Default Re: 1/25 6 Axle Lattice Crane

Here's an update on this li'l project. I've started on the carrier's deck and bodywork. Styrene is my old comfort zone, it's nice to be working in it here. The cab is styrene, I penciled in the windows for now, but they'll be cut in time.


The raised fender areas will be covered in diamond plate, painted to look like aluminum. The rest of the deck will be whatever color i decide on for the bodywork, to look like steel.



I like how the rear fenders look, leaving the frame extending where the outrigger attaches. Both the front and rear outriggers will remain detachable for transport mode.


That's how it looks as of this writing. More later. Dan
