Glad you liked it. Thank you kindly.

Thank you for that. I was looking at both kits, Iveco and the Volvo fire ladder kits, and both are very very similar.

Thank you kindly. Glad you like the results. My humble thanks.

This build came about by converting and scratch building, the old Volvo F6 Fire ladder kit. I had bought this a couple of years ago at a exhibition together with other second kits. I did not know what to do with the kit, until recent. So, it is no more a fire truck but an old beavertail machine transport carrier. I see many most enthusiast convert old and sometimes new trucks into other types of themes to suit their intensions. This might carry a lot of load but ,we'll consider this a private farmer or truck company wanting to have easy access to transport small and medium size machinery to their destination without renting. I was thinking of adding a Volvo F16 but not too sure.

Kind of you to reply. My humble thanks. I'm glad you like the results. Thanks.

I updated this old diorama by adding a MF farm tractotor. You guys probably remember the MF I made as seperate vignette. I decided to incoporate it into this diorama as to solve the empty space that this diorama had. I just wanted to make use of it. Thanks for looking.

Weathering tyres can be just as satisfying as modeling an entire model. Here are some that I did, which most of you have already seen. I used Citadel Mournfang Brown, and graveyard brown, and earth/brown filter/shade colors to add depth. I used a sponge with stipple effect to achieve the spotted rust and worn effect. Also, used Vallejo dust pigments on some of the tyres to give the dusty effect.

Thank you so much. Glad you like it. :)

Kind and uplifting words but certainly not above you guys.

Thank you

I did not know anyone would notice, but you did. I did not have any decals in 1/35 scale that would work. So I just took something from my 'box of tricks' until I could find something else.

Yeah. I realized that. At the time I did not have any 1/35 scale license plate that fit the container at the time. So I used something that was from my box of tricks. I Did not know anyone would notice. But I guess someone else did. Good eye.
