20 Foot Container Trailer Intermodal 1/24 Scale Model Kit Build How To Decals Weather Rust Fade

[@devinrussell493]

Here's a fun fact that most people are unaware of;while shipping containers are an international commodity today,they were invented here in the U.S.A by a blue collar worker in the late 1940's;and the man that invented the iconic shipping container,became a multi-millionaire at the time he had patented the shipping container.If the inventor of the shipping container were to still be alive today;he would be a multi-billionaire because of how big the global shipping industry would become nearly 80 years,after the invention of the shipping container.

[@johnfellows2867]

Were'nt they invented by McClean Trucking of Winston Salem ?

[@DashaModels]

Hm, interesting trailer model

[@GymbalLock]

I have four model kits that need working on. Why am I watching somebody build models instead of actually build my own kits?

[@13Dixiefried]

Cause you need a break lol.

[@TheBatman-1989]

Get to building!

[@brunoskorniak9722]

Only four? I got about 20! Gotta get started!😊

[@kimstanley6496]

YEAH 👍 👍 👍 MAN THAT'S WHAT They LOOK LIKE USED and Aboused CONTAINER YARD' GREAT BUILD VERY"NICE 10-4.

[@brunoskorniak9722]

Wow! Great build! U have a great eye for detail! The rubbing off of the paint on the locking corner castings, the chalking and streaking of the logo and the soot marks. Cool! Im so used to weathering these in 1/87 ho scale! Great post!😁

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Very cool, that is a kit you can have fun weathering! 👍👍👍

[@r.a.monigold9789]

I can barely CONTAIN my excitement for this Diorama centerpiece. Add a roof off one side and split the interior into two spaces - office and shop and you got a garage along old Route 66. Many more ideas as well. Thanks for the build and the exceptional detailing. Until next time - I'm rolling on out.

[@richardlee1092]

Great job Chris; straight from the hold of the Ever forward to your bench! Looks very realistic! Thanks for spending the time with us. 🙂

[@maryfiltz800]

Looks great - lots of nice decals on this one.

[@cheezst8ke]

nice looking trailer. Find a nice looking tractor to put with it.

[@redkevful]

Nice build as per normal. Just one thing, the storage box in front of the first axle is actually a fire extinguisher box and should therefore be painted red

[@davidbarr49]

A lot of great music on this one. Very interesting build of an international item, and one we see all the time.

[@RobertoDomeneghini-cx9tw]

È troppo bello ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@robertcates4066]

Oh know Chris, I just saw a twin axle one, here in Kansas City, the chassis was flat gray!!! Oh no, what will you do???? L O L , awesome kit Chris. Love what you do for us/you!! Keep the videos, coming!!

[@hpiguy]

I did one like that. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pom4dXRph856a68

[@Latno74]

Hey Chris I’m Chris too I’m from the uk and love your videos I drive a truck all over Europe and I also make models in my spare time (When I get some that is) I’m currently doing a weathered container model with open doors and a rotted out mopar hanging out of the back And this video was what inspired me to do it So thank you Like I say I watch all your videos when I’m parked up all over Europe and love them because they’re so easy watching and relaxing Keep up the good work mate You’re a inspiration to a lot of people

[@hpiguy]

Thank you, and keep having fun!

[@johngligo4049]

Love the trailer Chris! That weathering stands out!!

[@donaldstutes9194]

What is the best glue to use on plastic model kits?

[@Forcemaster2000]

I'd like to know this as well! I see no brand name on the cap that hpiguy uses

[@michaelmoline7058]

I've never been able to find what he uses but I've had good luck with either Tamiya thin stuff or revell contaca pro (my most used stuff), I totally forget what he uses

[@hpiguy]

I don't believe in saying 'this is the best' for anything, but I personally like Plastruct Bondene and that's the brush on glue you see me using in every video. Thanks

[@waynehawkins9090]

Nice looking build sir! Attach it to one of your trucks you built and you will have a nice looking rig!

[@richardneale246]

Great kit Chris. Italeri does the ISO Container on its own as a kit. I've built the ISO tanker "Stolt" version. Great kit. I'm building he Mobeius 53' smooth sided trailer, at the moment. Massive, quite a challenge.

[@hawk6dm7]

What you need for it now is one of Italeri's Scania Cabover model kits.

[@josepenate7367]

Champion 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍💖

[@toddburlingame2186]

Great job

[@robertcecola2148]

This would look awesome on the Mack r model ❤

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

Those tires sounds like they might be re-tread’s or re-caps, cool though, that’s what some truckers and trucking companies like to buy is re-tread’s, saves on the budget or whatever! But anywho, very very nice buddy, as always!! Rock on 🤘

[@scottfreeman3748]

Great video Chris the weathering looks awesome

[@michaelcooke2559]

Great job. Excellent weathering technique. Wonderful tutorial on weathering. As usual, thanks for sharing.

[@hpiguy]

Thank you very much!

[@doublenickelbob]

Great video Chris, I like it but too $$$$

[@diecast_MikeEspo]

Great kit . Awesome work as always. To KOOOOOLLLLL . WOW WOW .

[@markbuterbuagh4971]

Super cool really nice job Chris.

[@seamybmw]

Very well done Chris nice weathering 👍👍

[@samuelvasquez8170]

Awesome

[@tomlappin9657]

Chris, another great kit build / review. Many ideas come to mind on this kit .

[@mikemerritt1756]

Another great build! Looks like a great model!

[@hpiguy]

Thank you very much!

[@RaysBlueBasementWorkshop]

Nice looking kit but $80 is a little to much.

[@strummerjoe2199]

Using a pipette as a vacuum is genius.

[@gerwindus8289]

Very nice built but you've missed a very important detail.... There are no decals (containernumber) on the top. How would a stacker recognise if he/she has picked the right container now? ;)

[@GymbalLock]

How well do these trailers connect to tractors from other model manufacturers?

[@Merylstreep1949]

Since you sealed that container, is Schrodingers' Cat inside??? Lolz

[@openexhaustmodels5139]

Brilliant mate👍

[@hpiguy]

Thanks 👍

[@Merylstreep1949]

I'm building mine for the country of KickassIstan lol or maybe Portmerion or Lyme Regis

[@Dylanesque]

Rather than juggling with all the frame crossmember parts and chassis rails in the assembly (Stage 3) I first cemented the coupling plate to both chassis rails and allowed the assembly to set. After an hour or so you can assemble the remaing crossmembers in turn working from the front to the rear. A number of rubber bands help to keep the assemble fairly rigid until all glue joints have set solid. Regarding Italeri models, have you noticed how misleading some of their diagrams are? Or just plain wrong? 🥴

[@13Dixiefried]

Can you imagine the size of a 1/25 scale container ship? 😬

[@hpiguy]

At 1200 feet it would be about 50 feet long in scale. I'll need a few pallets of Rustoleum for that.

[@stevenholland7786]

Have to you have done a lovely paint job but your glueing is terrible you don't do anything about mold seems or ejector pin marks i have seen this a lot over the last few years the hobby has become about painting and weathing not building technique it takes away from the model i love what you are doing just an old moders thoughts 😊

[@barnydrunk]

Nice little (or big) kit, have you noticed that italeri and revell, european kit manufactures, make the european truck kits in 1/24 but make american and australian truck kits in 1/25 scale for some reason?

[@gerwindus8289]

Revell makes European trucks in 1/25 scale to ;)

[@GymbalLock]

1:00:54 What's being done with the popsicle stick here?

[@13Dixiefried]

Sanding off some of the lettering, an it's a finger nail file.

[@chrisC052]

Awesome build, paint and weathering. Question is this trailer compatible with the AMT and Revell tractors? Again excellent work.

[@stevefulcher8031]

I really love your videos. Excellent work. Unrelated question. I was wondering if you know where I can purchase wide drag tires and wheels from. I enjoy trying to make drag cars. Thanks
