Ryoken's 89 Crew Cab Tubebed build... aka Mutt....

Truck is looking awesome, really like that setting.
That being said, i always think my truck poses better flexed with the closest corner extended not stuffed. Truck looks a lot smaller with the closest corner stuffed. Does that make sense?
I like #1. This is a work truck, to me it looks really cool in the industrial setting, but not necessarily flexed out.
yes, yes it does... I'm gonna keep that in mind....
that's why it's there....
not sure how i feel about the poser flex.... think I'll give Can Man the option....
thanks guys, I always appreciate the outside perspective..

I'm in the shop
The first one of the three.these are the other 3 I'm considering from that series........ i still need to go in and crop em down a bit maybe...
opinions are always welcome.......
might try to get out tomorrow after work, have an area i wanna go look at....
ok, cleaned these up a bit, and here's the ones I've narrowed it down to... maybe I can sneak a couple new ones in by friday....
I'm really leaning towards #1, 2 or 3....
the non flex one....
the same, cropped....
"down the line" view..
far rear....
and far front....
I really like ones showing the front plate/bumper stuff.... everyone's always about the bed, but I really love how the front came together....
maybe one day I'll upgrade the headlights somewhat.... but i hate the look the little individual LED looking headlights give ya... I want performance, but not at the expense of them looking stoopid when off...
next weekend I'm gonna get out for the day and concentrate on the other style of pics i want to bulk up on, all the closer up details people always ask me about.... some better night shots... before I return the camera... maybe a walkthru vid... and definitely some gitchy cool instagram truck hoe shots...

Definitely the non flexed version! That looks perfect
I tend to agree..... it's a dually, not a wheelin rig....
i think i like the full shot better than the cropped one..... Mutt being a bit off center gives it a bit better feel i think...

You should put a chain from your bumper to the building and make it look like you're about to pull it.

Gotta be someplace around the marina for a picture at the crack of dawn or sunset?
this brings up a couple observations... as I alluded to, last yr's shot was a water scene, didn't want that again, per se...
but more importantly, I've learned the background makes the pic when you have a dually....
it's hard to find anything cool where I live... it's all cr@p suburbs... some guys drive down the street and have incredible mt's, etc... I do plan to take the rig over to the beach dunes, with the ocean in the background.. but don't think I'll get that done before the weekend... from now, till x-mas may be the busiest time of the yr for me... still have about 100 boats to wrap....
oh, this was the place I tried to find the other day, but got rained out...
I like this one https://ck5.com/forums/media/dddddd.34723/full , but maybe try some from real low looking up at the truck and those massive towers. Put your camera on a tripod and get it low. Would also like to see some from rear end of the truck and those towers. Pick up a remote flash button for it and try some at sunrise and sunset. Bracket the crap out of them, take hundreds and you will find ONE that you really love.
Looks great!

nah, just trying to take advantage of the killa camera after 10 months of stooopid hr's redoing the bed...
I have some low shots.. I don't tend to like them as much.. can't see the bed panels, etc... maybe I need to try some from ground level... I'll chock that up to gitchy cool instagram truck hoe shots I need to work on....
this one's a bit lower...
