"OLD. BUT RUNS!" - Scania LB 141 Tractor

[tiking]

It’s been mix feelings with this Heller kit. But seeing that it was a very old kit and compromises were taken into account, I now learn my way around such discrepancies in this kit. All-in-all, it was an ‘OK’ build, despite my frustrations. Barlas Pehlivan, was also kind to help answer some of my annoying questions, concerning this kit. So kudos to him.
My apologies for the pics. I will take better ones later. It was very windy outside today and I could not get the right photos I wanted. Oh well, you can’t win every time. 🙂 Hope you enjoy the photos regardless.

I also added some wip photos o the interior, as it was difficult to get good shots of the interior after the roof and doors were install.

Another masterpiece of weathering and detail. I've said it before, your eye for weathering is spot-on, just the right amount in all the right places. Always a joy to see your work!

Incredible piece. Once again, only a true master sees the flaws in his work, casual observers see perfection.
Very nice build. I'm always amazed how life-like your models are. The fruit in the cabin are super cool!

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you kindly. It is true. We do see the faults in our builds. I for one am never satisfied. There is always something that can or could be done to enhance a model, even after completion.

Very nice Charles, as usual.
Also I wanted to build a 141, but just find theme expensive (and I worked at the italian Heller distributor where they costed 5 kr at the time.. FIVE kronors..)

Barlas made a super model, but also your one is really cool with all those dust effects.

I think soon I will start build a cab for Volvo F89.

bra jobb.

Thank you. Yeah. I know him well. He has helped with many of my questions concerning this build. His build inspired me to build mine.
