I was thinking the same. If that was pictured outside you could be mistaken for thinking it was a real one. Applause

Woah, that is amazing!. What's the chassis made out of and did you use any of the NZG 797b parts?.

I know we're being spoiled for choice with dump truck releases but a new, more detailed 797b would definately be sitting in my model room!.

Scania V8. The best sounding truck in the world.

STUNNING! One of the best things I have seen on here! More more more.
Where do you get your technical info from?

I have the NZG version, but it looks rather bare compared with these pics!

What a awesome piece of artwork !!
It doesn't matter if it is made of steel, plastic or even made of paper , it is obvious it is a true labor of love . Us toy folks sure are lucky to still get so much enjoyment from this fun hobby. I had a fellow from China send me a awesome scratch-built working tractor and it was made from poster board paper. It was just awesome !! Even after I have now built over 200 different steel models I still enjoy seeing everyone elses projects. Even if it is made out of paper.
Thanks for sharing your awesome project !!
