Huzzah!

Beautiful. I have to throw mine away now .

Very nice job.

Very Nice work!!

Bravo!! 

Thanks for the comments guys, like I said it has been fun.  

With all the great builds that are going on I don't know how anybody is going to be able 

to choose any winners.  Perhaps this is a time and place for the "participation trophy" 

because everyone I have seen is a winner

definitely over the top!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing Build!!! Bookmarked for sure. Weathering is awesome!!!

Rick,

Beautiful job on the crane/loader. Love the weathering. Thanks for jumping in this year and also for sticking with a crane. It's a fantastic build. 

Rick:

I love your model. One thing I particularly appreciate is the painting/weathering of the metal, particularly the steam engine. Would you be amenable to showing how you do that more step by step, maybe on a scrap bit of material, in another topic on the site so it is easy to find? I bet I'm not the only one that would find it helpful.

Cheers, and thanks for participating!

Hello R.W.!

Hope all is well with you.  That is a great looking crane, nice job!

Hope to post some project images here soon.

Have fun!
