Well, I am finally done with my ringer. It's been a lot of hard work, but I am very happy with the way it turned out. I really put my heart and soul into this project.
I took a bunch of pics tonight using two different back drops. The back drops are from pictures I took years ago at a steel mill. I had them blown up to poster size.
Let me know what you guys think.

And it really shows my friend. You are THE BEST when it comes to weathering and I have learned a lot just in the small amount of info I have picked up. Maybe Master Craftsman would be a better choice of words. THANKS for sharing.

Best set of of pic's ever on this forum.
Hard to figure out if it's not the real thing in some pic's.
Good pictures also you have more than one talent.

(ps put some spaces between the the pic's then they will look even better )

I am really at a loss for words here. You had me fooled on it being the real deal.

Hands down, you are the best!

WOW!!, that is impressive, If not for the white platform underneath, I would swear it was a real crane! awesome backdrop too, mind if I ask where one would get something like that?

Stunning... I really don't know what else to say! The backdrops suit perfectly! All you need now is some muddy ground pictures to stick underneath the setup!

Really exquisite. I trust you have some plans to perhaps display this work at a model show or expo?
