Hi...

The models come from different suppliers with different ideas..

My B50 was from Frank ( Fumotec models ) he also makes a B40 as well. His models are made from a heavy gauge steel plate and come in kit form and allow the modeller to finish them - He also sells them complete if you want?
The fumotec are designed for hard work... but they are very heavy - my B50 weighed in about 20kgs

My B35, comes from THS and is made from brass and steel, it's fairly heavy at around 14kgs. But also has all the scale detail. The paint finish is 2 pack... it will get marked - but I bought them to use them.

I'm off to a friends house next Saturday - so will post some videos.
