truckabilly Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Top class work, as always. Among other details I like the ash in the excavator cab and the greasy deck. Marvelous!
gotnitro? Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 How'd I miss this ? That's fantastic work and every detail shows. Trumpeter as of lately has really brought out very detailed kits that seem to fly of the shelves . Thanks for posting this

I just heavily modified the kit and added scratch built and kit-bashed parts. The kit should have looked like this:

Belugawrx Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 Very accurate paint work Charles! What medium (paints) are you working with here?

Glad you think so. I am using a combination of Tamiya spray paints and automotive spray paints from the can. I do not use an airbrush...yet. I have bought one, but need a compressor and a place to keep it. Edited January 17, 2018 by tiking
Safire6 Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 That is simply amazing! So realistic. How long did it take to complete? Just curious.

smhardesty Posted August 1, 2018 Posted August 1, 2018 Charles, this is the third of your works I've viewed now. I'm just as blown away by this one as I was by the other two. You really are an artist. Very realistic and superb detailing and weathering. Fantastic!

Foxer Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 This is just exquisite and, FYI, there's oil leaking on the deck ...
