Hi every one,I'm from vietnam this is my first truck paper models,it's not looking good

[Bionic Modeler]

Notlooking good? Really? If this is what you think "isn't looking good" is , I can't wait to see your work when it meets with your approval.

Looks pretty good to me... nice work.

[ashevilleangler]

That's a pretty ambitious model for a first build. And considering that Betaxa isn't necessarily the best quality of models I'd say you did just fine. Don't judge your work by comparison to others who have been at it for years, decades even. And printed models give you only one chance to get each part right. If you have access to card stock and a printer consider doing one of the downloadable models on this site. Then you can build each part as many times as you wish till you get something that you like.

I agree with Curt et al....it looks just fine for a Betexa kit build. The only critique I would add is to color the cut edges, but I'm not a fanatic of that subject.

Very good work, I like it. The only recomendation that I have, is to color the edges so that the white does not throw off your work and people will say, "No way that is paper" Keep it up and waiting to see more.

By the way, is the trailer going to be a flat bed, or a container. Or if possible, make both.

I agree with Silveroxide about the white edges and also would like to see both flatbed / container.
