Yes it is a lovely colour scheme. But I think Borgers still pips it for me!

Wiesbauer LG1550 SL by YCC Models:

I have had this model for over 12 years and it has always been on display. I decided to give it a bit of a clean and take a few photos this week and I think she still looks amazing!

Great photos Paul, I love this 1550 model. I am glad you are still posting as it seems this site and even the german site slowing down significantly. I don't know if the collecting hobby is dying out because of overall costs of living or maybe just lack of interest? Not as many heavy equipment enthusiasts anymore or something. I know in my province of Alberta we are having massive issues with finding people to work and we are offering a lot of money and still nothing??? Big mystery.

I think both Hansebube and DHS have slowed down, but DHS more so. Hansebube still has some good stuff for custom builds and the real equipment.

As for labour shortages, same deal here though Brexit had a big impact on European labour coming to the UK.

All the best,

Applause Love those close-up shots.Shows off,just how much detail is in that model.Far fewer articulated trucks/tractor trailers,on the road.I can imagine how expensive wages,fuel,etc are,for any European long distance operators.

Hey AM, hope you've been great. I think in general forums are drying up a lot. Social media platforms make it much easier to facilitate upload and sharing of pics and vids, albeit without the optimization of interaction afforded by a forum. It is definitely a lot more work to jump through the hoops of posting pics on this forum then to do a batch upload to Instagram. Hopefully there will someday be a hybridized app that offers the ease of social media for image upload and sharing with the interaction of a forum platform without having to dig through the comment section of a particular social media post.
The downturn of the economy will definitely limit sales, but there are some amazing models on the horizon like the NZG Liebherr LR11000 which can be produced in many different liveries. :D

Nice to hear from you Chandler, it's been a while. Yea I can't wait to see what liveries they come out with on the LR 11000. I am kind of hoping for a Space X version. I don't have Facebook or Instagram as I try to stay off those social media platforms so it may get pretty quiet for me in the future!!
