fire hoses loaded on the trailer. I seem to come good...What do you think?

We used to have a small firetruck when I was a kid more years ago then iIwill amit to in the little town in Central California where I grew up, based on a 1946 or "48 Ford pickup as a rescuce wagon, so I believe the truck shown here really was used, especially with the narrow streets ij italy I've seen on some of the Travel shows I've seen on PBS!

The amount of accurate looking detail in this model is simply incredible.
It gives the appearance of complete fidelity to the lifesize original. Some of the locomotives seen on this forum are as deeply detailed, yet this model being so much smaller in real life goes even further in detailing than those Masterpieces of Modelling. I am, simply put, beyond impressed, and completely astounded as to the extremely realistic details depicted in and by this model. It stands as a great tribute to the fine designing and modelling skills our friend Enrico has. Kind and Respectful Regards Enrico my friend, Uyraell.

So, except that those hoses are too clean ("just out of showroom" condition) and the connectors too shiny (are those gold-plated?), it looks very excellent . (by the way, clean hoses still have the fabric texture on the outside, but that's not easy to discern visually - it becomes visible due to the dust/mud buildup that's cleaned only with water, not soap/..., and also due to the chaffing they get in use). (and sorry for the long post, and I love what you've done with the fire hoses, and this post is not meant to detract from what you've done - it's just that fire hoses unprotected on top of a fire engine would get dirty sooner or later - more probably sooner). And while the firefighters would take great care in cleaning the trucks/cars to shining perfection, connectors would stay in their natural aluminium status (i.e. oxidised), and the firehoses would be mud-free but of a not-so-white colour - somewhere halfway between natural hemp and perfect white colour. |
