A revised version of my original WSOR MP15AC. I revised the trucks and fuel tank, moved the ditchlights so they won't interfere with the coupler, and rebuilt the cab windows with my new technique that allows me to actually attach them. Unfortunately, this meant a bit of sacrifice on the back windows because my new technique doesn't allow me to lower them below side windows or make them more than one brick wide. But I'm still pretty satisfied with the results.
After trying the Wintercraft ice lantern kit, I changed how I inflated and positioned the other balloons that I use for making globe ice lanterns. Instead of putting them knot-end down, I'm placing them in the bowls (with large rubber stoppers in the centers to produce an unfrozen indentation in the ice lantern) with the knot end up, and blowing air into the balloon as it sits in the bowl, before tying it shut. This allows the balloon to be inflated just the right amount to fit inside the bowl.
