Rich Ghia Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 This has been a labour of love over a number of years. I built the rig about 10 years ago and just displayed this on the bookcase. I purchased the trailer with the idea of putting some heavy payloads on the back but never found the right vehicle in the right scale and then two kids happened. It's been in a box for years but since lockdown I've picked the kits back up again. I discovered that AMT had re-released the bulldozer in 1/24 scale and knew it had a place to go. This is my first real attempt at weathering and I'm pretty happy with the results. Also added on a Ford F250 as a back load. I just wish I had a better camera as I could only take these in the garden so have put a few effects the make them look a little more realistic.
