Deere-est Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 That really is beyond words, in a good way! Such a clean and tidy build before the paint being added and then once you have added it, it transforms ito even more of a masterpiece. Amazing piece of work, it really is.

No Stan these are separate commissions as a result of magazine exposure from Moira, but this is truly the last of them, such a time consuming and complicated build. May consider redesigning and simplifying the build in future, but not quite ready to break into the excavator model side of things just yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

844john Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Very, very nice Ian, how you have the patience and the motivation to do more than one I'll never know. I keep looking at the two 3cx's that i haven't yet finished whenever i get a bit of time spare but i just can't get motivated enough to pick up where i left off. Mind, at the moment i feel that way about all my unfinished builds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind, at the moment i feel that way about all my unfinished builds! Thanks John, I'll admit it's very easy to get stuck in a rut and once you stop half way through, like you said, it's hard to get back into where you left off. The fact that I'm building these for customers and don't want to let anyone down, is what keeps the pressure on to finish. If I was building for myself, I'd probably never get around to it Try breaking the build down into smaller jobs and concentrate on finishing each job at a time, that usually works for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
