Once again, great work! It is always fun to see what people have done with our models. Remember one of the Zenmaster's principles:

"Everything you buy is just a bag of parts and should be studied for it’s component uses."

We love to see kitbashes!

Keep up the great work, and share whatever you have!

Yes it is, I get about 3 or 4 request a year for O.D. green which is fine by me, yellow gets old after awhile.

So with people coming and going and " other " things hitting the fan I sort of got side tracked,picked this up at a show for a buck guy said it was all messed up and not even worth a buck. Well one man's trash is an other man's treasure :)

Yeah its not messed up that bad missing a few parts but we'll make it work.

Ok the holidays are over ! and it's still raining here so time to play,Hope to have them painted by week's end ? Photo's 2,3,4,7 and 8 are 3D printed the guy that designed the kits did a bang up job but the place that does the printing I'm like mmmmmmmm I will pass on comments now and wait till I have them done but I can only hope all the ridges will be hidden by the paint. Still up in the air about the color for the JD backhoe ??? liking the green but leaning to yellow.

I have a few more things down the pike to get done and post then when I'm done I'm thinking about doing the GHQ Intermodal Crane but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it I opened the kit and looked at it and I'm not sure if I'm up to it ???? So it's good to be back and I hope others will post there GHQ builds.
