Decided to get some "Waterford Crane Hire" decals made for all my standard coloured models because they just looked too plain. I have to say thanks to Birger at Dream Dock for making them because they turned out great and also to gbarnewall, because if it wasn't for Graham I wouldn't have even knowing about Dream Dock Teeth

Liebherr LTM 1050-3.1






Liebherr LTF 1060-4.1






Liebherr LTM 1200-5.1

Nice job Sam. Birger does a great job on decals and he has done mine for several years now. I just haven't had the time to go back to my last big project and get it finished Sad

Great looking fleet samApplause Applausewasn't expecting you to redo your liebherrs..love the hook block decal Teeth your design??.

I know big hamish on the way but would you do a standard LTM 11200 in these decals?? i would think with that huge canvas of carrier,boom & outriggers that it would be a fantastic ''what if'' model..

Thanks Aubrey Teeth Yeah the hook block is going to be our new logo, its not on any of the real cranes yet d'oh!

As for a 11200, I was thinking about that myself. But its a hell of a big jump from a 1300 to a 11200 and I just don't think there is enough work for it down here in the south-east Teeth Cool Whistle I was also thinking about getting a standard ac500 and putting the decals on it, but I don't see that happening til after Big Hamish Teeth

sexy work Sam! the decals make 'em look alot better now, I like th eidea too of the 112 and ac500,and LR1280 lr1300 cc8800 Wink Wink

Nice chainage too,can I ask did you make them yourself?

Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

Thanks GrahamCool and the ac1000 and ltm1350 when they come out Cool and hopefully a ltm1500Pray

No I cant take credit for the chains, a lad on ebay makes and sells em'. I got a couple of spreader bars off him also and their great. Just search "chains" in models and you'll find em'Teeth

Unfortunately yes! I had to strip down the outriggers because of a wonky decal and some overspray issues. In fact, I am now on my fourth attempt d'oh!

I also still have the upper structure to paint and also the boom..................
