    Lovely work. There is plenty of detail here to take your eye isn’t there.

      Thanks Tim, it is a nicely detailed kit but as with all these chassis and engines it will soon be hidden away never to be seen again!

        Coming on very nicely.

        As you say, is a shame that a lot of it will be hidden away, never to be seen again.

          This is why I usually dry-fit things like the cab and bonnet to see which parts underneath them can go straight into the spares box With a lot of soft skins you can leave the entire engine out, or only fit the sump, and nobody will be the wiser.

            Hi Mark
            As Tim says there is some lovely detail. Just hope that quite a lot can still be seen on the completed model. Your build is very neat and clean :thumb2:

                        Looking very good indeed.

                        Well done.

                          Mark,
                          That's looking very good! I'm now tempted, and I can resist everything except temptation!

                            Lovely work. The etched nameplate is a nice touch.

                                Oh! I just noticed something I picked up on another forum recently when someone else built one of these: Is the central part of that crane boom fixed in place yet, or still movable? Because it should sit parallel with the two side booms, not between them (like, I gather, this kit almost wants you to put it):
