Heavy Construction Loading

This is roughly complete, I'm still working on the details and placement. Been re-arranging the placement of the vehicles more and more to find the perfect spot. Working on finding descent figures. There will also be a flood light and a trailer stopper under the wheels.

Slowly but surely things are hopefully falling into position. More weathering here and there. before calling it quits. The scale I'm working on is 1/35. The theme is simple and is part of usual transport method, in certain countries. Not sure if it is done every exactly, but have seen several types of methods being used to put a front loader into a shipping container. This is just one of the methods used. Hope you all like the images. Apology for the bad photos. Will take better ones when done.

If this wasn't posted on a modelforum, I would have thought it is real. Exceptional work
