Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24

Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24

Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24

I decided to make the luffing jib as well and I am almost done. Only the pendants need to be made.

Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24

I got inspired by this crane again and started to add the jib.
There is a fixed jib and a luffing jib available and they share many basic parts. So I started to make some of the parts that can be...

Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24

Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24

Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24

I decided to use this trailer to transport the boom. It is the counterweight trailer for the Krupp 180GMT and is scale 1/20, but the difference is hardly noticeable. I used some timber to raise the...

Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24

Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24

Most of the painting is done. It took a long time, partly due to lack of time, but also to the bad weather. I did all the spraying on a bench outside and although it was covered the wind and the rain...
