Stickers!!!

I made some custom stickers to go along with the Tow Truck. My last name is Mead, so I decided to make Mead's Towing and Recovery. Also made some yellow stripes to complete the stripe around the truck. Also added a New York L\license plate.

Other minor details changed is the truck lift. Lego trucks sit so low, it's hard to make a lift that will go underneath on it's own, yet strong enough to lift the truck. Also, changed the rear lights, and added spot lights.

Now to make another video. Let me know what you think!!

Nice! how do you make the stickers?

I used microsoft paint. I did learn the hard way to print on white backed labels instead of clear labels. I thought using the clear would be perfect so that I only needed to print the letters and it would blend in. The clear looks like scotch tape on the plastic, and the ink was see-through, making the colors dark on the black.

You have Made a really good progress, and i really like your building, good luck!

That is looking pretty good! I like the color combination on the crane. The yellow really makes it pop.

Hmmm... there will be some competition with "Lipko's 24 hour towing service" (with stickers )

Great tow truck. Clean lines and color coordinated wheels, should be a lego set. If my concrete truck brakes down Ill call you for a tow.
