Frusso: Do you know if the Minibrindes CAT D4E had rhinestone lights on front and rear, or were they just painted white on the lens? I have one in impeccable condition, but I think it would look better with rhinestone lights. Your Komatsu dozers are gorgeous also. What paint did you use? Craig

Craig, good morning!

this D4 model is very cool! I have one too, he's from minimac. The headlights are painted and would look better with rhinestone for sure. About the paint, I do not know what color it is but I can check if it's of interest. I send my models for painting, I live in an apartment and I can not paint my models...

Frusso: Two of your Komatsu dozers appear to be made by Diapet. Who made the other two? CAW

Terex TTS14. It was one OHS Euclid TTS14 with bad tires and paint. I decide change tires and paint in TEREX color!

Impressive fit and finish! Painting is definitely one of my weak-points, but yours is very good! Frusso, do you use airbrush or rattle can? Thanks for sharing your work with us.


Also, is that a Poclain 220 in the background?

Dear Dex, good afternoon!

I do not paint my models. I live in a apartment, so I send my models to my friend Bernardo that use airbrush to paint them.

You will see the Poclain 220 in a few day. I'm posting models one per day ususally and this model will be here soon!

My first modified model. I received it in a damaged paper envelope. I decided to risk this model. It was assembled in 2004

Hi Felipe,

I can remember your cable dozer D9G, the D8H is new to me. But my favourite clearly is the D455A, great job! Did you improve the rear radiator? I'm curious about the D155, too. Has an amazingly well detailed engine.

A set of D11 metal tracks on the D455A wuld be something...


What will come next ?!

Max, good evening!
Actually the D455A was an amazing job, I really enjoyed the final look for sure! I do not made a detailed radiator. The idea of putting the metal tracks from D11 would be incredible, however, they are hard to find, but would be nice to see one with htese!!!

The D155A was made using two models, one APRA D8K and one TD25 First Gear. The engine is from TD25, as well as tracks and wheels. It's a modification that really takes a lot of work!

Many thanks for the compliment DKS, but I believe they have very qualified people and do not need me.

I took the liberty of putting the post on the D8K because I am passionate about the machine and would like to see everyone's opinion on the subject, not just mine, as I am not an expert on the subject.

I hope they make a great model as they usually do!!!
