CRUSADER2

Thanks everybody for the kind comments, OK I will leave it alone ( for now) anyway I am now working on the Marmon again after a long summer break, will post some pics soon, as the chassis is starting to come together now and hopefully I will get some primer on it before xmas, cheers all.

Very interesting project, It's looking good.

Looks great!! by the way, that is one hell of a busy workshop, bet they don't get many weekends off working there, what's booked in next?

What a weird looking beast, but it looks great, a really nice job, love it!!

That's neat, like the colour, looks really good, top job!!!!

Hi Jaroslav & Rick, thanks for the comments, its an Australian Atkinson, non like this one ever worked in Britain, more's the pity, the Atkinson plant in Australia was completely independent from the British Seddon Atkinson part of the company and were left to develop trucks to suite the Australian market and conditions, another marque long gone now unfortunately. But for modelling purposes what if ?????

Its looking great, excellent work!!

Fantastic work, great modeling and attention to detail, love the Kenworth SAR, hard to beat for looks and presence, the earlier one from the late sixties with the narrow bonnet and grill looks great too, once again, a top job, brilliant!!!

Hi fellow modelers, thanks for the comments, I had to break off after I started putting on the photo's so here are some more, thanks for the interest in the Atkinson.

Maybe a little more weathering later when I can get to Britain for some weathering powders.

Its looking good, another interesting project, great work as always Hermann

Looks great, nice to see something a bit different, a really nice job, great work and detail!!!

Inspirational work Alain, detail & weathering just brilliant, a real top job all round!!! Checked out the MACK 700 Sergey, that looks great too, interesting subject to model.

They both look fantastic, really great work!!!

MACK looks great, can't see what is wrong with the photo's myself, everything looks in proportion, great idea for the photo's. Did I miss the MACK build? it looks fantastic, especially the weathering and detail, brilliant job!!!

That looks great, really like the paint scheme and colours with the lining, excellent job!!!

Great idea

Absolutely fantastic, brilliant, really inspirational work, the attention to detail is second to none, a real show winner!!! Makes you just want to get in and drive it, but maybe not on the road though eh? still it reminds me of one we had where I worked for a while back in the 80s, that one was still just about road worthy. Anyway just brilliant!!!

Phew! that's brilliant, what a great idea, excellent work too, love it !!!

This is going to be another good one, really interesting, i'm going to follow your build closely for tips, aspecially the weathering, good luck with it.

Only just spotted this one, its looking good, how is it coming along?

Looks good to me, its hard to beat a k100 for looks, like it a lot!!

That is a really nice piece of work, excellent job all round, really like the cab interior though, great detail with the dash fans as well. Trying to get some for my current build but they never seem to be in stock, anyway, fantastic job!!! all the best from France.

That's a show stopper for sure, brilliant, like every one says the weathering and attention to detail is as good as it gets, inspirational work!!

Looks brilliant, a real top job, fantastic detailed work and finish, excellent, what else can you say!!!
