Asplundh Truck
Well... I can admit when I'm defeated. I ran out of time, and the two attempts I made to create the bucket flopped. So... there's a boom and bucket without the bucket. Sigh. Covered in fondant, airbrushed, and set on platforms which were screwed to the base. Wheels are RKT covered in fondant, and boom was created from wooden dowels, covered in fondant. As always, thanks for looking!
Wow, just fabulous. Great job.
Well I never would've made as far as you did- this looks great!!!
If this is defeat I'd like to see success!! :? :? Really awesome job, I wouldn't have known it was missing something if you didn't say so!
Two thumbs up from me! Looks great!
I think your truck is a great sucess. I personally didn't notice the missing bucket until I read your explanation. The recipient will love it. Great job.
Thank you guys... that makes me feel SO much better. BTW - I forgot to mention... ...the base is poured black royal icing with two vials of sivler mixed in to make it look like blacktop.
Oh - also, the back of the truck was carved from 2 9x13's, and the other two parts from 8x8's... ...it's a HUGE cake. :)
OMG! This is FANTASTIC ! Great job, danielle 111 !
This looks great , and I agree I wouldn't have known anything was missing!
