[MOC] Small Octan Tanker

Recommended Posts

Hello! Today I am going to show you one of my few MOC's, and as the title states, its and Octan Tanker!

Basically, I didn't like the look of the 3180 Tanker, I thought it was to small, and therefore out of scale to the minifig. So, I decided to re-create the tanker, but in a bigger scale, so it would match the scale of the minifig.

I think I used pretty much only the parts from the set, maybe a couple extra, I can't remember. Anyway, here it is!

Front of the Tanker, it's a very nice little snug build. Sorry about the fail of a white background, and poor lighting.

The side of the tanker,I just realised the red does not line up... Also, the stickers may look a bit dirty, because I had to put tape over them to keep the on, hopefully in the future I will get some new stickers, and fix the alignment!

Here you can see the back of the truck, it has a hose for transporting the fuel, and a torch, the checking out the inside of the tanker!

Hope you like it! I will probably post pictures of the fixes when I get time to doing them.

I like it, it's very cute :sweet: nice amount of detail all around and the stickers are a good touch!

I look forward to seeing the modifications once done, happy building :laugh:
