HO Excavator.

[Guest]

Hi all!


I been for a while without posting nothing. (I'm just looking for my "Mojo" back.....)


And......I found this lovely excavator at 1:87 scale.






The challenge is weathering she, at this tiny scale!!






The first step is dismounting the kit.






Cheers

With patience I scratch build the hydraulic system and added some bits looking for a better and real presence.












The next step will be the primer coat.


Thanks for looking
