Looking better with each picture!! This is truly a great model. Can't wait to see it "in the dirt". Great job

it looks beautiful! But in a way it is a shame it's finished. I really enjoyed following this project.
So, what is next?

That is one fine looking model. I think it put the 'scale' in scale model. It couldn't have turned out nicer. It looks great just sitting there. It doesn't even have to be in the dirt to look good! I think it would look equally well in the dirt, as it would as a trailer load!

Awesome !!!!

It's really inspiring to see what you have achieved and certainly raises the rib for my own efforts (in particular in terms of bringing the build to an end :o:o). Now, think I have to get down to the workshop right away... :D:D:D

Very nice to see done. I'll miss seeing your updates like the others have commented. Just to get a feel for the overall size of this grader, can you take a picture with you holding the model or standing next to it?

Soooo... What do you have in store for us to watch on your next build?

What a beautiful work of art. That big guy came out amazing. I can't believe that the machine is rc as it looks so realistic in the last few pics. I can't wait to see the vids of it.

Most impressive build! Hope to see it in person some day.
Those grader builds seems to be top notch nowdays. Will be looking forward to see more models coming from your workshop!

Thanks again guys for your nice words.
I haven´t got any in action videos done yet cause the weather has been poor and the spring took few steps back.
I added some lights to the grader while waiting the weather to warm up:)

I´ve also been thinking what to build next, and my next project might be a Cat 374D L excavator;)

Very nice. With the right background I would have a hard time telling it from a 1:1 machine.
Yes I agree with Stefan, Need some wear on the mold board but it does look great all painted up.;) I have a friend that restored a 1948 Cat 212 grader and it took about 4yrs before it saw dirt on the blade and I was the one who got to try it out and wear some paint off.:p

Nice pictures! The blade should be shiny (silver) by now!
