If you read the RPO thread you saw that I picked up these kits. I started building the crane yesterday. It's a lot of parts, but if you take your time it should be a nice model.
I'm taking in-process photos I'll post here (and on my blog) as I go.
This is what it's supposed to end up looking like:
Step one is assembling the weight box (to be filled with BBs later) and the trucks.
Step two is to assemble the undercarriage. Two photos here, one mid-step, one completed.
Step three is to start assembling the boom.
So far, so good. One thing I'm missing is any photos of a GN wrecking crane so I know how they lettered them. Still looking around for that.
