KRR Asphalt Modified

[Dragline]

A really strange kit to me. Unrefined in many places for such a new tool. Instruction manual leaves a bit to be desired. On the plus, the decals are by Cartograf so....

Just a bit clunky in places and the plating is real metal. That means you just don't scrape it bare like the old stuff. It's tough as nails! I am having one heck of a time with the wheels to get them together. I think the Dremel is getting broke out tonight.

It is said you need to build a kit twice. We shall see.

A few new shots. The decals are almost done and they were a joy. Warmish to med hot water and almost no solvent. The silver decals on the engine cover were a concern. No need, they laid down very well. The sizing on the sides were perfect. Enough to wrap around in places and carry the line through the panel. Well thought out and the colors are sharp and bright. The closer it gets to finished the more bummed I am getting. I plan on a red one next and brake, fuel and harness will be added. But, I have a few more kits in front of that.

Looks like it’s coming together well…this one has been on my to-get list for a while!
