Black Forest Customs

I'm still stuck looking round his workspace---Wooden boxes and Baufix thinners need I say more..

Thomas seems to be well organized in order to maximize his minimal space.

Hi Gentleman, I´m back at the playground.
I didn´t do that much customs last year, but still have some older which I didn´t have shown yet.

This one, a short wheel base Landy, I wanted to do since very long, so I started in summer. And it was a very hard one, took me weeks and month. (Tinman would have done this one in one afternoon )

Here you see, what I removed from the body

together

But, somehow, it looks stupid. The overhang at the back is too long.

So, cut again. And cut again the baseplate, interieur, windows .

Much better now.

Here the result.

I like the 88 Landy - and did the same bud a bid different.

Oh yes! Very nice work. And your cut with the new wheel-arch looks easier to achieve.

Another fantastic "cut n shut." Looks positively stellar. I know this was a labor intensive project and you really did a wonderful job. Nice paint choice as well.

Here´s another one.

Parts before assembling

What a beautiful casting.

I've been waiting to see the finished Foden crane truck custom. It's even better than what I imagined, first rate work! It makes my Foden crane truck look like a half baked hack job lol.

That is a stunning looking model. Everything about it looks right to me, even the chosen colours are perfect, 10/10 from me Thomas.

Somehow, I missed the photos of the Unimog Dumper until just now. What a Bad-Ass (can I say that here?) truck that is!!!!! I have simply got to make one, mine will never look that great but I've got to try (oooh, me want Unimog dumper).
