Thanks for showing these tremendous photos Paul, it gives us collectors a birds eye view of the models before deciding whether to buy or not the models. the Donnell & Ellis and Chris Bennetts are on my shopping list but unsure of the Heanor Looking at the photos of the real truck, the rear wheel arches are one complete mudguard like the East West,Wj Law and the W,O,Scotland all PCM commisions. So why the ugly looking mudguards ?????????????????? Heanor will be a maybe, but i like the photos of the Eisele Well done Paul, tell Christian to cut you in for some commission. LOL

Just a small update of an existing model. I asked Hummer13 (Jason) to build me a load to match the real one that the Kohler Schwerlast truck has hauled. Here is the real one, courtesy of Heavy Transport WorldAnd here is my truck with Jasons creation: Personally I think he did a great job! Paul R

Wow, that's an amazing piece of scratch building May I ask what it's made from?. It almost looks like copper but would it be plastic?.

Tell me about it the parts I purchased for the turbine load was over $100 Glad you liked it Paul, sorry I missed those 3 small pieces I just never saw them til now. I guess this is going to be the year of trailer loads and excavator buckets I like doing these large loads makes these heavy haul trucks look so much better. Anyone have any ideas let me know Jason NIkl Scale Models

Jeff This is what I hope to do but there are no hooks on the trailers so I have not yet figured out a way to do this. Would add to the authenticity though! Paul R
