To model a small-town Ontario snowplow from the early 1980s, Bob thinned the bodywork on a Revell 1/24 scale GMC pickup with a rotary tool for rust, ripped the seats, and scratchbuilt a snow shovel and sandbag for the bed. He painted it with Vallejo acrylics with plenty of post-shading and weathered with oils, enamels, Vallejo Mecha Colors weathering shades, and AK Interactive snow. “I included period-correct Tim Hortons containers, license plates, and window stickers,” he says.
